The Minnesota Timberwolves joined the NBA in 1989. Since coming into the league, they have been a very poorly run organization with zero accountability from the top, the illegal Joe Smith contract, a consistently poor product on the floor, mediocre attendance, no national recognition of its star players, and a fanbase literally begging executives to demonstrate leadership and put together a winner.
Now is the time for Timberwolves ownership to do some serious soul-searching if they ever want to turn around this morbid franchise.
The T-Wolves drafted Kevin Garnett in 1996, who would go on to be one of the greatest power forwards to ever play in the NBA, but management never put complimentary pieces around The Big Ticket.
