Jimmy Butler is gone. Tom Thibodeau is gone. Yet the Minnesota Timberwolves continue to play without a collective sense of urgency.
Despite a strong stretch of play from Karl-Anthony Towns, the rest of the team, including supposed second star Andrew Wiggins, is failing to show much of anything.
It’s almost as if the team is simply waiting for the season to be over so they can start again with a clean slate in the fall. Someone needs to step up and show leadership if the Wolves are going to have a shot at correcting this sinking vessel.
