The Minnesota Timberwolves are expected to introduce a new style of basketball this year after looking like they were stuck in the Stone Age for much of the Tom Thibodeau era.
New head coach Ryan Saunders has embraced many modern aspects of the game that allow teams to be more efficient, and his youth will allow him to adapt much easer than Thibs did during his time in Minnesota.
New president of basketball operations Gersson Rosas comes from the Daryl Morey tree in Houston that has been on the forefront of the modern NBA in utilizing analytics to exploit inefficiencies across the league.
