With Jimmy Butler finally traded from the Minnesota Timberwolves, it feels like the Wolves season is just truly beginning, as if we can finally take a breath and take stock of the true makeup of the team. Going into the season we were prepared for another go-around on the Timberbulls train, hopefully getting further into the playoffs with the young cornerstones Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins taking a step forward. That mindset was quickly blown to smithereens by the Butler debacle and continuous public dragging of this franchise.
But with our collective purgatory ending, we suddenly have a team to talk about.
