My buddy seems to think he knows EVERYTHING about the NBA and his hometown Timberwolves. Hoops can remember when Met Stadium stood big and proud, when he “braved the elements to watch the Purple People Eaters at his young age and he recalls fondly when he was one of the more than a million-plus fans who trekked to Metrodome to watch the expansion T’Wolves. Hoops can remember a Musselman, a Havlicek and a pump fake but a Politician, forget about it (maybe that’s a good thing).
So, Hoops and I were reminiscing after watching a recent road win in Atlanta when he blurted out, “Hey, I bet it’s kinda’ cool for KG to be the oldest cat around the office now.
