As the Golden State Warriors try to win a second consecutive title, tonight’s Game 1 of the NBA Finals against Kevin Love and the Cleveland Cavaliers is a reminder that the Timberwolves could have had the Golden State guard who made it all possible.
Steph Curry? Sure.
Or Klay Thompson.
Or, in dreams, both.
But if we’re going to alter history, we also have to accept that the currently promising Timberwolves might not have acquired some of the people who make them so promising had they landed Curry and/or Thompson a few years ago.
