They gave up over 30 points every quarter in the loss, and Anthony Davis or Marc Gasol didn’t even play. They are the defending champions, I get it, but it was still yet another baffling per...26274Wed, 17 Mar 2021 16:30:50 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/what-does-a-trade-for-john-collins-or-aaron-gordon-look-like-r26273/Here we are at the trade deadline, and the Minnesota Timberwolves need a power forward. If only we knew before the season that they would need a power forward who was better than Juancho Hernangomez. But sometimes these things come as total surprises and, before you know it, you’re trying to talk...26273Wed, 17 Mar 2021 10:30:20 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/no-the-wolves-absolutely-shouldnt-trade-dangelo-russell-r26268/The NBA trade deadline is just 15 days away, but there are no moves the Minnesota Timberwolves could make to salvage this season. All they can do is facilitate future assets. Part of the fanbase believes that trading D’Angelo Russell would be worth the payoff down the line, but I beg to differ. A...26268Wed, 10 Mar 2021 16:00:27 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/timberwolves-cards-you-should-buy-r26267/If you paid attention to anything I’ve been doing lately (which I highly recommend against), you know that I’ve gone off the deep end in the sports card community. The Minnesota Timberwolves aren’t a particularly exciting team to watch. That means the current value of their players isn’t very exc...26267Wed, 10 Mar 2021 11:30:29 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/the-wolves-should-be-a-publicly-traded-company-r26264/I promised myself that this would be my week off, but then Kevin Garnett nuked Glen Taylor, and Timberwolves Twitter was set ablaze. Somehow this team is un-followable, and yet there are more things to write about than ever. The Big Ticket, not big enough? K.G. informed the world that he was out...26264Fri, 05 Mar 2021 11:00:14 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/the-wolves-cant-score-without-beasley-and-rubio-is-upset-r26261/Is it just me or does it seem like it’s been six months since the Minnesota Timberwolves fired Ryan Saunders and hired Chris Finch as their head coach? What’s happened since then: The NBA Coach’s Association blasted them. Malik Beasley was suspended for 12 games. And Ricky Rubio kind of fired som...26261Wed, 03 Mar 2021 10:30:08 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/the-ricky-rubio-reunion-looks-like-its-going-to-be-short-lived-r26260/There were good feelings when the Minnesota Timberwolves dealt for Ricky Rubio on draft night last year. He had just tweeted about his disdain for the business of the NBA following a trade that sent him to the Oklahoma City Thunder a year after he had signed a 3-year, $51 million contract with the...26260Tue, 02 Mar 2021 17:30:09 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/chris-finch-made-two-key-changes-against-milwaukee-r26254/If you solely went box-score hunting to find out what happened in Tuesday night’s game, you wouldn’t have been surprised: The Milwaukee Bucks throttled the Minnesota Timberwolves, 139-112. It was a familiar scene. Wolves looked good early, then fell apart. And even though they hadn’t lost a game b...26254Wed, 24 Feb 2021 10:30:49 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/the-wolves-roster-was-built-for-chris-finch-to-coach-it-r26253/Put your scuba gear on folks, because today we’re going 10,000 leagues under the lakes of Minnesota on this Chris Finch deep-dive. Ready for a polar plunge? https://youtu.be/ff8LEx9Mw54?t=255 Some know Finch as the dark-horse candidate from the head coaching “search” in 2019. Others may remember...26253Tue, 23 Feb 2021 16:30:10 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/gersson-rosas-is-officially-on-the-clock-r26252/The practice of hiring and firing in the world of professional sports is fraught with peril. Dreams get shattered, legacies can be affected, and relationships are tested. It’s a full-contact experience where, more often than not, no one leaves unscathed. This is especially true when it comes to th...26252Tue, 23 Feb 2021 09:30:39 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/the-wolves-should-have-handled-this-better-r26251/It wasn’t necessarily that the Minnesota Timberwolves fired Ryan Saunders that was the problem. It was how they did it. Disclosure before we continue: I’m a huge fan of Ryan Saunders the person. When I was laid off by the Timberwolves, Saunders called. On the anniversary of my mom’s death, Saunde...26251Tue, 23 Feb 2021 14:30:50 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/chris-finch-is-the-latest-piece-of-rosas-puzzle-r26250/The seemingly inevitable departure of Ryan Saunders is finally here. There has been a growing sentiment of disdain for Saunders at the helm since the moment he took the position. Sure, there were “good vibes” and “a family culture,” but all of that was underscored by the constant drone of losing....26250Mon, 22 Feb 2021 09:05:10 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/minnesota-did-well-in-the-2020-draft-r26245/I know, I know. It doesn’t seem right to pen a positive article about the Minnesota Timberwolves given how their season has gone so far given that their 7-20 record is the worst in the league. But Minnesotans need some positivity right now. It’s -55 degrees right now and there’s a 50/50 chance you...26245Tue, 16 Feb 2021 15:00:42 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/katman-returns-r26243/Our beloved Karl-Anthony Towns has returned! What a night for Minnesota Timberwolves fans. Sure, it felt like your average Wolves choke job after they relinquished a six-point lead at halftime, but the score isn’t important. What is important is what happens moving forward. To briefly touch on the...26243Thu, 11 Feb 2021 11:30:13 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/how-are-these-former-wolves-players-doing-r26239/We’re already at the point in the season where writing about the Minnesota Timberwolves every week can be exhausting. What do you say about a team that is 6-17? Of course, you’d love to have Karl-Anthony Towns back. That’s the only glimmer of hope we’re holding on to. The Wolves will be better wh...26239Tue, 09 Feb 2021 06:30:23 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/last-weekend-in-okc-should-give-the-wolves-some-hope-r26238/Hey folks, Chelanga and Dylan here from the CnD NBA Podcast. We’re writing together to celebrate a Minnesota Timberwolves win on Friday and almost-win on Saturday. You can find the first article we wrote together here. Today, we’ll talk about how this weekend has given us hope for the rest of this...26238Mon, 08 Feb 2021 11:30:04 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/how-can-we-leave-this-season-feeling-good-r26232/We can probably agree that this season hasn’t gone according to plan for the Minnesota Timberwolves. We don’t need to talk about who to blame yet. But to keep this season entertaining, what should fans be looking for? What needs to happen during the remainder of the season for fans to feel optimi...26232Tue, 02 Feb 2021 15:00:10 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/is-there-a-reason-to-be-optimistic-about-the-wolves-r26227/Here we are, 15 games into the season, and the Minnesota Timberwolves are 4-11 — last in the Western Conference. Of course, things haven’t been ideal for the Wolves. Karl-Anthony Towns hurt his hand, and was one of three players to miss time because of the league’s COVID protocols (Towns and Juan...26227Tue, 26 Jan 2021 06:30:19 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/its-hard-to-focus-on-basketball-with-the-nbas-covid-issues-r26222/It feels weird to focus on basketball given where we’re at with this season. On Friday, Karl-Anthony Towns announced that he tested positive for COVID-19 which is absolutely devastating given what he’s been through already. Towns joins forward Juancho Hernangomez as players for the Wolves who ha...26222Tue, 19 Jan 2021 10:30:21 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/the-next-stretch-for-the-wolves-will-be-telling-r26218/The Minnesota Timberwolves snapped their seven-game losing streak and Karl-Anthony Towns is (somewhat) healthy. Wahoo! They are coming off a 96-88 win over the San Antonio Spurs. While Towns returned in Saturday night’s loss to San Antonio in overtime, he was held out the next day against the sam...26218Tue, 12 Jan 2021 06:30:53 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/could-the-timberwolves-trade-for-marvin-bagley-iii-r26213/The last time we talked, we were wondering how the Minnesota Timberwolves would survive after injuries to Karl-Anthony Towns and Josh Okogie. Spoiler alert: When you lose an All-Star center and your best defender, it turns out it’s hard to win games! Who knew?! The Wolves have lost four-straight...26213Tue, 05 Jan 2021 06:30:31 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/dont-panic-about-the-wolves-getting-swept-in-la-r26211/When I make my girlfriend mad or sad, she makes me say three nice things to her. Since these Minnesota Timberwolves have made us all so mad and sad in the last two days, I have chosen to only say nice things about them, at least three of these things. Plus, Tom Schreier has been begging me to keep...26211Wed, 30 Dec 2020 10:30:03 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/who-needs-to-step-up-in-towns-absence-r26209/After a great 2-0 start, the Minnesota Timberwolves received a flurry of bad news on Sunday night. The first, shortly before tipoff against the Los Angeles Lakers, was that star center Karl-Anthony Towns would be out indefinitely with a wrist injury. It’s the same left wrist that he broke last se...26209Mon, 28 Dec 2020 20:00:11 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/3-takeaways-from-the-wolves-116-111-win-in-utah-r26208/Last night the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Utah Jazz 116-111 and for once in my life, I feel happy. I’m kidding, but I do want to soak this feeling up. The Wolves face the LA teams next and I fear that those games may not go as well as this. I’ve been a Wolves fan for long enough to know that...26208Sun, 27 Dec 2020 10:00:27 +0000https://wolvesdaily.com/news-rumors/timberwolves-news/3-truths-and-a-lie-from-the-wolves-111-101-win-over-detroit-r26206/Today I’ve been given the task of Thursday morning quarterbacking the home opener. As Vegas expected (our Kyle Ratke had Wolves -5.5 last night) and as Chelanga and I predicted on our podcast in our season preview, the Detroit Pistons are a mess. And the Timberwolves took care of business. This is...26206Thu, 24 Dec 2020 09:00:03 +0000
