Somewhere between a B and B-. Huge trade right prior to season after staying relatively pat on a WCF team. Knew it would take time to gel but they were too bipolar all year. Winning two postseason series is still a heck of an accomplishment.
Tough part is you have the pieces to be the 2 in the west but that’s not good enough. Don’t really know how you blow it up to try compete with okc but it’s pretty hard to play Rudy against this team. Huge offseason looming
I went with an "A" but only because "A-" wasn't an option. After the KAT trade, I gave this roster zero chance to make the WCF this year. Our start to the season was mediocre at best but our finish was strong after this group became more cohesive.
We beat the shit out of the Lakers which for me personally is worth a B+ on its own and I apologize as a fan to noone that Curry got injured. You beat who's in front of you.
Am I satisfied as a Wolves fan? Hell no. Connelly has his work cut out for him this offseason.
Traded KAT and still ended up right where they were with KAT last year. Back to back western conference finals appearances is still an A looking at the history of this sorry franchise.
They will need to continue to rebuild around Ant and take the next step over the next few years.
