The season is just past the midway point, but it’s fair to say that the Timberwolves have a series of things that are fixable, and a series of items that are what they are.

We all know that expectations for the Timberwolves from before the season have yet to be realized.

Some see the sub-.500 record and have given up entirely. Others see that the Wolves are in the hunt for the eighth-seed in a Western Conference that has just seven truly playoff-worthy teams and see hope.

I’m telling you that there is certainly hope but not without help! The following will include temporary issues that should fix themselves or trend in the right direction with a bit of help. Then, we’ll look at a few items that could be more permanent issues.

All predictions assume the exact roster the Timberwolves currently have as of February 3rd. Enjoy.
