Verdict

The Minnesota Timberwolves are going to be a good team this season. They will have ups and down as they learn to play together, but this is a good team. Barring any unforeseen injuries (knock on wood), this squad should be able to break this playoff drought we all hate talking about.

But…

The Golden State Warriors are the Golden State Warriors. They have two of the top five players on the planet in their starting lineup. This team will, more than likely, represent the western conference for the fourth straight year. They will be heavy favorites in every game they play. This team might be one of the best to ever be assembled.
