Wolves All-Time Team



Since there is not really much to talk about right now when it comes to the Wolves, with free agency and the draft still a month away, I feel like we could use a little bit of debate to liven up the Hoopussphere©. So I want to find out, if you could put 12 Wolves from any era to make a team, who would you pick? This is not simply naming the 12 best Wolves of all time, it is about finding the 12 Wolves players that would be the best on the court together. Think of it as a Timberwolves version of Bill Simmons "The Wine Cellar" chapter in The Book of Basketball (i.e. The chapter where he picks a team of players that would have the best shot at beating random Aliens in a game). My picks are below the jump. I included additional categories as well for your enjoyment.
