About Minnesota Timberwolves

The Minnesota Timberwolves joined the NBA for the 1989-90 season as part of a two-phase league expansion that also brought in Orlando, Miami, and Charlotte. But the Timberwolves weren't the first pro basketball franchise in Minneapolis. The Minneapolis Lakers of the early 1950s had been the dominant team of that era. Led by 6-10 George Mikan, the first great pro center, the Lakers won five titles in the six years between 1949 and 1954. 

Local businessmen Harvey Ratner and Marv Wolfenson brought basketball back to the Twin Cities. Friends since boyhood, the pair had made their fortunes in real estate and a health club chain. With the help of a task force headed by George Mikan, they initially made offers for the Milwaukee Bucks, the San Antonio Spurs and the Utah Jazz, all of which were for sale. Those deals fell through, but in 1987 the NBA voted to add four teams over the next two seasons. Charlotte and Miami were added for the 1988-89 season, and Orlando and Minnesota were added for 1989-90. 

By NBA standards, the 1995-96 season was another struggle for the Minnesota Timberwolves. However, after four straight seasons of 60 or more losses, the Timberwolves came to the finish line in 1995-96 with an emerging superstar and a record of 26-56, then the second-best season in their seven-year history. 

Progress came in bunches, thanks in large part to some wholesale changes that provided the Timberwolves with an injection of new life. In December, Bill Blair was replaced at the coaching helm by Phil "Flip" Saunders. Saunders, a college teammate of Kevin McHale at the University of Minnesota and later an assistant coach with the Golden Gophers, was a two-time CBA Coach of the Year. 

Garnett, selected by Minnesota with the fifth overall pick in the 1995 Draft, began his first NBA season at age 19, foregoing college basketball. Buoyed by his emergence, the Minnesota Timberwolves went 8-8 in March. It was only the second time in franchise history that the team had finished a month with a .500 or better record. Although the momentum didn't carry into April, the Timberwolves found a new foundation in Garnett, who averaged 10.4 points and 6.3 rebounds and was named to the 1995-96 All-Rookie Second Team.

The Minnesota Timberwolves finished the 2002-03 regular season with a 51-31 record, the best mark in franchise history. The season brought the club's sixth-straight .500+ campaign, in addition to its seventh consecutive postseason appearance. 

Minnesota clinched their 2003 playoff berth on March 31 and claimed the Western Conference's fourth seed with a 95-87 victory in the season finale (April 16 at Memphis). The Timberwolves fell 4-2 to the three-time defending NBA Champion Los Angles Lakers in the first round of the 2003 Playoffs.

The 2004 campaign saw a host of firsts for the Minnesota Timberwolves franchise. A supporting cast for the ?Big Ticket?, as Kevin Garnett is often referred to, had to be on the top of the list of first things needed to improve. The Timberwolves have made seven straight playoffs, but have also had seven straight first round exits. When time came to resign Garnett, he wanted assurances that more pieces would be added to help the team go farther. He got those assurances, resigned for the long term, and ownership delivered. In the offseason before 2004, the Minnesota Timberwolves signed former Knick Lattrell Sprewell, 2-time NBA champion guard with the Rockets Sam Cassell, 3-time NBA champion forward Mark Madsen of the Lakers and big man Michael Olawakandie of the Clippers. This group banded together to bring a 58 win season and a top seed in the powerful Western Conference, two more franchise firsts. The Timberwolves also disposed of first round opponent the Denver Nuggets in 5 games to move on to the second round for the first time. With an experienced group behind him, a stellar season brought Garnett his first regular season NBA MVP.
