Don't look now, but the Minnesota Timberwolves, who have been largely written off for the better part of this season, are looking like a team that could once again pose real playoff problems a year after making their Western Conference finals run.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have not been a successful franchise during much of their history by any stretch of the imagination. They have the lowest winning percentage of any NBA team who has played at least 1000 games.
