As of now, those three moves are it. Those are the positive moves Kahn has made during his three years in Minnesota. Look at some of the other names that “highlight” Kahn’s selections on draft nights: Jonny Flynn, Wes Johnson and Ty Lawson. These are the “named” players who are known by most fans, but for mostly negative reasons. Flynn was selected by Minnesota immediately after they selected Rubio, passing on the opportunity for Steph Curry. Wes Johnson has been a huge disappointment by nearly all accounts in his two-year career and Minnesota passed on DeMarcus Cousins. Lawson was a solid pick, but was a selection made to immediately trade as a deal was already in place.
As successful as the 2011-12 NBA season was as a whole for the Timberwolves, they very easily could have sent a starting lineup on the court of Rubio, Curry, Beasley, Love and Cousins. More than likely, that is a playoff team with a much better core to build around, many steps ahead of where the team stands now.
