I'm pretty much where you are and also thought that they overachieved early on. I think Boston and Denver are the only tier 1 contenders, but must agree that those odds look pretty good for MN if Edwards can cash them out.

Everyone in the West has a brutal path to the Finals. Thought MN would've faded a bit as the season wore on; that maybe they overachieved early. Doesn't seem to be the case. Besides Denver, I'd give them as good a chance as anyone else in the West. NBA overall Boston looks like they're on a mission to wash a certain taste out their mouth, and I don't know what Wolve's odds are to win West, but anything over +600 sounds tempting. Yeah, they're a contender, along with prolly 5 other teams imo.

Minnesota Timberwolves as a Legitimate Contender?
