Did I hear that correctly?!
(WOW!)
I had to stop what I was eating, and pay attention!
And when you finally had my attention, Thibs, I heard this from Woj:

Oh my gosh….how much more could I take….
Apparently, a lot more! Here’s how I felt:

Thank You for reviving my fandom!
I knew on the day you were hired, that you were going to establishing a winning culture in Minnesota, that the Timberwolves will be relevant soon.
