About
Minnesota Timberwolves History
The Timberwolves joined the NBA in the 1989 expansion that also brought the Orlando Magic into the league. The Wolves struggled during their first seven seasons, but the arrivals of first-round draft pick Kevin Garnett, general manager Kevin McHale and head coach Flip Saunders signaled a turnaround. The franchise earned its first playoff berth in the 1996–97 season — the first of eight straight years in the postseason — and its first winning record a year later.
In the 1999–00 season, led by Garnett and rookie Wally Szczerbiak, the Timberwolves posted their first 50-win season, the first of three straight years they reached that milestone. But it was not until the last year in that streak that they advanced past the first round of the playoffs.
With guards Sam Cassell and Latrell Sprewell joining the Timberwolves for the 2003–04 season, the team won their first division title and first two postseason series, eliminating the Denver Nuggets and the Sacramento Kings. They ultimately fell to the Los Angeles Lakers in the conference finals.
After Garnett was traded away in 2007, the team rebuilt around all-star Kevin Love, but failed to make the playoffs during his tenure in Minnesota. They ended a 13-year drought without a playoff appearance by finishing 47-35 in the 2017–18 season, good for second place in the Northwest Division.

The Target Center has undergone three significant renovations over the years. The last round of upgrades were unveiled at the outset of the 2017–18 season, with a newer exterior and a three-story atrium over a new entrance, home to the iconic statue of George Mikan.

Rating: 3 out of 5 NBA is not NHL
by Spitfire1300 on 2012-10-26MTS Centre - WinnipegWithout any emotional attachment to either team and no big name stars playing it was interesting to watch but it wasn't the Jets.
Rating: 3 out of 5 NBA - Entertaining
by MyShArOnA on 2012-10-26MTS Centre - WinnipegI've always wanted to see NBA live. Great energy all around but the game itself seemed a bit sloppy.I found it a touch expensive getting a bit close - which I felt was necessary to really have a good experience. Time-out and half time shows were fun. I'm glad we had some "cheering" coaching-we needed it. The Winnipeg crowd will need to learn how to be excited for the game!!!
Rating: 4 out of 5 NBA needs to come back to the Peg.

Rating: 4 out of 5by roju6 on 2012-10-26MTS Centre - Winnipeg It was great to see an NBA game back in Winnipeg again, even if it was just a preseason game. Not the best basketball as some of the main players didn't get a chance to play but was still fun to go to anyway.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Lots of Fun!!

Rating: 4 out of 5by Anonymous on 2012-01-01Target Center - Minneapolis 1st time to a game. Tickets were easily picked up, transport to the game via LRT was easy and fast. Eating selection was not that good. Selecting tickets was random and no specials came aup as it was stated during the game. Overall great night out.

by Kras224 on 2011-02-07Target Center - MinneapolisThe event was very entertaining. The wolves actually made a game of it but faltered in the last few minutes which kept the crowd into it. would go again to see another game
Rating: 4 out of 5 NBA at Syracuse was a lot of fun
by Rodgers on 2010-10-17Carrier Dome - SyracuseOur family when we have the chance enjoy going to Syracuse to watch events like the NBA exhibitiion game between the Pistons and the Timberwolves. To be able to see the game live at a reasonable price really adds to the overall enjoyment during the season as you can relate much better to the teams and the players. To have the opportunity to go to the game at a reasonable price and fairly close to home (3 hour drive) was well worth it. The Carrier Dome is a good facility and our seats were pretty good (lower level behind the basket). It was a good show and I hope the NBA goes back again to Syracuse for a game soon.
Rating: 5 out of 5 Great game
by oassis on 2010-04-12Target Center - MinneapolisIts was my first NBA game, Lakers are my fav. team. The game was great, my seats we great, the only thing I did not like is Kobe did not play.....Oh well maybe next time....
Rating: 3 out of 5 T-wolves vs Suns game was fun
by rodeshow on 2010-04-12Target Center - MinneapolisThe Hardwood Classic Pack is a good value. A decent ticket along with a free t-shirt. It's too bad that the T-wolves don't have a marquee player but the game was still pretty good. Always enjoy watching Steve Nash play in town.
