It’s time for the next movement. I like to call these players those that are right on the cusp of being known but not quite. Their play catches non-hoop heads and non-ballers by surprise. Today I decided I’m giving you the players that are going to have the most effect on their teams the key being that they are not already stars.
Minnesota Timberwolves

Western Conference.
And the BIGGEST LOSER of the 2008 NBA DRAFT is:
Kevin McHale and The Minnesota Timberwolves:
This is more of a Career Achievement Award for McHale- who don't get me wrong, had an okay draft, his best in years. Love is a good player, to me a possible Elton Brand type, which would be a great coup. He also landed sharpshooter Mike Miller, got rid of Marco Jaric's contract and turned this team around a bit. That being said, you have just traded the cornerstone of your franchise in Kevin Garnett. It is time to search for franchise defining replacements and two years in a row you have traded the most polarizing star in each draft. In trading Brandon Roy and OJ Mayo two drafts in a row you have traded potential star power for solid prospects. This is not what the Wolves fans and franchise need. They need a defiant face, name and star!!!
