As the NBA regular season starts to roll to its end, the majority of teams are already planning fishing trips after not making the NBA Playoffs. While serious season eulogies are going on over at Hardwood Paroxysm, we here at The Friendly Bounce are taking a look at the important part of each team’s season as we bid them farewell, the fun stuff. So enjoy and feel free to add your entries to each category in the comments below and follow along with the entire series over the next two weeks.

The Minnesota Timberwolves were bad again this season, no one will deny that. They were also a ton of fun this season, something again that no one will deny. They also are set up to be really good in the near future thanks to the projected star status of Karl-Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins and the core of solid young role players like Zach LaVine and Ricky Rubio. This feels like one of the last times our Wolves season recaps comes before the playoffs. Which is cool because this team is a blast.

Most Vineable Player:

Donnie Kolakowski (@Donniebuckets): Karl-Anthony Towns and it’s not close. He was one of the most Vineable players in the league this year, and can wow in so many ways. He’s a lock to be one of the most Vineable players for years in the league for years to come.

Dan Favale (@Danfavale): Karl-Anthony Towns by a landslide. You can already make the case that, in addition to being a top-15 player overall, he’s a top-10 Viner overall, too. From his dunks, to his handles, to his post moves, to his blocks, the kid is a Vine-worthy magnet.

Ryne Prinz (@Ryneprinz): It’s KAT Daddy. He’s already reaching bonafide superstar levels, and he’s creating highlights like one as well.

Matt Cianfrone (@Matt_Cianfrone): How insane is it that a team has the great dunking abilities of Andrew Wiggins and Zach LaVine and the great passing of Ricky Rubio and yet still has another player that is the most Vineable on the team? KAT is the answer.

10 Word Recaps:

Karl-Anthony Towns is here, and everyone else is now doomed. (Donnie)

Trust our process. It is better than Philly’s. We promise. (Dan)

The Wolves sport the best young core in the league. (Ryne)

Titles are coming, this season was just the beginning. (Matt)
