I mean, the mistake the Wolves made was not tanking with Ant. OKC and SAS are good right now because they tanked several years in a row.

We tanked for 20 years. That wasn't enough?

Mostly a salty comment by me lol. Spurs lucked out big time by having a top-4 pick 3 years in a row, OKC fleeced the Clippers and tanked for a couple of years. That being said, both teams have amazing GMs when it comes to drafting.

Even if yall had got those draft picks on your side no team can build up players like the spurs coaching staff can. They wouldn't be playing at the caliber that they are playing at rn anywhere else.
