Despite their success in recent seasons, the Minnesota Timberwolves' history is not much to look at. For instance, the team has made it out of the first round of the playoffs twice in its 36-year existence.

Twice this season they’ve beaten Denver. Minnesota has been stellar offensively on both occasions. It all stems from Edwards. Denver simply doesn’t have an answer for the guard. The Nuggets don’t have a premier perimeter defender to deter Edwards, nor do they have a rim protector to make him think twice about being aggressive.
