From 1995 to 2007 The Kevin Garnett Era,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
In the 1995 draft, the Minnesota Timberwolves selected high school standout Kevin Garnett in the first round (5th overall),[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and Flip Saunders was named head coach. Christian Laettner was traded along with Sean Rooks to the Atlanta Hawks cheap jerseys for Andrew Lang and Spud Webb. Also,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], first-round pick Donyell Marshall was traded the previous season for Golden State Warriors forward Tom Gugliotta. These trades paved the way for rookie Kevin Garnett to become the go-to player inside. Garnett went on to average 10.4 ppg in his rookie season as the Wolves finished in 5th place in the Midwest Division, with a 26-56 record.
In 1998,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], a year after signing Kevin Garnett to an unprecedented 6-year,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], $126 million contract,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Timberwolves were used as the poster child of irresponsible spending as the NBA endured a 4-month lockout that wiped out much of the season. With an already cap-heavy payroll the Wolves were forced to let Tom Gugliotta nba team jerseys walk away in part because they wanted to save money in order to sign Stephon Marbury to a long-term contract and in part because Tom Gugliotta did not want to play with Stephon Marbury. This move proved unsuccessful,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], however,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as Stephon Marbury wanted to be the biggest star on a team and subsequently forced an in-season trade by refusing a contract extension. In the 3-team midseason deal that sent Marbury to the New Jersey Nets the Wolves got Terrell Brandon in return and a first round draft pick in the 1999 draft (which turned out to be the sixth pick). The Wolves nba authentic jerseys made the playoffs for the 3rd straight season by finishing in 4th place with a 25-25 record. In the playoffs the Timberwolves were beaten by the eventual champion San Antonio Spurs in 4 games.
In 1997,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Kevin Garnett and Stephon Marbury established themselves as two of the brightest rising stars in the NBA. Garnett averaged 18.5 ppg and 9.6 rebounds per game,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], while Marbury averaged 17.7 ppg and dished out 8.6 assists per game. Despite losing leading scorer Tom Gugliotta best nba jerseys for half the season the Timberwolves went on to post their first winning season at 45-37 making the playoffs for the 2nd straight season. After dropping Game 1 on the road to the Seattle Supersonics in the playoffs the Timberwolves earned their first postseason win in Game 2 winning in Seattle 98-93. As the series shifted to Minnesota the Timberwolves wholesale nba jerseys had an opportunity to pull off the upset as they won Game 3 by a score of 98-90. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the Wolves dropped Game 4 at home as the Sonics went on to win the series in 5 games.
In 1996, the Wolves added another star player in the draft,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], swapping Ray Allen to the Milwaukee Bucks for the rights to Stephon Marbury,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the 4th overall pick. The addition of Marbury had a positive effect on the entire team,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as Kevin Garnett new nba jerseys and Tom Gugliotta became the first Wolves to be selected to the All-Star team. Gugliotta and Garnett led the Timberwolves in scoring as the team made the playoffs for the first time in franchise history with a record of 40-42. However,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], in the playoffs the Timberwolves cheap nba jerseys made a quick exit as they were swept by the Houston Rockets in 3 straight games. The T-Wolves also decided to change their image by changing their team logo and colors, adding black to the team colors and replacing the original logo with a logo featuring a snarling wolf looming over a field of trees. It was also during the season that Minnesota began to play on a parquet floor.
