Perhaps the most surprising and frustrating part about the first year of the Tom Thibodeau coaching era with the Timberwolves and the early part of this, the second year, was that the Wolves didn’t seem to be getting any better on defense despite Thibodeau’s reputation for being an astute coach on that side of the ball. The Wolves were 26th in the NBA last year in defensive rating (per NBA.com), allowing 109.1 points per 100 possessions.
