For anyone thinking of shifting their NBA fandom allegiance to the Minnesota Timberwolves, now seems to be a perfect time. But at least for one fan, anytime is the best time to do that — as long as Timberwolves part-owner Alex Rodriguez is paying for the change of loyalty.

Via Jomboy Media:

With the Timberwolves forming the latest star Twin Tower in the NBA, with the acquisition of Rudy Gobert from the Utah Jazz, Rodriguez is definitely high on his team's chances to make bigger splashes going forward. The Timberwolves celebrated their win in the 2021 Play-in Tournament like they just discovered the cure to all diseases in the world. Imagine what it would be like if the combo of Gobert and Karl-Anthony Towns actually worked and leads the Timberwolves to a deep run in the NBA Playoffs.

At the same time, the Knicks are also looking forward to a brighter future after finally landing their dream guard in Jalen Brunson.

As for Rodriguez, he has always been a polarizing figure since he first broke into the mainstream as a superstar-in-the-making shortstop for the Seattle Mariners. It got wilder when he signed a massive 10-year deal with the Texas Rangers in 2000. Then it went off the charts when he got traded by the Rangers to the New York Yankees in 2004, where he would spend the rest of his MLB career.
