Finch is by far the most successful coach in the history of these star-crossed Timberwolves, who've had only three of their 14 coaches even make the playoffs. They've made it in each of his four full seasons and now reached back-to-back conference finals for the first time in franchise history.

The Minnesota Timberwolves don’t know who they’re playing in the Western Conference Finals yet, but they do know when the games will be played. The Wolves will start the series on the road in Game 1 on Tuesday night.

Edwards predicted a year ago that Minnesota would make it back to the West finals. The Wolves dispatched the Warriors to prove him right.
