It's not just Gobert playing better, it's not just Ant continuing his success and growth, and it's not even KAT reducing a lot of the dumb shit he used to do. It's the depth that's impressive. When Kyle Anderson is your second big off the bench, that's a versatile as **** front court. They are very weak at PG behind Conley, whose age needs to considered by the team as the season drags on, but that isn't anything they can't try to fix at the trade deadline. A nice little move might be snagging Tyus Jones on an expiring contract-- would be great solid veteran to have off the bench.
Not predicting championship or even WCF appearance at this point, but it's pretty obvious with the wins they've already racked up and what they are as a team that they have all the makings to win lots of games and get a high seed in the playoffs. You can't ask for more than that as a Wolves fan. Just getting that plus a first round series win would be a fantastic season.

Let's not kid ourselves, though. KAT has been a fairly significant part of the problem in the past. This season, he actually appears to be part of the solution. That's a BIG deal, IMO.
