the youth thing is overblown.
Not when 2 of your starters, one of whom is your rim protector, were bottom of the league at their positions in DRPM last season. Butler and Gibson will help, but they are still going to play some bad defenders a lot of minutes in key roles. I expect them to pull it together by the end of the year but I think they'll be bad enough early on that the last 4 spots will be up for grabs heading into the last month of the season. I don't see anyone being good enough to separate from this middle pack.

Young, talented players get better. Took Davis a couple seasons to be competent on defense too. Again, OKC won 50 games with younger players in a better West.
Here's what I see: a Pels fan thinks all the Pels will play better together, but doesn't think that Wolves can have internal improvement or be better after adding Jimmy Butler.
Wolves have questions, certainly. So do the Pels. Just saying "youth and new faces" is as lazy as people saying Davis/Cousins won't work because of 1st 3 games last year or Pels only went 7-10 with that duo.
