James: I think the Timberwolves have at least a chance to make it to the Western Conference Finals. They have all the elements

May 9th, today, the podcast "Brain of the Field" founded by Lakers forward James aired the fifth season of the second episode. James video-linked with the host Nash and talked about many topics.

When asked how far he thinks the Timberwolves can go in the playoffs, James said: "I focus on the remaining competition. There are many excellent teams left at the moment, but I expect them to have a chance to enter the Western Conference Finals, if not the Finals. Of course, health is wealth in the playoffs, but I think they have all the elements. They have shooting, hardness, body, foot speed, they have organizational skills, game experience, they have defense switching skills, which is what you need in the playoffs. They play extremely hard. You also have to praise their coaching team for knowing people and making good use of them. I think they have at least a chance to enter the Western Conference Finals, if not the Finals. They have this foundation."
