28. Minnesota Timberwolves

It's been 11 seasons since the Minnesota Timberwolves have achieved a record of at least .500. And it's been another year since they've played in a single playoff game. At that time, the recently retired Kevin Garnett was in his eighth season at age 27.

This amount of struggles placed the Timberwolves behind all but two teams with a composite rank of 126. In the same time span, Minnesota's next to last in defensive rating, and it has only helped them to an average nERD of 42.81 -- 27th among all NBA franchises.
