T-WOLVES 2011-2012

The draft is a few weeks away and we just signed Rubio. I'm getting a little excited. Draft really stinks this year though. We need to hit a HR with D-Will if we keep the 2 or whoever we pick if make a trade.

With Rubio coming at least it will cause some excitement in this area...plus it should help fill up the Target Center more.

currently at .500 winning percentage. I see them slowly improving in the best division in the NBA.

This is what happens when you are able to get a good veteran coach like Rick Adelman. In all his years of coaching, he's only had a couple of losing seasons, and you can see why. Give him some young talent and let him go to work, and get pleasantly surprising results.

This is what the Vikings need to do if Leslie Frazier can't make it work. Hire a veteran with previous experience, instead of first time NFL head coaches like they've always done since the beginning.

WELL the next two games could be very interesting without KLove. 2 game suspension for his actions towards Luis Scola the other night.

I understand KLove's suspension for his actions but what ticks me off is that its 2 games compared to Andrew Bynum's suspension from last postseason's nasty hit on Barea. He got 5 for the hit and because of the shortened season the league shortened it to 3 games. With that logic I think Love's should only be 1 game.

Bynum's was reduced to 4, not 3. I thought 1 game would have been the correct amount, but 2 seems OK.

i think a fine would have been more sufficient. after watching it, it seemed like he was trying to step over him and almost tripped over him. just the way i saw it though

I think the whole thing was blown out of propotion. It was more of a glancing blow than anything.

I think if you know your getting 1 game for a glancing blow than smoke the guy and get 5....make it worth it LOl!

.500 heading into all star break is pretty dang good for a team that has been 32-132 the last two years...Hail Rubio, KLove, Pek, and decent play from Ridnour, DWill (as of late), and Barea....Not to mention last 3 games Wes J

Timberwolves looked pretty impressive tonight on the road vs. the LA Clippers!

Helped that D Wills and Beasley had 27. Hope K Love is alright after the rib injury. Really hoping for a playoff push from the T-Wolves

Did I hear right that their bench outscored the Clippers 92-9? That doesn't seem possible.

27 from DWilliams and 27 from Beasley

however, last night against the Lakers...different story. Looked like Beasley didn't want to be there...barking at teammates after he did something stupid...
