    Timberwolves 110, Suns 95

    Great game for the Wolves. We were together for a while in the third, but we pulled together in the fourth. Madsen was pretty big in the fourth, scoring 5 points in the final minutes. Garnett was awesome today, scoring 32 points, shooting 12-12 from the line, grabbing 14 rebounds, and not to mention a nice dunk to close out the game. Cassell didn't do half bad, either. He finished with 22 points and 10 assists, not to mention 3 steals. Sprewell chipped in 21 points, but he seemed like he couldn't handle a pass today. And Hassell decided to score a little today, as he finished with 10 points. The man off the bench was Mark Madsen today. He was clutch, as he finished with 8 points and 8 rebounds. Troy Hudson made his 3rd comeback today, scoring 5 points and dishing out 3 assists. On the other side of the ball, Amare Stoudemire scored 29 points and grabbed 6 rebounds. Joe Johnson continued his strong play and finished with 25 points and 9 assists. Shawn Marion finished with 18 points and 11 rebounds. The man off he bench for Phoenix was former Timberwolf Howard Eisely as he finished with 14 points. The good news is that everybody is expected back Thursday, just think of what we can accomplish!

    Madsen played awesome. I think that was the best that I have ever seen him play. Great game. I think the whole team played well through the whole game. They took the lead and never looked back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No game is an easy game. It will be more challenging, but I think we can pull away with the win.

    Great win, sounds great. I hadn't watched it. I'm really afraid of next week's matches, Kings, Pistons, Spurs and the Bucks. All of them are such great teams. Good work Madsen, made up for that messup.

    Good luck to us. Just another chance to prove why we're such a great team. Contenders and champions.

    Yeah. Too bad I don't get all the Wolves games. I get the Pacers though. I only get the ones on national TV but I wanna see the one on Sunday.

    It might be time for you guys to invest in league pass, if you really want to see the t-wolves. I have had league pass for the past 2 seasons & it is truly worth it. but anyway Amare played well tonight seem like he was riding a little bit of a high from his rookie game performance. The t-wolves started to lose it at the end of the 1st half when the suns cut the 14pt lead to single digits. And it continued into the 3rd quarter. but the role players really righted the ship early in the 4th & then the big guns Sam & KG came back end a pretty much ended it. The kings will still be an extremely difficult task on thrusday but Brad Miller was the cat that really hurt the t-wolves in the 2nd matchup. So he will really be missed on their part. But you know they are still going to find away to get buckets. So they are still dangerous.
