Sprained ankle. Listed day to day. Hudson isn't doing that great in his place, we are going to miss him facing the Nets.
What are you talking about? Hudson is doing ayt. 15 pts on 50% shooting and 50% 3pt % It's Sprewell that's killing you. Praise the Nets defense!
Wally is stepping up. And dead eye Fred stiked again. He has hit some big shots this year, he is giving us momentum in this game.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AllNet:</div><div class="quote_post">Someone forgot to tell Spree the game was today 0 points</div> If they have Hudson who now has 29 points, I'm sure it's not much of an effect. The Nets were ready for Spree, KG and Sam. But they weren't ready for Troy.
Hudson is the player of the game, no doubt. Garnett didn't get his double double, the first in a long time. Olowokandi stole all of them, he grabbed 11. And Wally had 14 off the bench, great stuff. Glad we could be the ones to end your streak Nets. http://www.nba.com/games/20040225/NJNMIN/boxscore.html
Man, I'll be hearing about this from Purehoops for a looooooooong time... You know what, I'm wishing that Sam played instead. Hudson wouldn't get those numbers if Sam played and at least we were ready against Sam.
Hudson had a great game no doubt about it. The Wolves played well tonight snapping their three game lossing streak. You also have to give a hand to Kandi for his huge 11 rebounds. He looks like he's playing a lot better now. KG didn't get his double double tonight, he was only one rebound shy.

The t-wolves offense lacked effiency thats what Sam brings to the table that Troy Hudson doesnt. And Spree needed Sam to help get him going like Sam usually does when Spree starts off the game struggling. Sam & Spree usually run a screen & curl play, where spree comes of a screen & Sam hits him with a pin point pass. A few trips down the court & that usually gets Spree going. He didnt have that with Sam out. And KG had to work alot harder to get his shot off without Sam as well.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting InNETSweTrust:</div><div class="quote_post">Man, I'll be hearing about this from Purehoops for a looooooooong time...</div> Hehe... T'Wolves usually take those tough games... Dont forget about Fred Hoiberg... I didnt get to catch the game because I was at work but looks like Fred had himself a solid game as well... <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Hudson and Hoiberg shattered Frank's perfect coaching record, combining for Minnesota's first 20 points in the fourth quarter as the Timberwolves pulled away for an 81-68 victory over the Nets. </div> Better Cassell rest it then risk him going out long term... obviously the Wolves struggled offensivley... but defensive was on point...
Well that's my point. They know what Sam can do. They would've been more ready. They weren't expecting Hudson to light up for almost 30 points. Oh ya Hoiberg. Two threes and a couple of free throws to make a run in the fourth with Hudson.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting twolvefan11:</div><div class="quote_post">We didn't have a three game losing streak. We just beat the Bucks yesterday.</div> Before last night, the T'Wolves had lost 3 straight against the Nets, with a winning margin of over 20 points per game. Needless to say, that came crashing down hard last night. With the T'Wolves now healthy, this team's capable of putting up 120 points a game against pretty much anyone anytime.
