Some one needs to start making game threads for the Wolves. If we set up a schedule of Who makes them I could probly try making a few.
I don't have time to make one tonight, but we can use this thread to talk about the game. The wolves have been playing good lately, I don't think they'll have a problem with GS. They just need to get the ball to open players, and keep GS on there heels. I say Wolves win this one by 8.
I will do it, but I have busy lately. Don't need to worry about those, I will get on those once I have more spare time. About tonights game, I say the Wolves will win by 5. The Warriors are the only team we haven't beaten yet this year, and they seem to come to play full throttle against us.
I think GS shouldn't be much of a problem for the Wolves.I hope the wolves play well tonight.I predict the Wolves win by double digits.
Wolves up 27/25 after one KG is leading the way with 11 points. I think Cassel has played a great 1st quarter coming off the sprained ankle. It doesn't look like it will bother him much. He has 7 points after one.
Erick is having a monster game a double already in the 2nd quarter! It looks like the injury didn't affect him.
Halftime Score: Golden State 45, Minnesota 42 This is a close game.GS are playing great and are shooting 46.3% from the field. Erick is having a great game 18pts and 11reb. KG,Sam and Spree all have 4 ast. KG has 15pts and 3rebs Spree has 8pts and 6rebs. Sam has 9pts and 1rebs.
KG and Spree both have 4rebs. at half^ The Wolves need to play with more agression. We need to get out there in the second half, andtake control of the game. We are usually a second half team, and I think we'll be able to pull this one out. WE need to stop Erick, he is really the only reason GS is in the game. He has 18 points, and 11rebs. If we can find a way to stop him both on O and D I think we won't have a probem winning this game.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting coolhandluke:</div><div class="quote_post">KG and Spree both have 4rebs. at half^</div> Are you sure about that at NBA.com it says that Spree has 6 and KG has 3. But anyway, the wolves have to stop Dampier he is the only thing that is keeping this game so close.The wolves will need to play better D at the 2nd half.
End of 3rd quarter Score: Golden State 61, Minnesota 68 The are starting to play better. Dampier is still playing good but the wolves have stopped him abit. He has 22pts and 13rebs. They are scoring better at the paint 31pts. KG having a Triple-double? That might come true. He has 22pts 8rebs and 7ast. Sam is playing good.13pts, 3rebs and 6ast.
They are playing better they just need to keep the lead, and not let it get close again at the end of the game. Garnett is looking at a possible triple-double, that would be awsome. He only needs one more rebound, and assist, he is on fire tonight. Spree is playing good to with 10 points, and 7 rebounds.
Erick is having a great game 24pts and 17rebs. KG is flirting with a Triple-double with 24pts 9rebs and 9ast. Can he get it? I don't know why Wally isn't playing.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting SGRA:</div><div class="quote_post">Why isn't Wally playing tonight?</div> I don't know why he isn't playing, he isn't on the injured list, if any one knows please tell us why.
Final Score: Golden State 81, Minnesota 91 Garnett missed the triple-double.Finsished with 24pts, 9rebs and 9ast. Spree and Sam both had good games.The wolves have 35 assists. Dampier finished with 24pts and 19rebs. J-rich had 18pts 4rebs and 3ast. They had a good game but the Wolves played better in the 2nd half.
Garnett played great even though he didn't get the triple-double. Great game by the Wolves. All they need to do is keep winning, and I think thay will have a great chance of winning in the playoffs this year.
Aside from Eric Dampier looking like Shaq in the 1st half owning the boards. And dunking just about every trip in the 1st half. I think KG knew he had to carry alot of the load with Sam not 100% & no Wally. So he came out & got his game started early. Sam played well, good job by Flip knowing how to limit his minutes in away that he could still be effective. When I heard Sam was going to play tonight. I figured he would come off the bench & play like 15 minutes as the Backup. But Flip let him start so Sam was able to loosen the ankle early, & it allowed him to be effective for the entire game. Good job Troy off the bench creating easy opportunities for others. We all know he can score but the t-wolves need him to continue to get others involved in the game when Sam goes to the bench. Nice win by the t-wolves without really being 100%.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting SGRA:</div><div class="quote_post">Why isn't Wally playing tonight?</div> Apparantly he has the flu...
Good game by the Wolves. I was wishing that KG would get that triple double, but he ended up 1 rebound and assist shy of it. But a good game, none the less.
