KG, Latrell Sprewell or Sam Cassell can each get 20 to 25 points on a given night, and no one seems to care who has the ball at the end of a game. Gary Trent, Troy Hudson and Szczerbiak can certainly get theirs, too. What Needs Work: Man-to-manliness. No one plays a better zone than the Wolves, but will Garnett be able to continue logging huge minutes in the hole? Olowokandi has to make his presence felt defensively, especially if Minnesota has to take on Tim Duncan or Shaq in a later round. A big if.</div> Full Story
I think Olowokandi will clog the whole down low. He has been doing it so far, and I don't see that stopping at all. I don't like that "A big if" part. Apparently nobody has confidence in us. Are we still the underdog? I guess I don't mind that, I like surprising people.

It happened in both of the Twins' World Championship seasons, getting picked to finish next to last in their division in both seasons. As for an ESPN opinion-writer saying that we have these big ifs is more a reflection on them than it is on us. Consider it a badge of honor.
