    Just look at the team this season. The Wolves are 3-4 when they play on Sunday, 43-17 on any other day. In fact, the Wolves have lost their past four Sunday games, and at least a couple of them have been pretty ugly affairs.

    In the Wolves' past four Sunday games the team, averaging 95.2 points per game this season, has scored an average of 85.25. A team that leads the NBA with a 46.7 percent shooting percentage didn't hit 40 percent against Philadelphia or Boston.</div>

    And with the lost against the Trailblazers that makes the Wolves record this season on sundays 3-5.

    I dont know, Sam has aways been a party type of cat, maybe a few of the wolves are hitting up the club scenes on Saturday nights. But I hope not cause that would be a sign of lack of focus on what the main goal is for the wolves this season. Its more than likely that the wolves are just out of sink right now. And making any type of adjustments are just adding to throwing the wolves off.

    Alot of NBA players are use to taking daytime naps at the time when the wolves are playing on Sundays. It sounds strange but I seen plenty of shows where players are resting during the day to get ready for night games. Well if your playing during the time that your body is use to resting that is a hard adjustment to make.

    My roomate saw KG Sam Troy and Gary at the club on Saturday night so actually the whole party thing might be a reason.

    That must be it, there is no other explanation besides Flips rotation.
