Off to Staples we go!

Moto stays the same "Win or go home!" The T-Wolves will have to go home either way, might has well bring the Lakers with us.

 

Timberwolves lose this 103-95. An excellent season for the Timberwolves. Props goes out to Kevin Garnett.

 

I really wish that Sam would play in this game.

 

I want Sam to play when he can. But this injury seems like it may require surgery. So it comes down to Wally, Spree, and Hoiberg picking up the slack from here on.

 

Yeah tough luck for the T-Wolves,but I think if they win on Monday then they will take the series.If Darrick Martin could step up like he did earlier in the series then they have a much better chance.

 

Sam isn't playing tomorrow night. Oh well. The Lakers are the obvious favorites but the T'Wolves have a chance.

Here's why I think that:

1. Spree & KG won't wilt in the bright LA lights.

2. Wally & Hoibs are still able to hit their shots & play solid defense.

3. I think that Kandi will have a solid game. Yes, I know he's been a whipping boy this year but I think that Kandi can keep Shaq honest & take some rebounding pressure off KG.

 

I think KG and Spree' wil have their big games on, shooting the lights out whilst having great support. As far as Kandiman playing well goes, I have absolutely no faith in him anymore. Before the injury he was a highly ranked center, at least Johnson plays a lot smarter than he does especially defensively. Even when he's lazy, Shaq's sheer size and strength will rip them apart. I have faith that this'll at least go to game 7, but we really need Sam I Am, that's for sure. Timberwolves by 2 again.

 

Key to the first half of this game, Fouls. Lakers went over the limit in the 2nd quarter at the 9 minute mark. TWolbes just kept driving it causing more and more fouls and sending us to the line, and we did a superb job making our freethrows. KB getting 3 fouls early came to an advantage to us. KG was making some outstanding turnaround jumpers. I hope we win this game!
