    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Kevin Garnett's jumper at 3:46 of the fourth quarter tied things up, but Minnesota couldn't manage the Mavs down the stretch in a 92-88 loss Saturday. Garnett finished with 28 points and 20 rebounds and Sam Cassell added 18 points. </div>

    So much for all the help Garnett is getting.

    Too bad KG signed his long term deal. He would have looked great in the Purple and Gold!

    Minnesota is off to a poor start, but no one should write them off yet. They are still playing without Wally and Hudson in the lineup and their lack of a consistent perimeter game is killing them this season. Once they get these two players back the T-Wolves will go on a run. Kandi finally had a decent game for them last night with 4 blocks and 7 rebounds and 10 points. KG had another 20/20 night, what more can he do for them?

    The other option for them might be firing Flip. If they cannot win with Hudson and Wally back, firing the headcoach might be the spark they need.

    Uhh No.

    Yes, ONLY after Wally Szczerbiak and Troy Hudson come back. Techincally they Wolves are working with very little again with these injuries, and Flip has always gotten to the Wolves to a slow start... we seem to explode just before AS Weekend.

    Well, they actually got closer than I imagined them to. They lost to the Knicks by more. I think after the injuries, we will make a nice run like last year in February when we went like 13-1.

    Yeah I listened to this one on the radio, and Finley was just too much for Hoiberg to handle. Hoiberg shot terribly BTW. But anyways, the Mavs sneak away with a win without Dirk...If this had been at the Target Center, the Wolves wouldda won IMO.
