    There isn't a preview so let's discuss it here.

    It's the beginning of the 2nd quater.
    Tied at 25-25
    Allen isn't playing yet.
    Mickie is playing great right now and KG is playing great as usual.

    Luckily the Wolves ended the first half with a nice little scoring run. We where down 9 points with 2 minutes left. Now it's only 3. 42-45 at the half.

    KG has 15 points, 7 rebs and 4 assist.
    Cassell 8 pts, 2 asst
    Hudson 6 pts
    Wally 5 pts

    I hope we can pull this one out. If we can't beat the Sixers, it will look bad for us.

    Yeah. Even more so considering that both Iverson and Robinson has a donut in the minute-column.

    End of 3rd quarter
    Score:Minnesota 61,Philadelphia 60

    This is a close game even if Glenn and Allen aren't playing.The Wolves need to play better in the last quarter.The Wolves are outrebounding them right now.
    KG is playing pretty good but missing shots.He has 21pts, 12rebs and 4ast.
    GO WOLVES!

    At a timeout the Sixers lead 72-71.
    The Wolves need to play better.
    Spree and Sam need to contribute more.

    Great game. I was there last night and felt that for once this year I actually got my money's worth without AI and Big Dogg. Good effort by both teams tonight. Close one.

    Man Philly blowed me away with this one. I was sure Minnesota had this one in the bagg especially after KG got them hypted up. Great effort put in by both teams though.

    It was a great game for both teams.They all gave a lot of effort.I thought the Wolves wouldn't have any problems winning but the Sixers surprised me.They did a great job of limiting KG's touches down the stretch.The Sixers were really agressive.They played great.

    A GREAT GAME for both teams??? You're kidding, right??? When the T'Wolves entered the lockerroom, Flip had written "A.A.U." on the chalkboard. Afterward, during Flip's postgame comments, he said that the team played like they did back in November, that they didn't take the game seriously, didn't move without the ball & several other things. When asked if this game would be a wakeup for his team, Flip replied, "I'll wake them up."

    To be blunt, if this doesn't wake this team up, we're heading for disaster in the playoffs.

    McKie had a great night. Willie had a good first half but kinda disappeared in the 2nd half. Korver had a great end of the 4th. Made some big plays and free throws down the stretch. Good win for Philadelphia. Sixers had more fast breaks than Minnesota which I didn't really expect. As well as a season low 8 (I think) turnovers.
