2007-08 Game 63: Portland T-Blazers @ Minnesota T-Wolves

Posted by SBG on Tuesday, March 11th, 2008 at 6:20 pm

A great Citizen of this fine nation offered me a ducat to this here particular game and I was pretty excited about getting to my first game of the year. Unfortunately, life had other plans for me today, and I had to cancel out.

The Wolves are taking on a surprising Portland team, although the bloom has come off the Rose a little bit. Plus, our club is coming into this game on a two game winning streak. Even the despicably bad Jimmy Rodgers squad had a three game winning streak (although not every T-Wolves team has had one), but our guy Randy Wittman, despite having coached in four separate NBA seasons, has never had a three game winning streak. Maybe tonight will be the night for Wittman to get off the schneid.

The Blazers are favored by 3 and the O/U is 185. I'm going to take the over again. I think Minny wins 99-97.

Best thing about the new site layout: the placement of that spectacular BabySBG photog!

Agreed. That's a keeper, man.

You know the drill. The local team loses. Flea ridden carcass dragged out.

Hey, that looks kinda like Marv Albert's rug!
