2007-08 Game 72: Utah Jazz @ Minnesota T-Wolves

Mar 30th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The death march continues with a home date against the Jazz. The NBA season is extremely long and few have been as long for Wolves fans as this one. This post, though is going to be short.
Please, oh please, let this season end.
Utah is a six point favorite, after opening at an eight [...]



2007-08 Game 71: Minnesota Timberwolves @ San Antonio Spurs

Mar 28th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Friends, this should be an ass kicking. The Spurs are locked in a heated battle for playoff position in the Western Conference and I can't imagine that they'll be looking past our T-Wolves. The Wolves, to their credit -- and detriment -- have been playing much better of late, as we have pointed [...]



2007-08 Game 70: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Houston Rockets

Mar 26th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Game Log for the March 26, 2008 NBA game between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Houston Rockets.



2007-08 Game 67: Memphis Teddy Bears @ Minnesota Toy Poodles

Mar 19th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

It's the Ping Pong Ball Derby. Both Memphis and the Pups are sitting at 16-50, just 1/2 game better than the Seattle club for the second worst record in the league. The Wolves have clearly stated that, unlike the last two seasons, they will actually try to win games down the stretch, as [...]



2007-08 Game 66: Los Angeles Clippers @ Minnesota T-Wolves

Mar 17th, 2008 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

<GreekHouse>I haven't got a whole lot to say at this point. From the Twolves perspective, this season is really starting to drag. From an NBA perspective, the season is getting really exciting!</GreekHouse>



2007-08 Game 65: Minnesota T-Wolves @ Portland T-Blazers

Mar 15th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves play in the Northwest for a second consecutive night, taking on the T-Blazers. This is the second time in five days that the Wolves play Portland. The Blazers won in Minneapolis on Tuesday, 103-96.
Tonight the Blazers are favored by 9 and the O/U is 191. I'm inclined to take the [...]



2007-08 Game 64: Minnesota T-Wolves @ Seattle Supersonics

Mar 14th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves are tied in the loss column with the Sonics at 49 wins. The Sonics have two more wins than the Wolves. It would behoove the local five to lose this game.
Seattle is favored by three. The O/U is 199, after being ridiculously low for the past several games. I [...]



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

Mar 11th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

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 [...]



2007-08 Game 62: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Los Angeles Clippers

Mar 8th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

I've spent way too much time on the site today already, so just a short post on tonight's game. The Wolves won a rare road game last night over Sacramento and took the season series from the Kings. Tonight, they try to make it two in a row against the Franchise We Don't [...]



2007-08 Game 61: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Sacramento Kings

Mar 7th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Everyone knows that a baseball season is a marathon. But, the NBA season isn't exactly a stroll through the tulips, either. The season is now about 75% complete, and our club has 12 victories. A little ciphering has me speculating that they are about on pace for 16 victories, which is darned [...]



2007-08 Game 60: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Utah Jazz

Mar 5th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves head to Salt Lake City to match up with the Utah Jazz tonight. Wow, have the Jazz been a great franchise over the last 25 years or so. If you remember, I linked to a story by J.A. Andande a week or so ago in which he displays a ridiculous bias [...]



2007-08 Game 59: Charlotte Bobcats @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Mar 4th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves take on the Bobcats tonight at Target Center. Having looked at the March schedule, I expected that this was the 3rd most likely game for the Wolves to win this month. Of course, the second most likely win was the first game of the month, which turned out to be a [...]



2007-08 Game 58: Seattle Supersonics @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Mar 2nd, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

I don't have a lot of time today, as I have family responsibilities. Still, though, I wanted to get a post up. The situation in Seattle is not good. They have a premier rookie -- although I'm not sure he's as good as advertised -- in Kevin Durant, but they've gutted the [...]



2007-08 Game 57: Minnesota Timberwolves at Cleveland Cavaliers

Feb 29th, 2008 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Yeah, the Wolves are playing Cleveland and possibly the best player in the league tonight, LeBron James.
What I want to talk about is that the Wolves bought out Theo Ratliff, allowing him to (probably) head to Detroit for the rest of the season. Ratliff, of course, came over to Minnesota in the KG trade, [...]



Game 56: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Toronto Raptors

Feb 27th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Hey, hey! What a win last night for our hometown five. The T-Wolves, after a pretty crappy eight game stretch, beat a very good Utah team last night. No rest for the weary, though, as they head to the land of the Strong Dollar, Toronto. Seriously, the Canadian Dollar costs Americans [...]



Game 55: Utah Jazz @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Feb 26th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Division leading Utah comes to town tonight to face a suddenly cold Timberwolves team that's dropped seven of eight, including six of their last seven at home. After a five win January that raised the spirits of their long suffering fans, the Wolves are staring at their third two win month of the now [...]



2007-08 Game 53: San Antonio Spurs @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Feb 21st, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Old number 21 is coming to town, except this guy isn't the #21 we're used to see play night after night in Minneapolis, this is the guy we've seen collect four rings over the last 10 or so years.
There's a lot to like about Tim Duncan's game, and saying that is almost damning him with [...]



2007-08 Game 51: Los Angeles Lakers at Minnesota Timberwolves

Feb 13th, 2008 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

<GreekHouse>The Wolves had a pretty good stretch that had everyone feeling a lot better about the team, but the recent skid has brought them back to reality. Still, the Wolves are playing better ball than they were a month ago. The problem is that they're still worse than most of the teams in [...]



2007-08 Game 49: Toronto Raptors @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Feb 10th, 2008 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

<GreekHouse>I just realized I hadn't posted anything and that SBG hadn't posted anything for this game. I was gonna write some stuff about Foye and McCants, but I guess that will wait until next time.
In any case, here's your not so sweet game thread.</GreekHouse>



2007-08 Game 48: Boston Celtics @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Feb 8th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Well, this is the one game featuring the Timberwolves to be shown on ESPN this season. Of course, this game features the Timberwolves only in that they are playing the Celtics, but the real draw here was, of course, KG returning to Minnesota.
As it turns out, however, he won't be playing, unless we've all [...]



2007-08 Game 47: Houston Rockets @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Feb 4th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The T-Wolves (10-36) host the Houston Rockets (27-20) tonight at Target Center and the recent good play by the Wolves has got me in a pretty good mood relative to this team. The big deal, of course, is BigAlJefferson, who has been pretty spectacular lately. He’s averaging 25.2 points per game over his [...]



2007-08 Game 46: LA Clippers @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Feb 1st, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The T-Wolves host the LA Clippers in the second game of a five game homestand. Minnesota is coming off of a nice win against an admittedly depleted Chicago club. Tonight's opponent is the Los Angeles Clippers. It's unclear what kind of team the Clips will field with Chris Kaman, Corey Maggette, and [...]



2007-08 Game 45: Chicago Bulls @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Jan 30th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Bulls and Wolves got on a plane last night and flew from Chicago to Minneapolis for a rare back-to-back home and home series. I don't know if I recall the Wolves ever playing the same team on consecutive nights. It's a good thing, too, because the Wolves will have a chance to [...]



2007-08 Game 44: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Chicago Bulls

Jan 29th, 2008 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

GH and I had worked up a mid-season conversation on the Wolves, which I intended to post after game 41. As it started at the beginning of the 8 game death march, it was basically a bunch of man they suck stuff. A funny thing happened on the way to game 41. [...]



Cup of Coffee: January 28, 2008

Jan 28th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Fear the T-Wolves.



2007-08 Game 43: New Jersey Nets @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Jan 27th, 2008 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

<GreekHouse>The Wolves have emerged from their brutal 8 game stretch with a 2-6 record. They played as expected for the first 4 games, but really came on strong during the last 4 and almost pulled off the upset of the season at Boston on Friday. The result of the game was disappointing, but [...]



2007-08 Game 42: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Boston Celtics

Jan 25th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

<GreekHouse>Well, this is the game we've all been looking forward to (or dreading). Wolves have been playing better as of late and the Celtics have been playing worse, so it might not be as bad of a blowout as we would have expected.</GreekHouse>



2007-08 Game 41: Phoenix Suns at Minnesota Timberwolves

Jan 23rd, 2008 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

[SBG] I was late to the party tonight, but I made it. The Wolves close out the first half of the season looking to get their seventh win of the season against the team with the best record in the West, Phoenix (30-12). The Wolves have half a dozen wins this year, [...]



2007-08 Game 40: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Golden State Warriors

Jan 21st, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Timberwolves travel to Oakland to play the Warriors in a MLK Day afternoon tilt. I like that the NBA plays day games on MLK Day. I think it’s a nice gesture to recognize the day. And given that I’ll be at work during the game, considering the way the Wolves have [...]



2007-08 Game 39: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Denver Nuggets

Jan 19th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves played the Nugs back on January 4th and at the time, I wrote about the Nugs and stressed a couple of things. One, they probably are disappointed about how the club has played since the acquisition of Allen Iverson and two, AI has been pretty good.
Since beating the Wolves (natch), the Nugs [...]



2007-08 Game 38: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Phoenix Suns

Jan 18th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The T-Wolves (5-32) continue their 8 game death march through some of the better clubs in the Western Conference tonight with a stop in Phoenix (27-12). The Wolves are a spectacularly bad 1-18 on the road this year and they look every bit like a high 30 loss (out of 41) team on the [...]



2007-08 Game 37: Golden State Warriors @ Minnesota T-Wolves

Jan 15th, 2008 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

I don't have a lot to say tonight, but luckily, GH has put together a good pre-game read. The line is GS -8 and the O/U is 212. I'm like a novice sailor who can't see land when it comes to predicting the Wolves. I'll go GS and the points.
<GreekHouse>

The news on [...]



2007-08 Game 36: Minnesota T-Wolves @ San Antonio Spurs

Jan 12th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

I don't know how you can be positive about this team after that game in Houston last night. I mean, the NBA season is long and sometimes games like this happen, but for all the talk about how they were re-energized by the win over the Miami Heat, the Wolves were awful, awful, awful [...]



2007-08 Game 35: Minnesota T-Wolves @ Houston Rockets

Jan 11th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Last time out, I said that the Wolves needed a win badly, and they got it. Here’s why I said they needed that game. The next eight games on the schedule, starting with tonight’s game, look like this:
@ Houston
@San Antonio
Golden State
@Phoenix
@Denver
@Golden State
Phoenix
@Boston
That’s a damned tough stretch, and it puts the lie to Coach [...]



2007-08 Game 34: Miami Heat @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Jan 8th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Circle this one. This is one the Wolves have to have. Playing the worst team in the NBA not taking up residence at 600 First Avenue North Minneapolis, MN, the Wolves host the can-it-be-that-they-won-a-championship-just-two-seasons-ago Miami Heat. Yes, it can be, and it also can be that they have completely imploded. The [...]



2007-08 Game 33: Dallas Mavericks @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Jan 6th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

I'm busy today with things around the house. I don't have much time to watch a team that is 24 games under .500 only 32 games in. Dallas is favored by 9 and the O/U is 193. I'm going to take the over.
<GreekHouse>During the last game log, ubelmann and I had a [...]



2007-08 Game 32: Denver Nuggets @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Jan 4th, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves play host to the Denver Nuggets tonight at Target Center. The Nuggets played in Denver last night, edging the Manu-less San Antonio Spurs 80-77. I’m pretty down on the Wolves right now, so I won’t say anything about them, but I think Denver is a pretty interesting team.
Denver went all-in with [...]



2007-08 Game 31: Portland Trailblazers @ Minnesota Timberwolves

Jan 2nd, 2008 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Timberwolves open the 2008 portion of this season’s schedule tonight by hosting the Portland Trailblazers at Target Center, carrying their fifth losing streak of at least five games already this season into tonight's game. The Blazers lost their last game of the year in Utah, ending their 13 game winning streak. The [...]



2007-08 Game 30 Minnesota Timberwolves @ Los Angeles Clippers

Dec 31st, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

On New Years Eve, the Wolves sit at 4-25. I can't say that I'm surprised -- I thought at the beginning of the month that the Wolves would end the month 4-26. Now, here we are with one game left. And it's against a struggling LA Clippers team. The Clips have [...]



2007-08 Game 29: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Seattle Super Sonics

Dec 29th, 2007 | By E-6 | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

ROY candidate Kevin Durant leads the young Sonics...ah, screw it. If Stick and Greek House don't care, why should we?



2007-08 Game 26: Minnesota Timberwolves at Portland Trailblazers

Dec 28th, 2007 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The number one story line for tonight's game is that Portland is the blueprint for where the Wolves want to be. They have stunned the league with their strong start -- and that's without the number one overall pick in the draft, Greg Oden. Including Oden, the Blazers have a stunning 8 players [...]



2007-08 Game 27: Minnesota Timberwolves at Golden State Warriors

Dec 26th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves start a post Christmas string of four games in six nights on the West Coast tonight with a game against the GS Warriors. It appears that the Wolves will have a tough week. The Wolves are 1-12 on the road (the win? at New Orleans) including eight in a row and [...]



2007-08 Game 26: Minnesota Timberwolves at New Orleans Hornets

Dec 22nd, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Not much time to write as I'm stealing time here at my brother's place in SD. Wow, what a surprising result in Minneapolis last night. I saw it and I still don't believe it.
Tonight the Wolves are 12 point dogs in New Orleans. The O/U is 188. The Wolves are playing [...]



2007-08 Game 25: Indiana Pacers at Minnesota Timberwolves

Dec 21st, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

How do you know when it’s not going well for your team? I suppose there are a number of different ways that you could read the tea leaves, but how about this? Today’s Strib has a front page story written by their beat writer (headline: Wolves: The Worst Team Ever?) about how [...]



2007-08 Game 24: Golden State Warriors at Minnesota Timberwolves

Dec 19th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

So, is tonight a game the Wolves (3-20) can win? Of course, any game is theoretically winnable in the NBA. The Warriors are a lot better team than the Wolves, but there’s this one thing going on that points to this being a win for the Wolves and that is that the Wolves [...]



2007-08 Game 23: Minnesota Timberwolves at Miami Heat

Dec 17th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

I missed a game because I was just too busy and didn't gitrdun. Tonight, though, I'm at least nominally going to gitrdun. This is going to be short, though.
The Wolves have never before been 3-19 and thus, a little more than a quarter of the way through the season, the Wolves are seemingly [...]



2007-08 Game 21: Seattle Supersonics at Minnesota Timberwolves

Dec 14th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Call this one the Boston Celtic consolation bowl. Fans of the Wolves and Sonics can turn their lonely eyes toward Beantown as their erstwhile stars ply their trade for the hated Celtics. Of course, the story lines aren’t that close… Seattle wasn’t Ray Allen’s only team and wasn’t hands down the best player [...]



2007-08 Game 20: Minnesota Timberwolves at Philadelphia 76ers

Dec 12th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Wolves! 76ers! KG vs. AI!
Um, ok. Each of these teams traded their franchise player since the start of last year. Neither team has much of a chance to make any noise this year, although the 76ers have gotten off to a better start than the Wolves and have won three straight.
The [...]



2007-08 Game 19: Minnesota Timberwolves at Washington Wizards

Dec 11th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves head to Washington for the first of back-to-back games against the Wizards and Philly. The Wizards drilled the Wolves in Minneapolis on November 16th, dropping the Wolves to a then 1-6 record. Caron Butler and Gilbert Arenas combined for 56 points in that 105-89 victory. You won’t be seeing Arenas [...]



2007-08 Game 18: Phoenix Suns at Minnesota Timberwolves

Dec 8th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Well, then.
After a completely disgraceful "effort" against the Lakers, the Wolves bounced back with a spirited comeback against the Atlanta Hawks, only to fall short when Joe Johnson hit a buzzer beater. That game was encouraging on several fronts. First, the Wolves were getting absolutely drilled in this game, but got back into [...]



2007-08 Game 17: Minnesota Timberwolves at Atlanta Hawks

Dec 6th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Blah.
I don't have much to say about this game, as the season is starting to settle in and the realization that we are back to zero with this club has started to take hold of me. There's only one player on this roster that I see being a key part of the T-Wolves' future, [...]



2007-08 Game 16: Los Angeles Lakers at Minnesota Timberwolves

Dec 4th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

You’ll never confuse me with a Kobe Bryant apologist, but I’ve warmed to Kobe a little bit over the last season or so. It was easy to hate Kobe when he was younger – he was brash, full of talent, a gunner without a conscience and in serious need of a slap upside the [...]



2007-08 Wolves Game 15: Minnesota at Memphis

Dec 1st, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves (2-12) play their third game in four nights, heading down to Memphis (5-10) to take on the Grizzlies. The big story here is that Marko Jaric and Rashad McCants are questionable because of injury. McCants was a scratch last night because of a sore knee and Jaric sprained his foot in [...]



2007-08 Game 14: San Antonio Spurs at Minnesota Timberwolves

Nov 30th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

I’ve always had just a little bit of hatred for Tim Duncan. It’s not that I don’t like his game. It’s not that he’s done anything that’s offended me (other than some whining at calls from time to time). No, when I think about Duncan rationally, there’s very little not to like.
Of [...]



2007-08 Game 13: Minnesota Timberwolves at Dallas Mavericks

Nov 28th, 2007 | By GreekHouse | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

SBG doesn't seem to be around, so I'll fill in for him tonight. I assume this also means I'll spend most of the game log talking to myself. The Wolves come into this game off of a dominating performance by our young boys in New Orleans. Dallas is 9-5 on the season, [...]



2007-08 Game 12: Minnesota Timberwolves at New Orleans Hornets

Nov 26th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Just about the best thing you can say about tonight’s game is that the New Orleans Hornets have a couple of their stars playing hurt. Tyson Chandler suffered a minor knee injury and missed a game last week, but has played in the last two games and will, in all likelihood, go tonight. [...]



2007-08 Game 10: Atlanta at Minnesota

Nov 24th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

Again, I'm on dialup in ND as I write this, so I can't do much in the way of research without taking forever... plus I'm at my parents' house, so sitting on the computer for an hour to write about the Wolves seems like an insult to them and it's not too attractive of an [...]



Game 2007-08 Game 9: Minnesota at Denver

Nov 23rd, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

I'm in ND and on dialup, so this will be short and sweet. Looking at the line should be all you need to know about the prospects for the Wolves tonight. Denver is a 14 point favorite and the line has been moving in Denver's favor. The over/under is 203.
I was visiting [...]



2007-08 Wolves Game 9: Cleveland Cavaliers at Minnesota Timberwolves

Nov 21st, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

To this day, I'm puzzled by the decision to trade the rights to Brandon Roy for Randy Foye. Nothing against Foye, but he's not that much different of a player than Rashad McCants. I can see taking the best player available, but why the Wolves wanted to basically take the same player two [...]



2007-08 Wolves Game 8: New Orleans Hornets at Minnesota Timberwolves

Nov 17th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

It’s going to be a tall order tonight. Last night, I mentioned John Hollinger’s Power Rankings when talking about the game between the Wolves and the Wizards. The “HPRs” aren’t perfect, but they measure scoring margin, strength of schedule, and recent performance (go here if you want more details) to rank the 30 [...]



2007-08 Game 7: Washington Wizards at Minnesota Timberwolves

Nov 16th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Minnesota Timberwolves (1-5) play host to the disappointing (so far) Washington Wizards (2-5) tonight at Target Center. We all expect that the Wolves would have a slow start – and they have – but Washington’s stumble out of the gate was less expected by miles. Washington looked like a team that would [...]



2007-08 Game 6: Sacramento Kings at Minnesota Timberwolves

Nov 14th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

In case you haven’t heard, things haven’t really started humming at 600 1st Avenue North, Minneapolis yet this year as the Timberwolves have dropped five straight to begin the season. The Wolves take on Sacramento at the Bullseye tonight, their first game since they played in Sacto four days ago. In between, the [...]



2007-08 Wolves Game 5: Minnesota at Sacramento Kings

Nov 10th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The NBA season isn't very old and just one undefeated team remains. That team is lead by the "Bashful Ticket", who has demurely averaged 23.8 points, 16.3 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 2.75 steals, and 1.75 blocks while leading his team to an average margin of victory of 18 points a game. One of those [...]



2007-08 Wolves Game 4: Minnesota at Los Angeles Lakers

Nov 9th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Minnesota Timberwolves (0-3) face the Los Angeles Lakers (2-2) at the Staples Center on Friday night. Any time the Wolves face the Lakers, one can’t help but think about the connection between the Lakers and the city of Minneapolis. Prior to moving to LA after the 1959-60 season, the Lakers won four [...]



2007-08 Wolves Game 3: Orlando at Minnesota

Nov 6th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The Wolves are still in search of their first victory of the season and it won’t be an easy task to get it against tonight’s opponent, the Orlando Magic. The Magic spent a bazillion dollars on Rashard Lewis in the off season and they also have Dwight Howard and Hedo Turkoglu. The Magic [...]



2007-08 Wolves Game 2: Minnesota at New York

Nov 4th, 2007 | By SBG | Category: 2007-08 Wolves Game Logs

The lustre of opening night has worn off and a pretty good effort by the hometown five gives one hope as they travel to the so-called "World's Most Famous Arena". I find it hard to believe that Madison Square Garden is the most famous arena in the world, but, whatever, everything in New [...]
