    I'm pretty worried about not having KT. Hopefully Rogers can step it up in a backup role.

    We have a great chance to be 3-0 at the end of the week. After we beat the Wolves tonight we have the Bucks and then the Clippers Saturday. But next week dosen't look too good. We have the Lakers twice and Portland [​IMG]

    Some are picking the Bucks to come out of the east this year.

    yeah, like he said [​IMG]

    Shandon will blow up and score a ton of points on Chauncy I'm-a-midget Billups. And Mobley will scorch them from the bench.

    We SHOULD outrebound the T-Wolves and come away with the game. Dream might even show us a move or two on Garrett and Nesterovic!

    Good to see we contained Brandon and Garnett to 50 points, 15 rebounds, 13 assists, 4 steals and 1 block.

    Holden I disagree with you that if we lose that it will be a bad sign. The Twolves beat us all 4 times last year by 17 point avg. Three of our starters have hardly even played in preseason. If we lose it is just a sign that we still have a ways to go to gel as a team and still have room to improve our game. While the game is important for playoff reasons, it doesn't mean that we won't do better than last year.

    One game in an 82 game season, especially the first, doesn't make or break a season.

    On tonights game, the T-Wolves are thin in the front court. Tom Hammands (PF) and Andrae Patterson (PF) are on IR and Joe Smith (PF) is a free agent.

    Which leaves Nesterovick (C), Dean Garrett (C) and Kevin Garnett (PF).

    Nesterovick averaged 7.8 PPG and 7.3 RPB in the preseason. Not bad, does he go 48 minutes? We know what Kevin Garnett can do, and maybe he does go 48 minutes. Dean Garrett has done nothing in the preseason, averaging 1.5 PPG and 2.5 RPB in 100 minutes in 8 games.

    Look for their small fowards Szczerbiak, Ellis, Mitchell to possibly fill in at the 4 while KG slides over to the 5. They look weak at the center spot. Maybe Hakeem and Cato can get off. Taylor and Rogers should be able to run KG all night long, especially if he's forced to defend the center position as well.

    Another item to note: Todd Day (SG) is on IR as well. If Ellis or Mitchell are going to try and guard Mobley, good luck.

    I predict that we will lose 106 - 98.
