    What? McCants's out with some sort of Ankle injury - the sort Yao could have claimed exactly? Where's the professionalism? Where's the pride? How come Wolves don't want to develop their young players? :p

    JVG is a good coach but he is pigheaded. Only a few games left and Yao gone, whats the sense of trying to win now, he should play Hayes and Lampe 30 plus minutes the remainder of the season. Lets see what they can do. He won't though, JVG is myopic.

    If you are hard-working, you don't need to be very smart to be moderately successful in the U.S. I thought you already know that. :p

    Am I right, are these the projected starters?

    Alston
    Wesley
    Bogans
    Howard
    Swift

    vs

    Reed
    Griffin
    Blount
    Banks
    Bracey Wright/Trenton Hassell?

    WOW that is bad.

    The Swift-Griffin underachieving big-men battle will be the greatest since Benoit Benjamin and Steve Stipanovich used to go at it.

    Blount and Banks have to play really well for us to lose.

    Wow, starting Deke over stro. I thought they'd let stro start since it doesn't matter anymore.

    Minny definitely is tanking. They didn't even try to win the tip :p

    What the f**k was JVG thinking? He started Mutombo instead of Swift. Play young players for the future, for crying out loud :mad:

    And guess who checked in for JHO, Mutombo. Does it really hurt to play Lampe or Hayes? WTF is wrong with Van Gundy :mad: :mad:

    Because they'll play hard and might accidentally help us win.

    tank!
