Scott K Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 It was a nice game by the Wolves last night. Love looked good in the second half. We may just win 35 games this year. With season opener less then a week away, how many wins do you predict for this season? I will say 35-40 missing the playoffs again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maros91 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 We may just win 35 games this year. I wouldn't get to pumped over a pre-season game. I will say 20-23 games this year and a top 3 lottery pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mnwild Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I would have to agree with that one, 20-25 wins. They are still a very young team and there is much better talent on the other teams from the Western Conf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya that OJ Mayo trade looks like it is going to bite us in the rear, but only time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzie Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 oh I am going to be the homer on this one as this is my fav. MN team and I am going to say they win 32-37 games.....They have a better squad than last year and they won 22 games last year and lost a few last year in the 4th...with Foye healthy and the addition of Mike Miller we will definatly win 30+............I hope!!

hamrej23 Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 I think a # 8 seed in the playoffs is in the mix--Corey Brewer I heard was much improved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A R Johnson Posted October 24, 2008 Share Posted October 24, 2008 What I have seen of them they haven't impressed me at all. After watching(Wed. night) love missing baskets when he is right under the basket I just had to turn the channel. Why god why did we make that trade?

Scott M Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 They got some good bit players in the trade. I like Mike Miller to keep help defenders honest. Mayo probably would have walked away when his rookie contract expired. At least Love wants to be here. Who wants a Vancouver-Steve Francis situation?I like them to win 31 games. That is my prediction. 31-51. They'll show some flashes. Hopefully they can add some free agents next year and score a nice draft pick.

A R Johnson Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 I would have rather takin that chance. How many average bit players do you want on a team??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walters Posted October 27, 2008 Share Posted October 27, 2008 Anybody going to season opener? I got free tickets in row 8 so I'm gonna be there. These will be the best seats I've had and hope that it will make the game more interesting than the last game I went to, which was the worst professional sporting event I've ever seen.

Sandmannd Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'm hoping they do well, but I don't have a lot of faith in the team. I'll still go to a few games, I enjoy basketball, but I hope they get something together soon and start to compete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dahitman44 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 Crazy guy on the fan said we will win 52 games -- I don't think so, but we will be much much better, competitive and close. I think we will lose 20 3-point games. But that is getting better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarsusd81 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 My girlfriend got some free tickets for the opener tonight. We will be in 112.I have only been to one game, and that was in a suite. We will see how being close to the court is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandmannd Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 Was a decent game for the little I watched it. They looked good for how young they are and got a win. How'd you like the close seats Tom? I try to go to a few every year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozzie Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 They looked pretty good.....too bad Sacramento isn't going to be good this year but a win is a win!! Kevin Love 12 points 9 rebounds! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sandmannd Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 any thoughts on the court? ugliets thing i have ever seen. Yea, matched those butt ugly new uniforms!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Grande Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 I think they'll win around 30 games. They'll be a fun team to watch as their offense will be pretty dynamic when then get used to playing together. Their defense really sucks though, Brewer is the only guy on the roster that can defend his position.I thought Love looked great in the win. They were like +20 with him on the court, Wittman should have played him more. I know it's only one game, but Mayo was like 5/20 from the field. He's gonna take a ton of shots this year on that team.

Burnham Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 i dont know bout the uniforms, but the court looks awesome. they copied the mavs tho with the logo by the 3 point line. i watched bits and pieces, they will suprise people. 35-45 wins, 7th or 8th seed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott M Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 Boy, I don't get that one. Down by 3 to Oklahoma City after leading by 12 and Miller doesn't take the final shot? Great game by Randy Foye. 0 for 10 and 2 points. Meanwhile Brandon Roy is averaging 20 a game. Ouch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jigger Here Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 yea, Foye sucks,Like so see Ollie play more, think that's his name, and get Love more time, i know it's early and trying to bring him in slow, but do it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrappiesNCats Posted November 3, 2008 Share Posted November 3, 2008 i cannot get used to the court. the announcers say it looks sharp, but it clashes, horribly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
