Wolves

[riversmallmouth35]

I don't mind the court except for the big symble in the middle. I like the defferent shade of wood for inside the 3 point line and the symbols in the corners. It will take a while to get used to however. Does anyone know if they remodeld the seats to or are they all the same.

[A R Johnson]

Yeah I don't know why they did the Roy Foye trade either, I know they got cash in the deal, God I hope it wasn't just for the cash but I wouldn't be suprised if it was!

[mrklean]

THey look good might make the playoffs.......NOT Funny thing is the best coachs in minnesota are coaching at the U of M and Gardy with the twins

[Scott M]

ajklsdfjkalsdf Brandon Roy is killing the Wolves. And he was the logical choice in the 2006 draft as a senior guard that was ready to contribute...If you can forgive McHale for his body of work going into that draft, which is already a tough enough pill to swallow, how does he get off the hook for trading Roy for Foye for some stinkin' cash? Take the player you want and don't mess around.

Another lead slips away. They need a guy with a killer instinct. I'm sure they will have a run of a week or two where they run up some wins, but they aren't this bad. Competitive in each game and then find a way to pee it away at the end.

competitively losing is what they need to do. last year they screwed everything up by winning at the end.

I think alot of it is coaching!

I think alot of it is coaching!

DING DING!!! We have a winner!!!

What else can you say...they have a lead in most every game then blow it by taking horrible shots late in the game when they should be working the clock.......frustrating........Get rid of Wittman....

[Sandmannd]

You think Chilly and Whitman get together for Supper before games?

[Scott M]

Win number 2, and it went through Big Al. Foye played decent, Smith was a plus off the bench, Al asserted himself, and Mike Miller finally came to play a full 48 minutes.

[fishin58]

You forgot Love, I thought he played alright he got some much needed rebounds and had a couple nice hustle plays. He did have a couple whoops plays but I thought they out weighed his overall performance. I would take him any day over Collins that is for sure. Collins would get the ball and look like the kid that was scared to have it and try to get rid of the hot potato!

[Scott M]

Wolves beat up Detroit at Auburn Hills. Win number 3. Foye finally had a good game.

[fishin58]

Anybody watch the game?? I am limited to Fox sports for the wolves and they hardly have them on anymore. Detroit not show up or what?

[Jigger Here]

poor shooting for them, so not sure if you can say the wolves actually played defence.

[Scott M]

I will say 20-23 games this year and a top 3 lottery pick.

12 games left, perched at 20-50. We'll see how things finish. Looking at the 5th or 6th most lottery balls in the draft no matter how you slice it.

[Sandmannd]

Hopefully someone besides McFale is gonna draft this year.

[UdeLakeTom]

The papers are saying it is a weak draft...wouldn't ya know, when the Wolves have 3 1st round picks.

[bucketmouth64]

I heard Flip might be signing with the Wizards. Should the Wolves consider bringing Flip back if McHale decides not to coach? I hope Taylor has his GM and coach in place before the draft. Anyone he brings in as GM would want his type of coach and not someone already here.

[Born2Fish]

We have 3 1st rounders? When do they do the lottery pick selection?

[ozzie]

i think june

[maros91]

DRaft Lottery: May 19

NBA Draft: June 25

3- 1st round picks: Our own (Hopefully #1), #18 (Miami), #28 (Boston)

[Scott M]

I think with Jefferson they would have won 31 games

Just wondering what everybody thinks of K Love now? The kid's a pretty solid double double machine. Undersized? In today's game, perhaps. Poor defender? At times. But he can score and grab boards with the best of 'em. Mayo seemed to fizzle as the season went on, but could make a career out of scoring lots of points for bad teams and getting big contracts to do it for years at a time for other bad teams. Mike Miller didn't really do much for the team, but perhaps he just wasn't being used right.

I'm still ticked at McHale for going against the obvious pick in the 2006 draft...I can forgive him for everything but that. Brandon Roy is going to lead the Blazers to the 2nd round of the playoffs and can single handedly win games.

So who will be the new GM and coach? This town is really shaking things up...LeMaire and Risebrough, and Kevin McHale too. I know McHale isn't technically fired, but what GM is going to keep a guy that admits he hates the coaching lifestyle? Aren't you better off finding somebody that never leaves the office like some of the NFL coaches?

[EBass]

My guess it will be Fred Hoiberg for the GM and I hope Sam Mitchell will be the coach. I just don't see how Flip would come back here even if McFail was gone. Taylor signed off on letting Flip go even when it was all Cassell and Spree's fault. Flip got screwed.

The best part of the Mike Miller trade was getting rid of Marko!!!!

I imagine that next years team will even see more new faces.

Although getting Big Al and Brewer back will help out alot.

[bucketmouth64]

Taylor needs to take a page from Leipold of the Wild. Clean house and bring in new blood. McHale got rid of all the bad contracts and has left them with 3 first round draft picks this year. We have the fifth pick which possibly could get higer depending on the lottery results. The time is now McFale to leave the team in good shape for a new coach and GM. I don't think we can go thru another draft and trade away the player.
