Wolves Updates 10-23 Part 2 E-mail

Wolves coach Randy Wittman said he’ll have some roster cuts after tonight’s exhibition finale against the Milwaukee Bucks at Target Center, but he insists no final decisions have been made.

“Those decisions are still up in the air, to be honest with you,” Wittman said after the morning shootaround. “There will be a lot of debating going on, I’m sure.”

Back to McCants. Which means back to shuffling the Janus masks. The guy came off the bench lethargically, seemingly without his head in the game, at either end of the court. He also seemed scapegoated, given that the "ball movement" mantra had produced one assist (Brewer to Big Al) and a whopping 9 points in the 10:02 he'd been sitting--and not coincidentally because Brewer and Love were getting as many "good" shots as Jefferson.

"No matter what position you take on McCants, he'll prove you wrong within 30 seconds," I said to the guy next to me (Ben, from citypages.com, a perceptive writer worth your time), and almost right on cue in the second quarter, Shaddy stole the ball and then passed it into a turnover. He repeated the same thing sequence in the third period--a nicely anticipated step into the passing lane, an ill-advised dish that made turnabout fair play.


John McMullen/Sports Network has a Wolves season preview.
The Timberwolves are clearly making strides but have little chance to contend in the ultra-tough Western Conference.


"As I told the guys, we're going to have nights like this where we didn't get a bounce on layups. We have a lot of 1-for-7s, 1-for-10s, another 1-for-7, a 1-for-5... We put that upon ourselves in the first quarter. We didn't move the ball when we were doubled. After that I thought we did, and we got back into the game. Defensively, the first eight minutes we did no talking, but then they got after it defensively."
