As much as I'd like to, I just can't predict a win. Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely much more optimistic than I've probably ever been in the past, but Denver is a good team.


PREDICTION:

Wolves 99 - Denver 111

I'm going to predict a win for two reasons:

1) It's their home opener

2) Most importantly, it's the \"new guys\" first game.

Well even though Denver has a thin backcourt after AI, especially with Atkins out (and isn't JR suspended?), they are still a much better team than us. I will predict we keep it close, with a spirited an energized performance that is fun to watch.

Denver 96
Minnesota 88

It should be a game filled with energy and buckets (although no Ricky Buckets), although I can't see the Wolves winning the contest hopefully it will stay respectable throughout a majority of the game.

Nuggs 104
Wolves 92

I hate those Thuggets, but I just don't see it happening.

Thuggets 98
Wolves 86

You all have us scoring an awful lot of points. Who's going to do that?

100 - 78 : THUGGETS

Jefferson and Gomes.

The Nuggets play at a fast pace without much defense. They are also missing some guys due to injuries. JR Smith is out too I believe (suspension?)

I guess I'll play the role of optimist...

Wolves 95 - Nuggets 91

AI shoots 9/27

No offense, but we have Zero chance of winning if Big Al shoots 9 for 27.

Gee, I didn't see the periods in his. Looks like \"Al\" to me.

Anyone else getting really, really excited for this one? Can't wait for tomorrow night!

By the way, check back here later tomorrow night for my recap

Yeah, I'm really excited as well! Hopefully there is some good atmosphere at the Target Center tomorrow, it is always good to get back there after a long off-season! I've also got the DVR set for the Celtics-Wizards... that should be a great game!

I cannot wait to watch that game Saturday morning. It is going to be a tough task to not see how the game played out on Friday night, considering we are going to be galavanting to several bars, but hopefully he can go unscathed and watch the game Saturday morning as if it was \"live\". Wow, that was a long sentence by yours truly, my apologies...

Don't worry, I have faith in us. As long as you don't \"accidentally\" look at any highlights at the bars. I'm also kinda concerned about SILENT ABABU #(@$)* ruining for us. That might be tough... but I think we can get by unscathed.
