I posted this in Sanyarin's Bill Simmons thread. It blew me away so much that I think I need to make it a thread of it's own. I honestly think we could go 1-19 (or 2-18 at best) in our first 20 games. Wow... just let that settle in...


Remaining Schedule First 20:

@Denver (L)
Atlanta (L - It's a back to back and Atlanta is actually good.)
@New Orleans (L)
@Dallas (L)
San Antonio (L)
@Memphis (L)
LA Lakers (L)
@Atlanta (L)
Phoenix (L)
@Washington (L - We could maybe win this game. It is on the road though.)
@Philly (L - It's a back to back and on the road.)

I replied in the other thread, but I basically agree.

3-17

At least one of the next few games we will get lucky with an opponent's bad shooting night.

Well depending on the other teams injuries and shooting ..... It doesnt look too good....maybe 3-4 wins...

I would say we'll be 1-19, maybe 2-18 if we get lucky. This team is incredibly inconsistent... we should have beaten Denver and certainly Atlanta. I expected a bad season, but not this bad.... it's hard to watch these games now. I go to Target Center now to see the opponents more than the home team.. except for Jefferson and Foye whenever he returns.

Other than Phoenix, Golden State, Dallas, etc, I probably won't go to many games, although I'll watch most of them on TV.

Yeah, I expected that we would suck, but I never could have imagined it would be this bad.

I also agree about seeing the other teams. Obviously the Wolves are my #1 team, but it doesn't get much better than seeing the various stars of the NBA in lower level seats for only $20 per ticket. It's really a great deal. And as much as we suck, I can't imagine the Wolves will be raising prices anytime soon...
