So the Wolves ended up coming back and made a game out of it, and we barely lost.

Never would have thunk it without K-Lav. Damn, we've been so decimated by injuries this year. Ohhhh, what could have been... :(
Question: "Hey Antoine Walker, why do you shoot so many 3's?"

Answer: "Because there are no 4's."

So... Anthony Randolph led all scorers with 28.

!!!


I hope you all have your Armageddon supplies ready.

Fact: Barea's 15 assists were the most by a Wolves player since T Hud in 2003.

Beasley is pissed off, made some comments to that effect yesterday. I don't blame him. He isn't very good, but Wes Johnson does not deserve a second of his playing time. If the Wolves are going to win games on the offensive end and completely ignore defense, then Beasley should be playing 30+ mpg unconditionally. Plain and simple.

Pretty good game in the end. Some Ewing Theory going on here. I suspect we'll continue to see it. Of course I write a scathing post on the AR trade in the offseason thread and he completely dominates hours later. Good to see it.

Where are these Beasley comments? I'm not finding them. I agree with you though. And I think the same holds true for Randolph, maybe to a lessor extent. Adelman never really gives him a chance unless he has to.

Buuuuut, I am in the camp that thinks Adelman is pretty much always right, and I try not to question him for the most part. :kiss:

Love, Pecko, D. Will, & Wes are supposed to come to our company HQ tomorrow afternoon to sign autographs for an hour...I was already plotting what I was gonna say to/ask Love. Now I am doubting he will be there, due to the concussion...Hopefully I'm wrong.

Did ANYONE see this game...if so I'd like to hear more about how Randolph, Caged Lion, etc were doing work...

I know. It's really hard to question Adelman, isn't it? I agree for the most part. Couple things here and there that have irked, but if you or I were coach this team probably would be the worst team in the league :)

I missed most of AR/D-Will dominating. I turned it off and then finally tuned back in when they were close. Missed the whole run because I just assumed we were getting crushed last night. AR was getting all he wanted inside from the little I saw of him producing. D Will was ON but his crossover move is so predictable and he was stripped in consecutive possessions and never did anything else late in the 4th.

AR blocked a ton of shots too. But he suffers from Dwight/DeAndre syndrome: he goes for the highlight block and bats it as hard as possible vs. making the smart play. One example: blocks a Ty Lawson drive, swats the $hit out of it...but it lands right in Gallo's hands for a wide open three after everyone on the Wolves crashed the glass.

So, to that effect, his blocks seemed to hurt us more than anything.

Oh, Beasley. Couldn't find anything this morning but Zgoda tweeting one of his comments last night. "I guess they don't like me here" or something...

Kind of a baby, but it's perfectly reasonable if offense is going to be this team's single priority.

AR does this every year. Plays like shyt all season long and then towards the end of the season puts up 20/10 stat lines in meaningless games. It means nothing. The next step is the obligatory "he put on 15 lbs of muscle" during the offseason but when the season starts he looks exactly the same of course.

Hahahaha yep, he does. I've had enough of him and wouldn't even want him back. I don't think there's any hope of him being a productive member of the team for an entire season.

He's a Free Agent. Let's just move on from him.
