Do you ever wish you were in control of a NBA team?  I mean, total and complete control within the grasp of your fingertips to do as you see fit?  I wish that upon myself once or twice every day.  I often ponder to myself just how exactly the current Front Office of the Minnesota Timberwolves continues to remain in charge of the day to day operations.

The unthinkable happened. The Minnesota Timberwolves traded their heart and soul, Kevin Garnett. I knew it could happen, I just didn’t think this time would finally come. After 12 wonderful years, Garnett is gone. Our KG is now the Boston Celtic’s KG. What do we do now?

Wolves coach Randy Wittman has three options at point guard — Randy Foye, Marko Jaric and Telfair. Wittman wants to use Foye more as an off-guard and scorer, and Jaric lost the point guard job two years ago, although he does offer defense at the position.

The Futures lines are out for the 2007-08 NBA Champion. If gambling were legal, I’d offer some insight into who is going to win it all. But since gambling isn’t legal… ah, who am I kidding. I love gambling. The legality of it is a minor obstacle, much like an annoying gnat that won’t leave me alone.

9 road wins.

The second worst road record in the Western Conference.

That was last year. That was the past. Wednesday marked the start of a whole new season for Minnesota Timberwolves basketball.

Snake bitten.

That’s how I feel.  Luckily it wasn’t a venomous snake.  It’s not going to kill me.  I will survive and come back stronger than before. It’s like looking for water in an unknown land and turning over a rock to find a snake, rather than an oasis.  Disappointing and a little annoyance followed by a brief flash of pain. Don’t worry, it won’t slow me down too much.

The Contenders :

1.  Spurs:  (Over/Under 55.5)

               My pre-season favorite to win it all this year.  You can look for at least a 60 win season from the rejuvenated potential number one squad out west.  Tim Duncan is hungry and healthy, a very deadly combination indeed.  This is a team that came within one stupid foul from making the Finals last season, even without a fully healthy Duncan.  The Over seems like a pretty safe bet for this squad to me.

I wish I could blame the new ball.  I really do.

Perhaps we could blame the officiating?  But it wasn’t overly bad.  Or, at least not noticeably so.

I had an article almost completed detailing possible trade destinations for KG this season, and what we could reasonably expect to receive in return. However, the more I typed and considered each possibility, the more depressed I became. We shouldn’t trade KG. I don’t want to trade KG. We can’t trade KG. no comments

A comparison of Timberwolves players to various “Types” of chicks. This is not meant to offend, just to be funny!

Kevin Garnett is the incredibly hot chick with the loser boyfriend. She is all around hot. Nice body, nice personality, but has some ugly, loser boyfriend that keeps holding her back.
