Due to popular demand from our TWolves Blog Forum members, we'll try to get Live Chat Game Threads up here on the front page of TWB from now on. Here's the first one, for tomorrow night's game vs the 13-10 Rockets at Target Center.
Can we pull it off? Coming off the epicly clutch thriller win vs the Nyets, I really hope we don't have a "let down" against the Rockets. We can beat them again, I know it.
Onward and upward... playoffs in 2012 baby!
no commentsEarlier today I mentioned that if Kahn's recent interview with Strib author Tom Powers was merely meant to temper expectations, and if the T-Wolves do indeed make a move at the deadline to acquire an impact perimeter scorer, then I might have to reevaluate my opinion of his performance as GM. (You can read the article HERE.)
One of the great truths of business, and of life, is to always underpromise and overdeliver. This more than any other factor is what lowers Kahn's perceived performance- the talk about "cap space" and how we were going to use that cap space to "make a singular move" that never happened. If the man had simply shut his mouth, we would have been in the same place as a franchise but would have felt better about his performance. In fact, aside from the ghastly Jonny Flynn pick and the squandering of Big Al Jefferson's trade value, I've often mentioned that Kahn seems like a very average GM. He's performed adequately for the most part, sometimes better, sometimes worse. He suffers the constant retrospective naysayers who advocated Love for Anthony Randolph trades 2 years ago, yet now insist that had Kahn listened to them the Timberwolves would be a playoff team by now. Clearly.
Since all that talk has clearly not endeared him to the fans, it is possible that he has chosen to learn from his mistakes and is simply downplaying the upcoming Deadline of Doom. Surely that has to be the case, right? I mean...

Unfortunately for anyone that still cares about the NBA, it doesn't look like the Lockout will be ending anytime soon. In fact, it's quite possible that we'll miss the entire season. Things have deteriorated so badly that it's looking more and more likely that the collective idiocy of the Owners and Players will squander the season, billions of dollars, and the sky-high interest, goodwill, and momentum of the NBA as we've recently known it.
And it's really quite unfortunate.
If you've got anything to add, or just want to vent about things as they currently stand, let it all go in the Livefyre Comments in this thread. Let's hear what's on your mind! There's no reason to hold anything back, as we won't exactly have much of anything else actually basketball related to discuss in the near future.

Elie Seckbach talks to Marko Jaric and Chris Kaman about a Shaq quote.
Marko is priceless in this video!
Two incredible shots by the legend that is now Blake Hoffarber. The first was his shot while laying down to send the 2005 Minnesota State High School Championship into double overtime, which was eventually won by his team (Hopkins.) He won an ESPY for this award as "Play of the Year."
The second shot is from the second round of this year's Big Ten Tournament, in which the Minnesota Gophers upset the NCAA Tournament bound Indiana Hoosiers.
