Since the Twins game has been weathered out lets talk about the local cagers one last time. They are 40-41 on the year, which is the 8th highest win total in the 25 years of existence.
Think about that.
Why do we choose to follow this team?
Couple of milestones in store tonight: Kevin Love could become the first Timberwolves player to eclipse the 2000 point barrier
Ricky Rubio need 3 assists to reach 700
The Wolves really need to win this one to finally end the streak of eight consecutive losing seasons. The Wolves went to the playoffs eight consecutive years (including twice when they didn't have a winning record) and since then, this is now the 10th consecutive year of missing the playoffs.
This is a game the I fully expect them to win, but also fully expect them to lose.
Need a new nickname for the Rubio-Gorgui pick n roll
That quarter was sad
So we want a .500 season more than the players?
It seems like it.
It would be so Wolves-y to get blown out at home to one of the league's worst teams with a chance to finish with a non-losing record.
This is the part of the game where Mark Madsen comes out of retirement and starts hoisting 3's
To be fair, I think lottery position was at stake when that happened.
Huh, I fully expected the near-20 point deficit to keep getting worse when the second-string was in, but evidently Utah's second-string is even worse than Minny's.
The Wolves have the lead!
But man this is an ugly basketball game
So much for that having a lead idea.
Welp, I think I have had enough of this game for a bit. This Montreal -Tampa hockey game is a barn burner. CNBC has the CBC feed too!
Kevin Love looks like he wants to be anywhere else but at Target Center
But enough about every ESPN story about Love.
I'll give them the headline.
"42 losses for the team who is about to lose #42..."
This Gobert guy for Utah is TALL.
He automatically becomes a Top 10 favorite non-Wolves NBA player.
THis game will not end!
Huh, I thought it would be over by the time I'd driven home. Free basketball!
I guess the Wolves have to settle for 40-42.
But just wait till next year!
