–Craig Smith, Ryan Gomes and Al Jefferson are
beastly. When they lift, the weights should say “underappreciated” on
them. Jefferson ate Zach Randolph for breakfast—quite a role reversal,
I know—in the first quarter. Getting ahead of myself here, but if the
Wolves can land a Derrick Rose or OJ Mayo in next year’s draft, the
young beasts in the Target Center will be on point. Literally.

–Really, I just wish Bassy could a freaking
jumpshot. I’m pulling for him and I feel bad for him because it would
make his life so much easier and his future a lot less European.

Mike Trudell/Timberwolves site talked to the Vikings Adrian Peterson during the Wolves home opener:
The Wolves are playing good team basketball. They definitely have some
guys that can score and put some points on the board. I’ve noticed
that, but this is my first game so I’m just enjoying it.

The Vikings Dwight Smith on whether he was surprised by the Wolves early run in the first game of the season:
No. When you get a bunch of young guys together you expect to see
exciting basketball. We all knew Rashad McCants could play. It’s all
about confidence when you get to this level because everybody’s
basically the same talent.
