Myles Brown/SLAM Online takes a look at the upcoming season.
I expect the Wolves to make significant strides in the right direction this year. If I had to put a number on it, I’d say barring any serious injuries, a respectable 37-45 campaign sounds about right. I know, nothing special at all, but it’s still a 15 game improvement and another lottery pick. Which hopefully will be enough to maintain team morale, build through the draft and free agency and get me a slightly less confrontational phone call from Kevin Love.

Did you think falling into Al might affect your status on the team?

Haha. I thought that might have gotten me a plane ticket home. It was a goofy situation. I think I was guarding Madsen at the time and all I remember is the ball ending up hitting my head or something causing me to fall down. The next thing I heard was someone scream and I prayed that it wasn’t Al and there he is on the floor bellowing in pain. I felt really bad at the time, but even worse when a day-or-two later I saw that he going to be out for two-to-three weeks. I didn’t know how much longer I was going to be around.
From Mike Max/WCCO:
There is no doubt that the Minnesota Timberwolves are still interested to trade proposals for Rahsad McCants.
Newcomer Timberwolves forward Mike Miller said he did something different in the off-season.
“I don’t usually play a whole lot of pick up ball during the summer, it’s a lot of the same workout that I’ve always done. But I’ve brought both to the table this year just because I wanted to play with these guys early so it’s not new when training camp comes. I kind of got to understand each player,” Miller said.
So long as you are a Republican, Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor is a generous man. If you are the National Republican Senatorial Committee, Taylor is exceedingly generous–$45,000 generous. Here is a man who wants a Republican-controlled Senate and is willing to pay for it.
Wolves rookie Kevin Love’s famed full-court practice shots — real and available to be seen all over youtube.com — makes him a credible candidate for a Topps Trading Card video shoot in which Love proves himself to be the “King of the Trick Shots.”
