From Don Seeholzer/Pioneer Press:
Today is a day off for the Wolves, who went down to their first loss of the exhibition season Friday night in Denver.
The Wolves (2-1) return to practice Sunday and play Tuesday at Chicago.
While Love thinks 30 or more wins is attainable, Foye set the bar even higher.
“I’m saying 40 (wins) is reasonable. I feel as though we can play with anybody. We can win a lot of games. Last year we could have won a lot of games, but we lost it at the buzzer. It just takes that extra push, that extra stop, that extra rebound. We’ll be able to get some wins.
A season ago, Brewer shot 37 percent from the field and averaged 5.8 points a game in his rookie season. On Friday, in a preseason game whose outcome was both meaningless and already decided, he practically oozed offensive confidence, a quality that abandoned him all last season…
“Last year, I lost my confidence,” Brewer said. “I worked real hard this summer. I shot the ball a lot, so I could get my stroke back.”
From Sid Hartman:
Corey Brewer, who shot 37.4 percent from the floor as a Timberwolves rookie last season, has shot 51.7 percent in three preseason games.
Kevin Love and Fred Hoiberg of the Timberwolves headline the Twin Cities Dunkers breakfast Oct. 21 at the Minneapolis Club.
It’s unclear whether Polaroid, which has been owned by Tom Petters, will continue as a corporate sponsor for the Timberwolves amid his alleged fraud scandal.
