From Chris Sheridan/ESPN:
McHale was on the road with the team the entire time — for a 10-point loss at Charlotte, an 11-point loss at Orlando and a 29-point drubbing at the hands of the New Jersey Nets that dropped their record to 4-14.
“We’re not playing good basketball right now,” McHale said after the 113-84 loss to the Nets, clearly uncomfortable discussing the state of his team. “We need to play better,” he added before gruffly cutting off the briefest of interviews and heading for the team bus.
The Timberwolves, who opened the season 1-8 before winning three of five, have now lost four in a row but are still one game ahead of the pace they were on last season when they opened the season with 15 losses in their first 18 games.
