Game 47: Wolves vs. Rockets, Monday, 2/4, 7:00pm, FSNN

Yeah, Wolves have 93 hours and no traveling until their next game, and KG might not play, and Wolves have been monsters lately after losing close games. I don't like Boston's chances.

Wolves are goign to snap in practice. Hopefully Foye gets some good use out of this.

I don't blame the coach. I bet he thought that the player would know he should face the basket before he shot the 28 footer.

what about calling for a play that is suited for big al instead of a shooter?

Someone's got to put that overhead shot of Al faking out Yao on Youtube.

Thats my biggest problem with NBA coaches, as soon as they are behind near the end of games they ignore the big guys and decide they have to let someone chuck up 3's to get back in the game instead of doing what has worked throughout the game.

Big Al gets knocked on his defense a lot but I think he did a good job on Yao tonight.

I agree, but that didn't look to me like the coach called for all three-pointers at the end of the game, at least if I can read Al's face right. That looked conspicuously like selfishness. I expect McCants to take more shots since that's part of his role, but to me he seems to give himself the green light a little too much. Antoine Walker is the same way. how many points does Al need to score to show that he's option #1 all the time?

especially with 30 seconds left on the clock. I mean they nearly could have executed a regular set play while trying to stop the clock later with like 15 seconds left.

in this case I really don't blame rashad, I blame RSW. but that's okay, we had a few nice games in the past days so IMO we were overdue for a loss...

He did a GREAT job, stripping the ball and blocking his shots a couple times.

Good game guys, love the core you have Jefferson is a flipping monster, McCants and Foye are extremely talented, then add guys like Brewer, Smith, Telfair (Steve Nash tonight haha, especially with that base line move not terminating his dribble) and then what should be a lottery pick, you'll be a force in the future.

Good luck the rest of the way.
