MIN tied for longest Win Streak

shrink · Post #1 » by **shrink** » Sat Jan 10, 2009 8:30 am

Only two teams have won every game in 2009 .. the Wolves and Spurs, and we both have four game winning-streaks.

Forunately, we play MIL (18-20) here, with Bogut questionable, while the Spurs (24-11) play ORL (29-8)

WEll the Bucks aint no joke as of late. We will have to bring our game to win.

I'm honestly not so sure if we'll keep up this streak. I wish we'd do but I'm not so sure.

I'm usualy not a pesimist but I say 90% chances we lose to the Bucks.

We are the favorites, even if it is just by 1 point. I think we will win. Miller is bound to go off one of these nights.

I have to say I'm surprised we're the favorites. MIL is playing well lately too, and their players are more established. Whether Bogut suits up is going to be huge.

Bogut aint suiting up. I swear he tries to duck and dive from Big Al and never plays against him. Whether he does or not though, this game will be tough.

Well, we're #1 now, and the Spurs can tie us if they beat Orlando at SA tomorrow.

Here's something amazing .. we're now the #10 seed in the West. However, I should point out we're 10.5 games behind the #9 seed (UTA), so don't rush out to get the play-off tickets yet.

11. Memphis 19.0
12. Golden State 20.0
13. LA Clippers 21.5
14. Sacramento 22.0
15. Oklahoma City 24.5

.. all in the rear-view mirror at the moment.

I think we can all agree that the first 31 games of the season were spent lulling the rest of the league into a false sense of security.

Then we spring a 40 game win streak on the league and make them quake in their Nikes.

Of course we're still 14 games below .500, but who's counting? :-)

We have the 24th best record in the NBA!

It'll be interesting to see what we do when we start facing some of the defensive frontcourts again, all our action lately has been against frontcourts where our lack of athleticism and size can't be exploited.
I won't consider any corners turned until Love and Jefferson start taking it to the teams with upper tier frontcourts

We will get a chance to see Love/Jefferson against a great frontcourt when we play Phoenix

My hope is that McHale isn't like Wittman and alters the roster based on the match-up. Screw it, play to our strengths and make them match-up to us. It's the only way these guys will grow together.
