We now have Wayne looking like a legit NBA player.

Wes hasn't sucked playing at the 3.

Darko and Pek combined to put up 21 points, 14 boards and 8 blocks last night and are averaging 17/7/3 over the last 5 games.

How much of that is Adelman, and how much more will he be able to bring out of the players having a full offseason, a full training camp, and next season actually having time to practice?

We are now 8-10 and a significant part of our rotation has been wearing street clothes. Is this what optimisim feels like?

If we were in the East we'd be the 7th seed in the playoffs, ready to crap all over Miami on their homecourt. Instead we're in the West and the 11th seed. Remember the year that Stern worried about the Lakers getting knocked out early so he made the first round a 7 game series mid-season? Could he move us to the East mid-season?

I'll hang up and listen.

We belong in the east anyway. All our regional matchups in the other sports are Wisconsin/Michigan/Ohio/Missouri

That would make his Hornets' pick less valuable, so no. Stern would be more likely to call refs assigned to Wolves games and give the Wolves even less respect and more crap calls.

Well they didn't extend Gordon so he'll be a restricted free agent. ESPNNEWS said unrestricted but that can't be right. Let's put in a offer!

Memphis would be the first the NBA would switch to the East.

Optimis-ism: Wisdom from Optimus-Prime

We are only 2.5 games behind the #3 seed in the WC.

I honestly think if we could add a quality veteran starter like a Pierce, Allen or Gordon and stay healthy (as a team) that we could compete for the western conference championship.

Gordon is not the guy you want to mention in the same sentence as "healthy" guys missed a lot of games. Unless you are talking about Ben?

I found the fact he thinks we could win the West Conference more troubling than wanting gordon or thinking he is healthy. I would Love Gordon on this team his injuries are not as bad as hyped up imo.

Not Gordon. Iguodala or Deng maybe.
