I've come to the conclusion that hotshotschamp is actually Sid Hartman in disguise.

I would be happy if they lose by 8. No more, no less. For my own personal reasons.

Have the beginning of the 4th quarter matter would be a good start. But to be fair, the way they destroyed teams like the Bulls and 76ers, it would take a miracle even for us to be in the mix going into the 4th quarter. I wouldn't mind seeing Al break out for a 30-10 type game. And Gomes going for 30, since I picked him in +/- lol

I just recieved a 100 dollar bonus from sportsbook and immediately put it on this game. (Celts at -8)

I don't lose either way, If I lose it this means we put up a good fight, or somehow pull off a huge win and a boost for the guys. If not, KG still finds a way to give back lol

Don't know who Brewer will actually guard, especially with that line up, but have enjoyed him "d"'ing up on Pierce in the past. I would like to see that match up a bit, though if Brewer is playing the 2 and Gomes the 3, not likely to happen much. Don't want Gomes on Allen.

Have Pierce in fantasy league though, so a great game from him would be ok, but would happily sacrifice that for a good games out of the Wolves.

I expect a horrid shooting night for MN.

LOL, this ain't gonna be pretty. We lose big at every position except maybe C and Big Al isn't 100% yet.

Normally I'd say a loss is a loss but, with this team right now, I'd be put in a staight jacket if I held on to that mentality. Ping pong balls, baby!!!!! Just try to make it entertaining, please.
