Klomp to the rescue. Oh boy, I can't wait for 529 mentions of the Foye-Roy draft day trade from the announcers.

Looking for some good play from Flynn and Brewer tonight.

If big Al gets a little bit of his touch back and Pecherov make 24 points instead of 2, we can win the game... But I'd be happy of Sessions and Flynn get more court time together...

if it was for me... I always read the forum, I never get to see T'Wolves games here on TV, even the scores of the games, as many of you know, we're the "soccer country", I became T'Wolves fan 'cause I loved the jersey when I was playing a crazy basketball game 15-16 years ago... This forum is the better way to talk to T'Wolves fans like me and know the news... What a crazy way to become a fan... :P

Are you really a Timberwolves fan, or just an NBA fan in general? It would be nice to have an ambassador in Brasil.

Eu falo um pouquinho de portugues....Bem-vindo!

Man they aren't playing when they say bold predictions.

Al Jeff getting 25 and 10?

Flynn outscoring Roy?

Oden will destroy a recovering Al on both ends, especially since Jefferson can't draw a foul to save his life. Our 6'8 SG Brewer will get blocked a seemingly impossible amount of times. We'll lose. Go Wolves!

1. I think Oden will bite on a bunch of pumpfakes.
2. Brewer will be matched up on either Blake or Miller. If he can't get his shot off over them, there are SERIOUS issues.

NBA TV and the star Tribune were starting to put Flynn/Jennings on the level of Roy/Foye I was like WTF!? People love pulling the "Wolves are idiots" trigger as soon as they can. How the hell does Flynn/Jennings even relate?

I'm a T'Wolves fan... Of couse I cheer for brazillian players like, but when they face the Wolves, I want them to play good but lose the game...

Muito obrigado, de onde você é e como aprendeu a falar português? Geralmente os entrangeiros não se interessam em aprender a nossa lingua... :D

We got to go up against all that length. This is not going to be fun.
