http://www.nba.com/timberwolves/media/J ... 091129.mp3Big Al seems to be a believer, maybe he was just coming off the high of winning a big game but I got the feeling he will be expecting more wins like that in the future.
Also a nice article on how the mood has changed after just one win.

Even after a win, its tough for someone to remain positive while in such a deep hole. As one of the team leaders, I'm glad Al is taking charge off the court too.

well effort really has been lacking in a lot of those losses. If we can find even 6 guys who aren't just mailing it in every night because they don't expect to be back next year, we won't be blown out by 20 most nights.

Has anyone checked Al Jefferson's water bottle for alcohol?

I don't think there are 6 guys that expect to be back next year. That's the down side to having a roster full of mediocre-to-bad players on expiring contracts.

Yeah. But shouldn't they play even harder for a new contract?

Yes they should but that's why they are bad players. I like the honesty, though. At least they aren't pulling a Mike James to cheat some poor shmuck of a GM out of $25 million.
