Celtics -vs- Timberwolves 

Post#1 » by Egg Nog » Tue Jan 15, 2008 6:35 am

Because I'd like the T-Wolves to have a chance to win something this season :P

Boston is currently 30-6
Minnesota is currently 5-31

So Minnesota currently has the "lead", by a hair.

I guess by the time ratliff and especially foye are back 100% I guess our record won't be that bad and I don't really have that much faith that the celtics will keep up the focus later especially close to the playoffs when it should be settled for them

but I don't think either that my expectation will last as I just said it

tough one..

Minnesota will definitely get better with Foye and Ratliff as the poster before me said..and Boston has already lost 3 out of 4 games, and could have been 4 in a row if NJ didn't collapse in the 4th..teams are starting to focus on rebounding against them, which has worked out against them lately..

tough one..Minny will get better, and Boston keeping up at their pace would be very difficult..

Foye doesn't comeback until February so you're record could be pretty bad by then. But I still think you guys will win 17 games. I really think it could be a tie. Boston I think will end up 65-17 and Minny will end up 17-65.

That actually sounds like a pretty reasonable estimate. I'd put Boston around there and Minny at 15-67.

The whisper of a pretty girl can be heard further than the roar of a lion.
