There the typical young team with talent, they will stay in some games but wont go over the hump. Future is really bright though (unless management messes it up), getting Jefferson for KG is probably the best deal for a star player in awhile (see Carter, A.I., Gasol, Kidd, list goes on).


Yup, no question. Wolves have 6 losses when they led with less than a minute to go. They've blown more 3rd quarter leads and more 10+ leads than anyone else in the league. That's just growing pains.

Heck, he's part of the Spurs big three that has won two championships.

lol

I loved how Doug Collins called those final possessions, specifically Seattle.

What a frenzy there at the end of the qtr

Oden is quite likeable, but the frohawk needs to die.

i have to give credit to manu and tony parker.

they could easily taken their rings and go somewhere else and be the superstar but they've stayed with san antonio and will be there through 2010

That was an awesome game last night between the Spurs and Wolves. Manu was simply unbelievable.
