Nah, I don't think that's it at all. Overconfidence maybe.

Whatever, it was very good game. A win would've been nice, but Telfair and Big Al played amazingly.

Shut your mouth and go back to the trade board. We'll call you when Al Harrington hits a game winner.

I think that was a set play. He ran off te screen and took the shot like that was plan all along.

The latter.


That doesn't make sense to me. I know he's struggled mightily this season, but he's not going to get better riding on the bench and it's not like the Wolves are playing for anything.

It was a close game all night, and everyone else was playing well - Foye's minutes are going to have to come from somewhere. I love Corey, but 8 minutes in a game that goes down to the wire doesn't bother me. He's averaging 22, that's in line with the other rookies, don't judge by one game.

That's very true. I imagine that BOS demanded we take Telfair to match part of KG's salary, but it looks like he's really turning into the player people thought he would at the beginning of his career.

Al continues to demonstrate he's better than we even hoped.

Rockets fan here. Big AL is a beast! You guys played an incredible game. If it wasn't for Tmac, you guys would've pulled off the upset. I really like your young players. Your team has a very bright future. I can see the wolves competing for the playoffs in a year or 2.

Al outplayed the entire Rockets starting frontcourt.

Al 33-16, Yao,Battier,Scola 32-19.

The Wolves just need one more scorer ,hopefully Foye when he gets back up to speed and they will win these type of games.

I don't blame the coach. I bet he thought that the player would know he should face the basket before he shot the 28 footer.

This was a fun game to watch. So much better than all those games the last few years when everyone was just standing around. I like the future of this team.
