C: Shaquille O'Neal ... Jason Collins

PF: Amare Stoudemire ... Al Jefferson

SF: Matt Barnes ... Ryan Gomes

SG: Raja Bell ... Mike Miller

PG: Steve Nash ... Randy Foye

GAME NOTES:

Minnesota (3-9) has not played since upsetting Detroit on Sunday with a 106-80 road win. The Timberwolves held Allen Iverson, Rasheed Wallace and Richard Hamilton to 8-of-32 shooting. Randy Foye had a career-high 14 assists to go with 23 points.

The Wolves are 2-1 since an eight-game losing skid and top the NBA in assists but are last in steals.

Al Jefferson averaged 30.5 points and 15.3 rebounds vs. Phoenix last season.

We need to come out kickin and punching after almost getting our asses handed to us by the worst team in the League! Go SUNS!!

I'm curious to know what he has averaged against Shaq for his career. I don't believe he has played the Suns against Shaq yet.

I need a link to this game. I am stuck at work again. I listened last night on the radio and it nearly killed me. If McCoy wasn't as good as he always is, I would have no hair left on my noggin.

LINK PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE!

Wolves are as blessed as the Lakers when it comes to getting rest between games.

pre-Shaq trade I would have had a good feeling that we might have a decent chance to win vs your team but now with Shaq I'd say our chances are slim to none

good game folks!

we have a history of bringing rookies along slowly and recently we just needed size

Shaq is running around like he has lead feet or something tonight.

nash is back! one 1 TO

he need to shoot more when shaq is there to make the inside out effective.

but amare still getting less shot attempt. lets see in the 2nd half.

singletery replaced dragic as a backup point guard

I'm enjoying the lack of ticky-tac calls tonight.

3rd quarter...71-58 Suns. Jefferson still abuses the Suns though

That call on Barnes :lol:

He barely touched Miller's ribs or whatever he 'fouled'
