Celtics vs Timberwolves - Sunday February 1st

Post #1 » by **GYBE** » Sun Feb 1, 2009 2:12 pm

I wanted to get a game thread up to remind everyone that we have an early game today at noon.

The Wolves had a great January, going 10-4. It's always fun to watch Big Al do his thing, still one of my favourite players in the league. After getting snubbed for the All Star team he dropped 34/13 on the Lakers in his last game. The Wolves start two other ex-C's with Gomes and Telfair.

Celtics 109 Timberwolves 95

It will be good to see Big Al back in the garden.

P.S. awesome sports lineup today.

If WTB puts his up, we can merger or delete this. 12pm start is really odd, but I am psyched nonetheless.

Noon start? goddamn. I love these games against Minny, they're always good stuff.

Ot, but was anyone else up watching the St Pierre/Penn ufc last night? BJ got his **** pushed in.

Very OT: Anyone on here work at or own a sign store? I've got an idea of some sign I wanna try and get made up for the Lakers game Thurs.

That's no good. Any idea who gets the start? Powe? Baby probably

Perk was fined $10,000, but no suspension. Davis gets the start today. (according to Boston.com)

It is funny seeing this minny lineup. Each one of them has some new england ties.

High scoring game early.

Powe wasn't even close to touching Big Al.

Pretty bad call there.

Nice floater perk!

TA had a nice move to end the quarter. He's been really aggressive so far.

I want Rondo to start looking for his own offense. A few times in the quarter he had some great chances to finish at the hoop, but chose to pass it off instead.

Nice close of the quarter without KG.... 8-)

Pierce is getting mauled out there. He's been fouled on every one of his misses.

Lol at this cardinal talk from Mike and Tommy.

This 2nd unit offense struggles with TA out there.

I'm sorry, but those are some ugly uniforms. They should have went with a darker blue. I went to the minny board, and I saw some of their sigs and avys, and they were nice, black and blue colors, wolves. Minny should have went to them for their design taste.

Ray allen is awesome. That pass to eddie was great!
