I'm in North Dakota, most of the problem here is humidity, I hate summer too, our winter lasted so long this year and I loved it, but it literally went from about -10C to +20C in a day and has stayed over 20 every day since.

15-20, no, but 20-25: San Diego and the Canary Islands. 15-25 in Cadiz, up to 30 in the summer. You could hang out w/ the Timbertrolls.

I would like to tell you guys how I end up here.

I was an avid basketball fan when we had cable back then.07 or 08 i think? I always watched NBA games in BTV. But our cable was illegal and when the cable company found about it they immediately cut us off. Bummer

Then I got addicted with basketball games specifically Live08 (we had a crappy laptop.thats the best bball game i can play) since I cant watch NBA games anymore.
I always pick teams with nice jerseys in Dynasty Mode (i like black/dark themed jerseys)
Boils down between Memphis,Minnesota and Kings.

And then in 2011 we bought a Internet broadband(prepaid internet.you load it to use it.about 2 dollars for 3 days).

Then i found out about Love's 30-30 game.
Checked him out in Live08(lol). I like him already. Great rebounder with a 3 point shot.

Then the Wolves became very interesting and appealing.
Rubio coming from Spain(I love pass first PG's like Rondo)
Found out that Beasley was traded to the Wolves (I thought he was gonna beast. I always said that he was better than Griffin.)
Dwill (many said he's poor man's Lebron)
Barea (after watching him decimate the Heat in the Finals)
And after I watched Tolliver's parody of the Decision and other Timberwolves antics,
I said to myself "Dammit Im gonna be a Wolves fan"

But i still cant follow the Wolves.
Loading the broadband was too expensive for my small allowance.
I just played a Dynasty Mode with the Wolves in Live08.
I went to 5 seasons long and didnt trade a single player (i thought trading even 1 player wont feel like I'm playing the Wolves)

But I was aware of whats happening that season because we seldom go to Compute Rentals.
How Rubio and Love spearheading the Wolves to the playoffs. Was really surprised about that.
But then the Rubio injury, Beasley being a headcase,Dwill underachieving and string of losses, and the season went to dumpster instantly. But was impressed with Pekovic's improvement so I was optimistic next season.

Then the offseason came. Was really impressed.
Great subtractions with Beasley,Wes,Darko and great additions with AK,Bud.
I was neutral with Roy and Dham.
I had great expectations for the season

then I found out about a mobile app that gives you free mobile internet access.
That way I can follow the Wolves and boxscore watch

Was especially impressed and proud with Wolves playing with injury. We were was high as 6th place in the West at 1 point!!
I read all articles about the Wolves. But no one in school wants to talk about the Wolves even though they we're in the playoff race so I searched for a Twolves forum and found realGM. I was just a lurker. Then made an account just for fun

Then Wolves' season came crashing down again with more injuries. A season full of what ifs. Im still optimistic with next season and I feel we'll make the playoffs finally.

In total I've only watched 3 Wolves games in tv (1 in 2011 against Lakers and 2 this season against Cats and Rox)

my dream is to watch a Wolves game live at the Target Center with Brandon Roy sitting next to me
Trust the PRosas!

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
