Timberwolves are 1-5 but I have a terrible feeling about this.

I wonder if their fans on TWolves RealGM board, are whining, calling for the GM to be fired, acting like the season is already over, like our board over here?












Still a long season to go, playoffs are still the goal! :wink:

The Minnesota Timberwolves IR:
- Ricky Rubio (elbow) is out indefinitely
- Nikola Pekovic (foot) is out indefinitely

The Orlando Magic IR:
- Nikola Vucevic is still battling a sore shoulder, but is expected to play
- Evan Fournier was reported to have a sore back by Cody Taylor of Basketball Insiders, but Coach Vogel said he expects Fournier to play
- Jodie Meeks (foot) is out; targeting return in late November

Interested to see if a lineup change actually materializes tonight. I'm going to bet nothing changes with the starters, but Vogel may adjust his rotations.

Also, Andrew Wiggins vs. Aaron Gordon should be interesting. Wiggins is coming off a career high 36 points, with 6 made 3 pointers.

I don't think the season is over and I don't want our GM fired, but I think the TWolves have reason to be more optimistic than we are right now.

I'm not panicking yet but the overall effort by the Magic has been pretty disheartening so far. Would love to see them come out tonight like they did against the Kings.

I live in the midwest now, so I will finally get to watch some games without digging up some crappy stream.

This a game we can win without a doubt. But we need to execute everything well. Like others I am worried about tonight like I Ave been about every game because we haven't looked good in almost any game we have played in. If we can control Kat & lavine. Control the paint and boards we can win. No second chance opportunities please. These are games we need to win to even think about making the playoffs

Vogel said no lineup change for starters tonight. might happen in the future though.

T-Wolves coming off a loss to the Nets... not feeling great about this one. Were not going to see a starting lineup change tonight either. We need to win this game though.

I saw an article suggesting Vogel may start Biyombo/someone else over vooch, in the near future! If that is the case... what are the odds we see more zimmerman? and what are the odds we see vooch traded by the ASB?
Favorite Magic players of all time:
1. Dennis Scott
2. Andrew Nicholson
3. Anthony "no-neck" Johnson

The Kings game is the only game this season where we haven't fallen behind by a big margin. That can't keep happening.
