So basically we've been a good team since last year but really immature and inexperienced, not focusing against lesser teams. See how beating bad teams can help your record. Shocking!weimy froob wrote: ↑Sat Jan 13, 2024 6:27 pm Alan Horton

Re: How Good Are We **Poll**
I wish I could change my answer to #1
It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

really hope we can go 4-1 last five into the AS break. i think we can take the Bucks. Clippers always pose problems.
There is little difference between the memory of a real event and the memory of a dream.

Re: How Good Are We **Poll**
Naz Reid led the TWolves last night with a +3 (+/- )…only a couple players with + ratings last night.
The Bulls had 15 blocks, we had 5. Ant led the #3 rebounder for the wolves by 7 boards., KAT who had only 5 rebounds and 16 3point attempts..coincidence?
We are obviously trying to play 3 ball, and when that fails ISO Ant and he then kicks to KAT for the 3 if doubled. I don’t care for that because it’s too easy to predict an defend, and when you do that you can go on 18-5 runs, which teams always do to us..

The Wolves are 11-9 in the new year for a .550 win percentage which is equivalent to the 8th seed. This team has not looked good for 6 weeks now, they REALLY need to figure out their 4th quarter woes.

We need to start winning more than half our games again.

Re: How Good Are We **Poll**
Could we go 22-6 to win 60? Think what that momentum would be going into the playoffs.. I’m not saying it’s likely, but..
