Re: Game Thread: Game #39: Minnesota Timberwolves vs Detroit Pistons
Quote:
MINNEAPOLIS -- The night started with a few simple waves and nods of acknowledgement.
But when Flip Saunders was announced as the head coach for the opposing team Tuesday night, the Target Center crowd rose to its feet and gave him a standing ovation, the closest resemblance of a sendoff for Saunders, who was fired almost a year ago after 10 years as head coach.
Minnesota's Kevin Garnett, like a long-lost son to Saunders, capped the moment when he jogged across the court, slapped hands and embraced Saunders.
