Game 24: Blazers(7-17) @ Wolves(13-10)
@
Sheefo's Keys to the Game:This is another should win for the Wolves. The Blazers haven't scored over the century mark this season. So play the tough defense, and let Wally and Huddy get a bunch of shots. KG is going to have to contain Randolph downlow. We can not allow him to have his way like he did in the first game of the season. Hopefully we will see more Griffin and McCants in this one. More minutes the better for those two, especially Griffin.
Prediction:W
Prediction Record:(14-9)

Woo. Our 3rd matchups this season, it's pretty quick to get over the series. I hope it is going to be a W tonight and losing at home is pretty bad excuse to a team that is under .500.

Portland is also 2-11 on the road and has not won a game against a team in the NW division(0-6).

That's a huge advantage.
Darius Miles is still out? Then I must say, more advantage. Wolves is pulling down rebounds more than ever at the beginning of season as Portland's among the worst rebounding team. That's another reason for us to take that advantage over them.

Basically if we play consistent ball, we should win.

Re: Game 24: Blazers(7-17) @ Wolves(13-10)
Being outscored 18-4 in the 4th Q so far. How are the Wolves losing to the freaking Blazers?

Re: Game 24: Blazers(7-17) @ Wolves(13-10)
I got to give Portland credits tonight. They were hustling so well and make the shots. They were able to convert offensive rebounds into 2nd chance scoring and the bench did good job contributing unlike the Wolves' bench. Besides Hudson with 5 points, the bench managed not to get involved much with their scoring and only got 2.
I don't know why Wally missed some crucial shots late in the game like he did earlier he went cold after a hot first half and partly 3rd quarter. KG wasn't as aggressive in the 2nd half like he was in 1st. They made some careless plays and Marko Jaric should have made some difficult layups at the last minute and unfortunately the game went in favor of the Blazers.
Also, I don't understand why Troy rather fouled Steve Blake way later when there were some chances they can get back in game. They have wasted more minutes and therefore they earned themselves a loss. Like I said, I gotta give props to Ruben, Zach and the Blazers.

Re: Game 24: Blazers(7-17) @ Wolves(13-10)
i really don't follow KG this season.
patterson shut down wally in the 4th.
kg is able to step up on anyone in this league...why doesn't he carry the wolves more?
it will soure be helpfull when wally is shutdown,and anyway KG supposed to be the leader.
and is it just me or the toughness of our team broke?
i don't think were as think as we were,hope Case' will do some talking to everybody in general,and get on the hardwork.
lets play some tough ball c'mon!
the suns aint gonna give us any easy shots either.

Not sure. The difference in impacts between Duncan and him is what keeps him as the 2nd best power forward in the NBA.
