my only real gripe is foye only getting like 6 minutes court time.. jaric should not be burying randy on the pine.
james and davis didnt put up big scoring numbers this game, but i think they look good... james is confident bringing the ball up, drive and dish.... he was working well with ricky early on, even though it didnt result in a lot of points from them.
nice games from Kg hassel and griffin.
also good to see hudson back giving us the offensive spark off the bench.

nice win overall, especially seeng as bibby was in the line up... lets hope this continues, especially the 4th quarter effort

The King of the World

22 offensive boards for Sacto??

It's gonna be a long season on the glass for KG.

Nice to start the season with a win though

Foye playing 6 minutes, we knew it was coming. Cuz we already discussed about it before the season opener. James was OK, that was his first game with T'Wolves, so give him some more time to get adjusted. He did give us a preview, tho. I liked his aggressiveness bringing the ball to the hoop, anything like that. Davis, he should be a little aggressive when he has the ball, not so much coming from him. Games to be determined.

Bibby, what did he do? Sneaking up on us like that. Good thing the Wolves played well enough to beat the Kings team with him.

That Foye for Roy trade is looking pretty good about now, thanks. Good luck down the road on making the playoffs. My team is at least a year away from seriously doing anything.

On Foye's limited playing time, that surprised me too. But it is just one game, and it was a game where the other guys played great. Hudson was probably our MVP last night, and Hassell and Jaric played great too. In those situations I think he has to sit on the bench. If he's not going to help us win games, then he shouldn't be playing much. Had we lost the game it might be something to complain about. But everybody who got big minutes last night got them because they were playing well.

Don't thank us fans, write a thank you letter to Kevin McHale. After all, he made the move.

honestly. i would have rather liked to keep Roy than foye.

Roy is looking extremely polished out there. I got a chance to watch the sonics vs blazers last night and roy runs the floor so well...

I was bashing the pick hard when they made it, but me and a lot of other Blazer fans were wrong about him.

LOL, good time to look over a trade of two rookies.

Not to compare directly to Randy Foye, but Ben Gordon started terribly as a rookie, over several weeks, then won the 6th Man award.

well even if the trade never went down Roy would be in the same situation foye is in now, and randy would probably be getting big minutes on the blazers.
i dont think they are too far apart talent wise, but playing time will make these 2 guys have very different rookie seasons IMO

Cyberwolf

Nice win. Hopefully we can keep the momentum and get off to a fast start.

As for the Roy/Foye stuff, I didn't really understand the trade when it happened, and I still don't. If we were drafting to bring a player along slowly, there were players who were more raw with greater potential. If we were drafting for someone who is ready now then why aren't we playing him? For that matter, if we aren't going to play him while McCants is out then WHEN IS he going to get playing time?

That said, I hope I'm completely wrong and Foye ends up being the perfect pick.
