Game Report- Wolves at Knicks

[Eitan]

The Wolves are 3-0, and they haven't played a cupcake yet.

This ^^^^ so much! There isn't a hallow victory in the bunch. Most of our complaints about not putting their foot down with a lead is pure BS, NBA teams makes runs, then go cold, the good ones find a way to finish and the Wolves are showing signs of being one of the good teams!

TheSp, Well said!

Tonight's a test. If we can win a game like tonight and Wednesday, I think things get real.

A win tonight would be huge. But win or lose, the Wolve' 3-0 start is the real deal. As Q pointed out, not a cupcake among the three teams we beat. Tonight will test our depth. At least two or three of the following need to step up in a big way tonight: JJ, Shved, Williams, Dieng, and/or Cunningham. I'm looking for a big game from Cunningham tonight. Otherwise, I feel a let-down coming on.

You guys keep lamenting over all our problems. I've got a 4th straight win to go watch! :)

I couldn't agree more Tim. Before the season started, people complained about letting AK go. Now he is at a team where he has played 23 minutes this season. (corey has played more than that every game this year) People complained about picking up Corey's and his defense. We can't really complain about that anymore, since that is obviously wrong. Complained about Flip's lack of vision for the team. We can't really complain about that right now. Complained about making a bad draft pick, now we can see that there weren't that many good options out there. Lots of different complaints about Adelman. Intersperse lots of complaining about D-Will's playing time. And then complaining about how bad the team defense is.

Now it looks like we are complaining about how bad our bench players are. At some point, this has to stop. Before too long we may be complaining about poor Hummel at the end of the bench and that he doesn't rest his elbows on his knees correctly. Under Kahn, 4 of those bench players STARTED. We even got rid numerous of the people started at one point or another last year (Roy, Luke, Howard, Stiemsma, Gelly, Lee) That is how bad our team was until Flip balanced the team and added depth. While some people are complaining about how little PT D-Will gets, others are talking about what a terrible backup he is.

Is it that people just don't want to eat crow because they would have to admit that their cautionary tails were wrong? Or is this board just filled with a bunch of morbid sad sacks? Or does your skill set limit you to the ability to point out flaws (ie....are you typical mid-level managers)?

We are currently one of the 4 undefeated teams in basketball. Will that last all season? Of course not. We have beat 3 pretty good teams. Should we win tonight, we will have matched the longest winning streak under the Kahn area. Flip has put this team in a situation where, in there first 4 games, we can match the longest winning streak of the last four years.

When a team is playing well, people with good basketball minds can identify what they are doing correctly also.
