Minnesota Sports Forum

I think Houston is pretty well built around Howard and the still have Asik either as a player or as an asset. Harden is a stud Lin is a shooting PG and Parsons can shoot too. Houston is similar to what Dwight had in Orlando but Harden is way more talented than any guy he played with there.

Good point about GS although if they can be healthy its a pretty loaded lineup and the did a decent job of replaving Landry and Jack with worthwhile bench guys. Bogut Lee and Curry are guys that have significant injury issues so that's a big worry for that team.

If we had to play the Warriors in a playoff series, I'd feel really confident in Minnesota's chances. Reason number one: Ricky would make Steph look stupid.

Edit: Sarcasm?

Agree with Camden that Golden State is overrated. Don't underestimate what they lost when Jack and Landry left. Jack's stats don't tell the complete story of what he meant to last year's team. Most games that I watched he was their go to guy at the end of games...absolute ice water running through his veins. I love Iggy's athleticism, but does anyone think he's a good option at the end of games?

Giving this thread a bump from 2013 back when JD Vikes started it. JD if you're out there it's been seven years strong. Oh i and i like the thread title.

Extremely optimistic but go wolves.

I still hate the Warriors.

What the hell is this? Next thing you know someone's going to dig up my topic on the ESPN message boards proclaiming Shabazz Muhammad to be a lock for future All-Star.

Was this a place for sarcasm? Oops

Anyone have LST's contact info by any chance? I'd love to read his takes again. He's one of the OG's of this board.

Sorry Bloop. I wanted to give us a sense of optimism from our first day on this site.
