KG is going to come to the scorer's table, grab the chalk, the applause will start, he'll do the Hulk Hogan hand gesture (getting louder) and then he'll rip off his Nets jersey and put on his Wolves jersey!

I think your emoticon is winking there, right Tim? Even though the Wolves are a big favorite, it has to be easy to get up for the Nets. 20 point win!!!

This SHOULD be an easy win for us. If we fuck this up, I'm done for the year.

Sound like a real fan there Cam. You rip on others when they are critical of the team starting out the season, but as soon as things take a downturn you're ready to jump ship. Does the word Bandwagon ring a bell.

Done for the year in making excuses for them. I said pre-season we're a 50 win team. Losing to the Nets at less than full strength isn't something a 50-win team would do. Also, pretty hard to be a bandwagon fan when that usually comes with some sort of success and this franchise hasn't shown that for a decade. Ripping on people pre-season for being critical of a product they hadn't seen play before is fine in my opinion. Losing to a weak Nets team means that I was wrong in my prediction and I'm done for the year in backing it up.

Does the word jackass ring a bell to you?

Does the word backtracking ring a bell? Nice try buddy.

Many of us know what the weaknesses of the team were over the last couple of seasons, and also realized that a lot of that wasn't addressed in the off season. You were really talking some shit, when they came out of the gate hot, but now all of a sudden you're quitting. That sounds like a bandwagon fan to me.

Lol sjm, you continue to have your head up your ass. Three-point shooting wasn't addressed? Defensive upgrades at the wings weren't addressed? We're a middle of the pack three-point shooting team as opposed to last year's bottom ranking. We're a top-10 team in guarding the three-point line as opposed to last year's bottom-10 ranking. Areas of weakness were addressed even if you blindly say otherwise.

How would it be justified if I talked shit as we're losing games we shouldn't lose? It wouldn't be. Beating OKC how we did. Beating the Knicks at the Garden how we did. Wins like that early are worthy of some praise. Losing to Cleveland, Denver and Washington how we did aren't "good" losses. I don't have to explain that to you. You're at the very least smart enough to realize that. As we hit a cool spell, I hit a cool spell with my praise. See the pattern? That's every fan of every team in every sport.

Get a grip, sjm.

Uh, oh, looks like we got a cat fight here.

We added Martin and Brewer. One good, one bad defensively. Not really a big upgrade. The reason we are in the middle has a lot to do with Love being healthy and taking a lot of the three's. Defensively, Brewer isn't any better than AK was, and Martin isn't here for his D. Maybe we should play more than 10 teams before we start looking at our ranking defensively.

OKC didn't have one of their two stars in Westbrook. They are a completely different team with him, than without him. The Knicks look like one of the worst teams in the EC so far this season, so I don't see how either win is that big of a deal.

You didn't hit a cool spell, you stated that you were done for the season if they lost tonight. Don't try denying it, it is there for everyone to see, unless you change it.

I've lost the magic, markkbu...that's why I gave up gambling!

I knew Brooklyn was bad...I just didn't know they were that bad! I didn't even think the Wolves brought their A game, but they didn't need to. Hopefully they were saving it for tomorrow!

Brooklyn was embarrassing. I only saw that 1st quarter. But that was not NBA quality. When Audray Blatche is your most energetic and arguably best player... you're fucked.
