I missed this. :-) I think you are kidding though.

Interesting article. Some of this isn't new but there were a couple fun tidbits later in 10 more Wolves notes including this one.

"The Wolves have been a below-average defensive team in nine of the last 10 seasons and in 20 of the franchise's 27 seasons in the league. One of those seven years in which they were better than the league average was their inaugural season (1989-90), when Thibodeau was an assistant."

My prediction for the season is 45. I haven't gotten a chance to follow the Wolves much the last few years but try to read these threads for any knowledge that I can get on how things are playing out. This is the first season in awhile that I will try to stay up late to be able to watch as many games as possible.

I am going with 43 wins. I am planning on attending games in Cleveland, Philly and DC for sure....possiblyou MSG and Brooklyn if I can get free tickets (90% sure I am at the top of the list! ) If the Wolves can beat the teams that they should beat at home and steal a couple on the road they squeak into the playoffs as the 8 seed and win 1 game against the Warriors before the inevitable summer vacation starts.

43 wins is an excellent choice. It sounds like you will be getting out to a number of games this year. Good for you - we expect game reports!
