I was at the game. Let me first say MN will soon be a good team.
However, I’ve never been to a more pathetic game. When I go to a road game I want to fear for my life when I yell. Here, people were all nice and only had good comments about the Spurs. It was also maybe 1/4th full. Also, worst music and PA of all time.

We got hosed...
Towards the end of either regulation or the 1st overtime, I can’t rember, but in a span of 1 minute, we got totally hosed on 3 consecutive calls. If one of them goes our way we probably win. First Love tips the ball in and gets fouled in the process. The foul was called, but the basket did not count. If he was in fact fouled, which IN FACT the refs called, then the hoop should have counted since he was fouled during the tip. Makes no sense. A few seconds later Foye tries to drive the baseline and gets called for traveling even though he kept his pivot foot. What is this, high school girls basketball reffing? And to top it off the very next possession they feed Duncan down low, he takes one dribble, picks up the ball, then proceeds to start another dribbling sequence that allowed him to score. Double dribble, hello??? Even the coaches on the bench went nuts. Anyways, I had to get that off my chest. We should have won. What a great game. I am seeing some very nice things (but some very disturbing ones as well).

I never like to say...
…that the reffing cost them the game, but it was bad down the stretch. The double dribble call was especially bad and Duncan was at his whining worst and the refs bought into it.

Yeah...
I believe I heard them playing Poison last night. What is this, Treasure Island Casino? And I’ve already ranted about the overzealous Howling.

The only thing I found pathetic about the game was the number of fans who left, because it went to OT, and again, because it went to Double OT. That was kind of embarrassing.

It looked noticable on tv
