Soak It In

It's very difficult for our species to live in the present. Whether we're busy regretting the past, basking in nostalgia, or fretting about tomorrow, enjoying a moment in life is a special thing.

Now is the time, fellow Timberwolves fans, for us to stop and smell the roses. We're on a 5-game winning streak (good for longest in the league, as PoorDick pointed out in last night's comments), we're undefeated in 2009, and we're 7-3 in our last 10 games.

John Hollinger's stat-based rankings have the Wolves sitting at #20 this morning.

Today is our day. Resist the urge to think about the draft order. Put the upcoming schedule out of you mind. Today is the day to think about how well the Wolves are playing.

Soak it in.

UPDATE

The numbers from our last 10 games:

Isn't it funny?

I head off to the ancestral home in Minnesota and don’t really pay attention to the NBA at all… And here I get back to my current home in Los Angeles to find this. All I can say is WOW!

No offence but ...

…. could you maybe try not using slang and caps so much, it’s quite difficult for us foreigners to read and I expect the same is true for the other people here.

Also, I think you’d be taken more seriously.

All we have to do is

keep a .65 winning percentage the rest of the way and they’ll be .500 for the season.

the Wolves going 21-25 from here on out, which I’d say wouldn’t be too bad, all things considered. He also has their odds of making the playoffs (where 48-50 wins will probably be required) at 7 out of 1,000.

We’re moving from Hope to Change!
