Even the Bulls kind of stood there
for a split second afterward, until they realized that LBJ wasn’t going to get the call. The ball went out of bounds, and the refs could have split the baby and given the Cavs the ball with .2 seconds left. But they reviewed it for what seemed like 2 1/2 hours, and ruled LBJ touched it last. So Bulls ball, and they won.

I'll never understand Wolves fans obsession with Aldrich
Is it because he’s from Minnesota? Because no one watched any college games except the final four? There are big men who have a lot more to offer and fit much better with the team than Aldrich. Cole is just a 7 foot version of Love….nothing he really offers that we don’t already have.
If we want to gun for someone in the draft, it should be Derrick Favors or Evan Turner.

A 7 ft version of Love sounds awesome!

It's only awesome if we trade Love or Jefferson first
Because just having two of those players is already incredibly redundant. Having three of them? Pure overkill.
Plus, it’d be nice to have at least one big man who can really run the floor…
Chris Bosh, anyone?
by Oceanary on Nov 6, 2009 10:16 PM CST up reply actions 0 recs
A seven foot version of Love would be perfect
As to the obsession, I think it is pretty simple. Wolves have been in existence since 1989. If George Mikan had come out of retirement to play one game for that team he might be the best center in Wolves history.

Similar doubts
I’m done being fixated over specific players in the draft in November of the previous year. Derrick Rose, Ricky Blonde…. Things happen or they don’t.

by feral on Nov 7, 2009 8:14 AM CST up reply actions 0 recs
I don’t have an obsession by any means as I’d rather have Evan Turner, but Aldrich will be very solid. He’s very coordinated and decently athletic for a guy with that size and length. Solid rebounder, good shot-blocker and he has a decent all-around offensive game with some rudimentary post moves and the makings of a good jumper. He’d be the best true C the team’s ever had the second he stepped on the floor.
I wouldn’t take him over Turner, but if the other good choices are off the board I think it’s good to know there’s another guy who’d be a great fit out there. It just makes the draft deeper.
When I get sad, I stop being sad and be awesome instead. True story.

can someone tell me
if Flynn was allowed to run pick & roll tonight?
or why the hell we don’t pair Sessions & Flynn ever? what’s the harm when down big? See if it works.

We’re 1-5 and just lost to a terrible Bucks team by 15 at home. Stay the Course I say
