To paraphrase Colonel Nathan R. Jessep:
You fuckin' people. You have no idea how to run a basketball franchise. All you did was weaken a city today, KG. That's all you did. You put future ticket sales in danger. Sweet dreams, son.
Kevin Garnett hit a last-second shot to beat the Trailblazers on Sunday night. That's not a good thing. My interest in the Timberpuppies has waned considerably in recent years, but I follow them enough to know they shouldn't be winning right now.
If I'm reading the ESPN page correctly, the Wolves are currently tied for the 10th-worst record in the NBA, and Garnett's crew has 13 games remaining in the regular season. If the Wolves end up with a top-10 pick in the 2007 draft, they keep the selection. If the Wolves pick 11th or higher, they will hand the selection to the L.A. Clippers. Scouts believe the 2007 draft will be one of the best in years - beginning (potentially) with a number of studs people have been recently watching in the NCAA tournament. Think Kevin Durant, Greg Oden, Julian Wright, Al Horford, Brandan Wright, Joakim Noah, Jeff Green, Roy Hibbert, Acie Law, Corey Brewer...
If the Wolves are ever going to succeed again in the Garnett era, we want them on that pick. We need them at that pick.
