Corey Brewer SF Danny Granger
Kevin Love PF Troy Murphy
Al Jefferson C Jeff Foster
(17-19) 95
vs. 
81 (11-23)
Ramon Sessions gave the Wolves a huge spark off the bench in the Wolves win, scoring 17 points in 24 minutes of play.
Player Of The Game:
Al Jefferson
Quote Of The Game:
"Our guys are playing with a lot of energy right now. 4 straight wins with a potential to earn our 5th straight tomorrow night against a Bulls team that has made some changes and appears to be heating up a bit. I don't think anyone would've picked us to be sitting at .500, or even close to it for that matter, at around the halfway point of the season." - Wolves GM David Kahn

.500 Mark Eludes Wolves Yet Again After High Scoring Affair In Chi-Town
Starting Lineups:
Jonny Flynn PG Derrick Rose
Wayne Ellington SG John Salmons
Corey Brewer SF Luol Deng
Kevin Love PF Tyrus Thomas
Al Jefferson C Brad Miller
(18-19) 122 @ 126 (12-22)
Jonny Flynn's layup that would've tied the game up at 124 in the final seconds of regulation would end up being swatted back by Brad Miller.
Player Of The Game:
Derrick Rose
Quote Of The Game:
"We did a lot of good things tonight. Drew contact, got to the line and converted there. We did one thing really bad though...keep a hand in their face. The fact that they shot close to 60% from the field on us goes to show you just how lax our D was tonight. We've had some good defensive showings in our recent games and it looked like we got complacent. You can't underestimate this Bulls team. They may be 12-22 but they are 7-3 in their last 10 after bringing in Rashad (Mccants) and Julius (Wright). I wouldn't be surprised to see them back in the playoff picture later in the season." - Wolves Head Coach Kurt Rambis

Hey mike, you better start losing, cuz if the Wolves finish between 10th pick to 30th pick, my Clippers get it ;)
1984 Record: 44-38 (9th in west)
1985 Record: 42-40 (7th in west; 1st round exit)
1986 Record: 51-31 (3rd in west; swept in finals)
The Grizzlies theme this season should be : "This Season, We're Doing It For The Lulz"Comment

Damn Rose had 19 assists! That's the 60% you were talking about in my chise lol
Els, Flynn and Jeff all had good games though....you gotta be pretty excited about having such a nice trio of young guysComment

Explain to me how I can shut down Danny Granger and then Deng kick my ass.
2 steals. lol. Typo.
Fixed the double post. That was weird.
He was dishing and they were hitting. Had they not been connecting like they had, his assists would not have been that high. It was a tough game.
Yep, that's why I chose this team. Hopefully take this youth/team and turn it into a winner sometime down the road.

Timberwolves Top Plays (Week of Jan. 3 - Jan. 9)
#4 - Sergio Rodriguez to Corey Brewer for the alley-oop
#3 - Brewer drives the lane and finishes strong for the hoop and the harm
#2 - Brewer blocks a Stephen Jackson 3 and takes it back for a dunk in the final minute of regulation
#1 - Jonny Flynn has time to bring it around, balance his checkbook and finish at the rim in a sea of Pacer blue
