A Rebuild In Progress

[RockSteady]

Jonny played in the Big East, for Syracuse... he should used to the refs fucking us :D

He'll get it together, just keep him on the court.

[Lupe]

fucking clippers

15 shots is a big load for a rookie PG to handle when he has to distribute as well. I'd take some pressure off him and start feeding it in to Al J/Love a little more.

I've made Brandon Jennings successful by only having him take open shots or drives to the hoop.

[mfbmike]

Flynn will pick it up - slumps happen to the best of them

Good work again Mike, enjoying this. Hope you can touch .500 by halfway and then who knows!

Sure hope so. Thanks again bud.

25 games in, nah I agree with Flynn, he didn't hit a wall yet, just a bad stretch of shooting......defensively the Wolves just got worse as the game went on

That 67 minute game against Uconn was classic....as a Cuse fan, that game gave me a few grey hair hairs

I didn't get to see that game but I could just imagine. lol.

tough loss allowing 67 points in the 2nd half

Yeah, it was pretty brutal. Couldn't find any answers. Lot of buckets inside and if I managed to make them miss, I'd end getting called for fouls.

good ish mike

im taking a break from chising tryin to get life priorities straight

Do what you gotta do man.

fucking clippers

Tell me about it.

After the UCONN game, I don't think Flynn gets fatigued.

15 shots is a big load for a rookie PG to handle when he has to distribute as well. I'd take some pressure off him and start feeding it in to Al J/Love a little more.

I've made Brandon Jennings successful by only having him take open shots or drives to the hoop.

Good idea. This whole "balanced" scoring attack coming back to bite me in the ass. I really should just give the ball to Al, and let him work his magic. Even Kevin is pretty capable of finding a way to score if I get him the ball in the paint. Once the defense starts putting extra pressure on those 2, dish it out for open looks.

I'll get the Kings game in tonight.

It's official, to keep up with Mike you need the following:

Plenty of Caffeine
No Sleep
Controller glued to your hand.

Loving it Mike, great read with the Flynn article. He's a cocky sumbitch.

Should be here soon since mike is playing 2k right now. Fucking game whore.

Wolves Survive Martin's 46 To Squeeze By Kings And Even Up Season Series

Starting Lineups:
Jonny Flynn PG Antonio Daniels
Ramon Sessions SG Tyreke Evans
Corey Brewer SF Kevin Martin
Kevin Love PF Jason Thompson
Al Jefferson C Spencer Hawes

(11-15) 118 vs. 115 (14-10)


Kevin Martin exploited the matchup with the shorter Ramon Sessions on his way to a game high 46 points.



Player Of The Game:

Al Jefferson

Quote Of The Game:
"We went back to what worked for us early in the season. Pound it inside to Kevin and Al and let them work their magic. They took advantage of the Kings weak interior D which eventually opened things up for us on the perimeter. Not to mention, they dominated the glass. When we play to our strengths like that, we put ourselves in a much better position to win games." - Jonny Flynn

Next Game:

[SuperNova854]

The wolves are like 8-0 in my chise. Jefferson is avg 30 and 12

[RockSteady]

You must have played well to counter Martin's 46.. nice win.

[Yawkey Way]

oh shit you have my celtics coming up next


good luck..hope it's a doozy

[mfbmike]

uh oh. kings again.......

Fucking Kevin Martin. Sessions can't guard that guy for shit. More on that in a bit.

lol, I've only played 27 games. Haven't you played about the same? LC and CB4 are about as far in as well iirc. Glad you're enjoying it though. :D

Tough loss to the Clippers.

I like the article about Jonny a lot, I'd agree with Len, take a few less shots with him, things will start to open back up.

Appeared to work in this last game. I was so happy his shots were going down for once. Knocked down 3 longballs as wall.

Hey...how do you get so may fouls called on you? Should I turn something up? Because we're only averaging 11.3 a game..and like around 20 is average I think.

My foul settings (sliders) are in my sliders thread. If you are already using those settings, perhaps you gotta take it to the rim more. lol.

flynn gotta get his stuff togetherrrr...

Appeared to do so last game. It's all good. Just growing pains. I've been very pleased with his performance overall this year and since I've inserted him into the starting lineup.

This is nice chise man. Keep it up.

Thanks man. Welcome aboard. :D

Al doing work, you've got a great record, considering your using the Wolves.

lol, Thanks. They have potential to be halfway decent this year but considering factors that really don't transfer into the video game world, they probably won't do as well as I am. Not to say I am doing incredibly well or anything.

The wolves are like 8-0 in my chise. Jefferson is avg 30 and 12

No shit. I'm surprised teams like the Nets and Kings are doing as well as they are in here so far.

Funny the two teams I've sent players too in that trade earlier this month (Nets,Kings) are doing well.

You must have played well to counter Martin's 46.. nice win.

Killed em on the glass and inside. Hawes can't stop Al.

oh shit you have my celtics coming up next


good luck..hope it's a doozy

Last time the Celtics came to town, KG reminded Minny just how good he was. Heading up to the TD for this upcoming one. We'll see what happens. lol.

[mfbmike]

tough loss but good game tho...kmartin is a beast tho....

Dayum Kmart is almost as hard to stop as Granger. He dropped near 40 on me.

Yeah he definitely is. Especially hard to contain when a point guard in Sessions is covering him for a majority of the game. lol.

His quick release is so hard to predict. Makes it especially hard to get a hand in his face.
