TIMBERWOLVES HANGING ON BY A THREAD

The Minnesota Timberwolves are teetering on becoming a non factor on the remainder of this years NBA season. After losing to the Phoenix Suns on Friday, I was sure that the free fall was just beginning. Then, today, the Minnesota Timberwolves showed some heart and beat a very good Washington Wizards team at the Target Center. The win pulled Kevin Garnett and the Minnesota Timberwolves within two points of the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference.

Speaking of Kevin Garnett, it appears as though he finally has a crack in his armor. He said he was "not happy" by the lack of trades made by the Minnesota Timberwolves front office. All I know is that he isn't the only one. At least he is making 20 some million dollars this year!
