Awhile back on the Timberwolves web site the Timberwolves put up a free agent poll that read:
Which Wolves restricted free agent is the top priority?
Ryan Gomes
Sebastian Telfair
Craig Smith
Kirk Snyder
This seems a bit like a no brainer to me, I voted for Ryan Gomes. After you vote, you get to see the results – here is what it said:
Ryan Gomes 56%
Sebastian Telfair 21%
Craig Smith 18%
Kirk Snyder 5%
Total Responses: 1166
That means that 58 people voted for Kirk Snyder…seriously? Perhaps they just randomly chose a name they liked? What would be the explanation for 58 people to choose Kirk Snyder over any of the other three? Timberwolves fans, I just shake my head in confusion.

Timberwolves roster ever changing
The Minnesota Timberwolves roster is sure to look different next year. There are five players that are eligible as free agents (in alphabetical order by last name):
> Ryan Gomes
> Chris Richard
> Craig Smith
> Kirk Snyder
> Sebastian Telfair
They are all eligible to negotiate through their agents with every NBA team starting July 1. Don’t forget, the Wolves have the right to match any offer made to any of the five players and retain their rights, but I don’t see a few of these guys coming back.
I am guessing that Craig Smith won’t be back because he doesn’t seem to jive real well with Al Jefferson and every Timberwolves fan knows that A.J. is the man on the team and we need to build a team around him. I am also willing to bet we let Kirk Snyder go as well. I am hoping the team will sign Ryan Gomes, hopefully he won’t be too expensive. I would also like to see a deal for Sebastian Telfair. I am indifferent to Chris Richard. It will be an interesting summer for the NBA Timberwolves, that’s for sure.

Timberwolves win on road, have another chance at winning streak
The biggest news in Timberwolves land is that the team won Monday afternoon. On the road. Truly, this is a rare occurrence this season. The Minnesota Timberwolves earned only their second road victory this season in a matchup with the Golden State Warriors. It was hard fought, well-deserved and a long time in the coming. The Wolves beat the Warriors 109-108.
Ryan Gomes stepped into a leadership role that could bode greater activity from the gifted young scorer. He scored 35 points on 11-15 shooting from the field and 11-12 shooting from the line. I think Gomes has to keep shooting while not worrying if he is off the mark for stretches at a time. He has more of a scorer’s body than Rashad McCants, and I would rather see Gomes shooting than McCants. Al Jefferson also contributed big down the stretch, scoring 15 of his 21 points in the second half. The Timberwolves host the Phoenix Suns at the Target Center tonight and go for that elusive winning streak yet again. Cheap Timberwolves tickets are everywhere. It’s a perfect time to see a Timberwolves game.
