The Wolves are in Memphis tonight to attempt to start another winning streak. The Grizzlies, who are 9-27, are trying to get back on track now that Pau Gasol has returned. Although this Memphis team has a bad record, they are playing much better as of late and the Wolves should not overlook this team.
Minnesota is coming off a loss Wednesday against the Clippers and one of the keys to this season will be how they can bounce back from a loss like that, with Garnett missing the potential game-winning shot, Randy Foye and Mike James both playing badly and Coach Casey’s team not having much fire to end their home stand. They need to be careful because with a loss, Minnesota will drop back to the 0.500 mark.
Against a team such as Memphis, the Wolves need to come out with an edge to them and make a strong push immediately. If Minnesota can get a decent early lead, they can try to sneak out of Memphis with a relatively easy win before returning home tomorrow to play Jason Kidd, Vince Carter, Richard Jefferson and the New Jersey Nets.
The Wolves have been playing better as of late, however it would be quite disappointing to come back home with a 0.500 record.
