This season is a good demonstration of why KG should never be mentioned in the same breathe as Tim Duncan.
Warriors start the 4th quarter 16-2 and are up on Minny 84-75, at the Target Center.
Looks like the status quo is back in Minnesota.

Sequ get a life you're gay forum.
why do you have to insult our only gay poster, give you a hint, it's not sequ.
Unbelieveable.
I can't understand why Minnesota did not make any moves before the deadline, they needed to make them more than anyone, and how can you replace a decent coach with a guy that's never coached? An assistant should have stepped up or they should have quickly hired a replacement....
And Kevin Garnett is the ing truth, I don't put any of this on him and if you do you don't know ....

NUFF SAID
Meh, Shareef Abdur Rahim had some nice numbers for Lotto teams too. To not put ANY of this on KG is short sighted.
I think they have talent and just need a good coach and Flip was it.
off PM5K.
If KG were even a "Half Truth", he wouldn't be "leading" his team to a .500 record. Leadership/franchise player my ass, he's a damn joke.
amen to that!

Mavs are getting whipped pretty bad too... Bizarro Night in the NBA. Glad the Spurs didn't catch the bug.
He's coasting this year, and just dropping numbers on his raw talent alone. Nowhere to be seen this year is the ferocious point of their zone defense. He's playing Mavs-style defense this year: save your energy and then go score. That won't get it done as a franchise player. I know they have other problems, but as THE MAN, it's his responsibility to step UP, and set the tone.And Kevin Garnett is the ing truth, I don't put any of this on him and if you do you don't know ....
Yer dumb.
yea agreed. as the old saying goes, rolls down Hill. In that franchise KG is the top of that Hill.
among the top players of today, there's ONLY two who had proven they can make a difference to any team or any group of players & that's Duncan & ShaQ
Duncan w/ almost diff. backups each year but the Spurs are always on top of the WC, if not won a le. Let it be AJ, Daniels, or TP.
Shaq-w/ Lakers 3 rings, w/ Miami, now they are on top of EC.
KG has proven nothing. Minny are still outside the magic 8 of the WC, & that's scary.
a lot of those they call "prized possessions" get traded this year :
TMac to Houston-no major impact
Shaq to Miami
Vinsanity to NJersey-no major impact
CWebber to Philly-just won 1 game since the major trade
who do you think is next?
how about KG? shld his team trade him next season? I think KG would fit in in LA or maybe, NY(Marbury, watch out).
I can see firing Flip Saunders made alot of difference.
Hey Mchale, your problem aint Flip, its Sprewell, Cassell, Hudson.....
Its peanut head galore Mchale, and your main man is a total chicken .
You're right, what was I thinking? It's the sign of a true MVP player when he can have his team below .500 after the All-Star break.Yer dumb.
Good call on that one.
Hey, why don't we trade Sprewel for Manu?

They won 2 series last year.
Minn has been horrible at home with a 16-14 record.
They have been great on the road against Western playoff teams, but at home, their fans have seen poor play all year long. I think it all started with Cassell and Sprewell's whining about money in the preseason, their teammates knew that their so-called leaders were mainly looking out for #1, instead of the unit.
This is rediculous. Come on guys, its obvious KG has been playing with a bad leg. Jim, you have Leaguepass, don't you? You've obviously seen that. Just jumping for a simple rebound sometimes his knee buckles on him coming down. He ain't right.
Flip was and always will be a horrible coach. In a league full of overpaid babies you need a guardian and he wasn't one of them. I'm much rather see Mo Cheeks than Saunders. Theres a reason they had to pull him out of the CBA. I was vactioning when the trade deadline passed. Straining my neck trying to hear what deals the wolves had did. Searching the back pages of USA today trying to find the 12 trade done. Nope, I was stratching my head too. Surely Baron Davis could have been had for some sort of deal?
Sammy was quoted earlier, before Flip was fired as saying something to the extent of last year it was the big three freelancing their plays and thats why they did so well (to his credit, he's right, it was him pulling up midranges on breaks and secondary breaks, not set plays) and to just allow them time to get into their own rythym again. I think alot of people got disgusted by that comment thinking our coach should be ruling with an iron fist.
I have stopped watching Minn play lately, they are no longer a threat to the Spurs. I watched them all of last year, rooting for them to lose, but this year, I watch Phoenix, Washington, Seattle and Dallas mainly.
I believe you about KG. It is not his fault that this team is under achieving, KG is a great player, but you need more than one player to win.
