On Second Thought... Hold the Mayo. I'm Feelin' the Love.

By the time I went to bed on the night of the NBA Draft, I had sufficiently talked myself into liking O.J. Mayo as the newest Timberwolf. I had explained away all of my pre-draft concerns about O.J's prima-donna attitude (He's misunderstood, he's just got a bad reputation), the way he'd fit into a lineup already full of young, offensive-minded combo guards (him and Foye can both run the offense and shoot so well, it will work itself out), and the fact that, short of making it to the championship, there is no effin' way he would come back to a small market team in the coldest state in America (he told McHale he would love to play for Minnesota!).

8-35.. but there's hope.

Welcome to Timberwolves Talk, where we take pride in following the NBA's worst team.

I'll just say it: The Wolves have sucked this year. Any time it takes a team 50 days to win it's first three games, you know there are some issues to be addressed.

For most of the season, the Wolves have seemed to be less poised in the fourth quarter than... I can't even think of an analogy. They've gone into the fourth with a lead and come out with nothin' more times than I'd like to remember.
