Wolves Over The Weekend
On Friday, Garnett reached 61st on the NBA's all time scoring list with 17,337 points, one point ahead of McHale."Good; I can talk some (trash) to him," Garnett said. "That's probably the reason he's not returning my phone calls. It makes a lot of sense."
Mad Dog on his lack of playing time:
"I guess my expectations are always the same — be ready when your name is called," Madsen said. "I feel like, in that aspect, I've been 100 percent successful. When the coach has called my name, I've been ready, and I've gone in there and done my job. That's my role, and I embrace it."
"Mark Madsen's been a pro," Casey said. "He plays hard every day in practice. He knows his role."
First-year Timberwolves coach Dwane Casey, asked how he is doing these days with his faltering team: "I'm hanging tough. The alternative is six feet under, and I'm not ready for that."
