Wolves Updates 11/13

No Roy/Foye matchup at the Target Center anytime soon. Steve Aschburner says Brandon Roy's heel injury will keep him out of Tuesday's game against Portland.


Also from Aschburner:
In the past three games, the Wolves have trailed after the first quarter each night, by an average of 6.3 points. That means the starters haven't been getting the job done.


Sam Smith lists another possible Garnett trade scenario and comments on the loss to Orlando:
The Timberwolves are already the mess that was predicted and reportedly were ripped by lame-duck coach Dwane Casey and Garnett after another uninspired home loss, this time to Orlando on Saturday. Grant Hill, who has been healthy and terrific this season, was rested as a precaution by the Magic. It reminded me of a few years ago here when teams would rest their best players against the Bulls because they could beat them with the rest. Amazingly, this appears to be what teams think of Garnett's team.


Still Listen To Gangsta Music has pics of some new NBA/Adidas shoes due out next spring.


McHale's hometown has got his back. The Hibbing Daily Tribune thinks that he'll "get it turned around and the Wolves will get back respectability once again."
