Dunn is a vice defensively He had 5 steals last game and has 2 already in the 1st quarter tonight along with 6 assists And he's staying in front of everyone |

Timberwolves about to start the season 1-4. Currently being blown out by the Thunder. |

I think MANY of us recognized that it would take time to change the losing mentality of that organization. When Thibs got here the Bulls had already tasted winning so his job was easier. The Wolves will be fine. |

The 1-4 record is bad but they have already lost to 4 teams in which they have more talent. 3 of them probably won't make the playoffs. They are being crushed in 3rd quarters not so coincidentally. Teams are making adjustments and absolutely killing them. |

Yea and Thibs will make adjustments too They'll be fine While I think Dunn is likely the better option than Rubio, they're still switching starting point guards 2 games into the season too No concern here |

The Wolves have been in every game except one while Hoiberg's losing to Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah (at home), who together probably add up to one healthy body and one brain. Wolves got this. |

Every game except one? They lost to the Grizzlies Kings Nuggets Thunder. Three of the teams are unlikely to make the playoffs. The Knicks are better than any of those teams minus the Thunder and they probably will be better than them by season's end. Why we are in the excuse making game Rose and Noah missed an entire training camp. The Bulls have lost to 3 teams that will make the playoffs with 2 of them predicted by many to be top 4 in the conference. |

Yes they got blown out once and lost by five points or less against everyone else. The west is tougher than the east and the Knicks suck. |

Why are we even arguing about this 1 week into the season? All of these teams will play differently in the coming months and years. |

Was there any protest when people were calling for Hoiberg to be fired during the preseason last yr. Also the fact they have lost to teams that aren't that good should be cause for concern. Also what exactly does playing better constitute? If Thibs wins less than 35 games it should be viewed as a disappointment by (Thibs philes). That is quite unbecoming for a coach billed as the 2nd best in the league. He also is coaching a talent laden team. |

35 will be a disappointment if everyone is healthy. 500 for a young team with no playoff experience in the vastly superior west is a win. Hoiberg should still be fired - he is Vinny del Negro reincarnated. |

The West has 2 teams that are really good and it's debatable if either is better than Cleveland. The TWOLVES have already lost to 3 teams that are unlikely to make the playoffs. They are,being manhandled coming out for the 3rd quarter. They lost to a Grizzlies team with a rookie coach in his first game. They also started 3 guys that will likely be working at their local Steak and Shake in 2 years. |
