Minnesota Timberwolves vs. San Antonio Spurs: 1/2/12

1st Quarter: The Wolves will face a tough draw in the San Antonio Spurs. The Spurs immediately jumped out to a 7-0 lead, but the Timberwolves quickly came back to 13-11 lead. The Spurs are a very dangerous shooting team and don't make to many mistakes. They will make the Wolves scrap and bang for this game. Duncan is off to a scorching start making 4-4 on FG. Darko just looks really out of it. The Spurs announcers are currently paying their respects to the remarkable progress and future potential that the Wolves have. Kevin Love is just an absolute monster. He's only missed one shot, and it was a deep three.

2nd Quarter: The Spurs are trying to pressure Rubio in order to force the Wolves to get another ballhandler. Kevin Love is continuing his sweet-shooting ways. Wayne Ellington looks very aggressive, but sometimes is taking harder shots than what we could possibly have. This is the team that most fans have dreamed of for years. All the length and athleticism has finally been harnessed by Adelman and given to Rubio. This is about as perfect an offense as you can see the Wolves playing. The Spurs are still staying in the game due the fact that they are shooting nearly as good as the TWolves. Ginobili seems to have injured his hand pretty bad. Wes Johnson is really trying to jumpstart his season with a big game so far. However, the Spurs just keep hanging with them. The Spurs are only down 65-59.

3rd Quarter: The Timberwolves will try to pick up where they left off against one of the best 3rd quarter teams. The passing is still very good. Beasley looks like his hand is hampering him, but is trying to fight through it. The Spurs are still conniving their way into points, with good drives and open 3 pointers. The  Wolves then went on a 7-0 tear and stretched the lead to 85-68. The Wolves starters are all in double figures. The Wolves are playing a little sloppy right now and the lead is down to 13.  The Timberwolves are just absolutely shellacking the Spurs.

4th Quarter: I literally think that the Timberwolves could beat the Spurs with 4 players. The Wolves are just getting everything to go in. The Spurs seem to be trying very hard but, nothing is working with them. They are definitely pressuring the ball very well, and forced Adelman to call a timeout. The Timberwolves are getting really unlucky and the Spurs have come within 10 points. The Wolves will have to do their best to hold up the Spurs, especially once Tim Duncan comes back in. The Spurs just can't get a shot to fall, especially TJ Ford and DeJuan Blair. You have to question why Adelman hasn't subbed out Love and some of the other starters. The Wolves closed out well against them.
