From Sid Hartman:
Kevin McHale, vice president of the Timberwolves, said, "We
should be much better. I think last year we went through a growth
period trying to figure out what we had here. We had a bunch of new
players — but as much as that, I think [Randy] Foye
being hurt for the first half of the season really put us back. I think
after Randy came back, we were 17-21 or something like that coming down
the stretch. For a lot of these guys, familiarity is going to make us
much, much better." Rob Moor, chief executive officer of the
Timberwolve, said he is encouraged by the interest in the Wolves. "I
think fans are supporting us right now. They’re showing that they want
to see this new team, this young team." New Timberwolf Mike Miller said he believes Gophers coach Tubby Smith recruited an outstanding player in Colton Iverson of Yankton, S.D.

The city of Minneapolis is shelling out $1 million this summer to improve the acoustics at Target Center. This is a boon for Timberwolves fans, whose boos will have a richer, deeper resonance than ever before.
