    The timberwolves always play the magic tough but i expect a magic victory. Hopefully the guys can erase the boston game from their minds and come out with great effort and take care of a bad timberwolves team. And also if SVG is going to continue to start JJ then he has to run some plays for him. JJ is not a defender so you cant put him in the line-up and expect him to contribute if you dont cater to his offensive strenghts which are running off screens and nailing jumpers. When he's hitting shots,his three's within the break start falling too. It's almost as if SVG forgets who he has on the floor when he starts JJ expecting for their not to be a drop off at that position,but there's going to be when the guys in front of JJ were very athletic and would score buckets from outside of the framework of the offense (dunks,lobs etc.,)which isnt JJ's game. To be honest (and i never thought i would say this)his defense has been really good,so getting him going offensively is key.

    Agreed... let's hope Redick can get his offense going starting with this game.
