Minnesota Fans are depressed from Garnett Leaving!

[Andy Jick]

how thrilled would you be to watch that crap play every night?

sad to say, but mchale has ran that franchise into the ground.

i thought it was interesting how gorman and marshall were talking about kevin love being more suited for the eastern conference.  i agree...mchale made a dumb move trading for that guy.  i realize he got mike miller, but love is not all that good and he's not being used correctly.

i don't care how sad their fans are...it's made us awfully happy!

if we are not bandwagon fans, which i am certainly not, then we would understand how watching that crap feels like. we were once like that.

I don't exactly see why people in Minnesota miss KG. He was never going to win a championship there. If Paul Pierce was traded away in the 07 offseason would we miss him. Hell No! We would just look at our proteges.

At least the Celtics got 16 banners prior last season, and they can talk about tradition (not that I'm saying Celtics fans won't miss PP), but KG is the single good thing that has ever happened to the franchise, and that guy has heart and he flat out will do anything to try win(not that I'm saying PP does not), wolves fans watching KG over the last 10+ years is like parents watching their kids grow up.

TP for your comments,i see it the same way.KG went their right out HS and they watched him over the years mature not only as a bp but as a boy who matured into a man.The fans had felt he would be bringing that "gold ball" to Minny someday once he grew up,not helping another franchise bring it home.

thats wrong
i easily miss pierce as i miss delonte AJ
i would miss pierce as i miss chauncey and Joe johnson
a good bkb player will ever be missed in a team
no thing of championships there

This is 100% correct, and was a key point in my Fanpost:

I like Minnesota and all from what I have seen of it - but honestly Walker got a bigger cheer when he returned then KG did. I am not sure they are all that depressed.
