way. On the other hand, whenever Violet Palmer refs a game, things get
ugly for the Wolves, even though she seemed fairly subdued for a trip to
Minneapolis. (I don't know if she had a codependent relationship with a
werewolf that ended badly, but she typically calls more fouls on the
Wolves from the far side of the court than the rest of her crew combined.)
The young Wolves still struggle with transition defense and taking care
of the ball, and gave up a lot of points to the Sonics off of turnovers.
I really didn't want to lose to the Sonics especially with ex-Wolf
Wally Szczerbiak on the floor. Unfortunately nobody really stepped up
to help out Al Jefferson in this game, until late in the game Rashad
McCants got out of his shooting funk and started scoring some points...
still, the Wolves need a third scorer. On the plus side, Corey Brewer
continues to improve offensively, and in addition to three blocks scored
in double digits for the first time last night, while our other Florida
rookie Chris Richard (the guy with cornrows who looks like he bench
presses cars in the garage for exercise) had his best game ever in a
Wolves uniform, scoring in double figures as well. And tonight they
have a chance to bounce back against Yi Al John and the Bucks, and make
him run his vans all the way back across the St. Croix to his beach shop.
