Corey Brewer News

By Henry Abbott One of the stranger games of the NBA season happened in Portland last night.

Kelenna Azubuike scored a season-high 31 points and Anthony Randolph added 23 to help the Golden State Warriors beat the struggling Minnesota Timberwolves 146-105 on Monday night.

Ooooookaaaay. So much for starting hot out of the gate. Remember, this was the easy part of the schedule.

Two struggling teams hit the hardwood in Oakland Monday when the Golden State Warriors play host to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Somebody in the Timberwolves' locker room before Sunday's 116-93 loss wondered why Portland is called Rip City, the longtime catch phrase the Trail Blazers are using this time around to celebrate their 40th year.

Player Ht. Pos. Statistics 10 Jonny Flynn 6-0 PG 14.8 ppg, 3.2 apg 22 Corey Brewer 6-9 SG 12.8 ppg, 4.8 rpg 8 Ryan Gomes 6-7 SF 10.7 ppg, 7.2 rpg 4 Oleksiy Pecherov 7-0 PF 9.7 ppg, 5.2 rpg 25 Al Jefferson 6-10 C 15.3 ppg, 6.0 rpg Portland No.

Bogut had his second straight double-double in the win. Andrew Bogut had his second straight double-double as the Milwaukee Bucks beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 87-72 on Friday night in Minneapolis.

The Portland Trail Blazers' new lineup worked wonders in a win their last time out, and they plan on keeping Andre Miller in their starting five.

Andrew Bogut bested Al Jefferson inside with 17 points and 10 rebounds, Luke Ridnour had 16 points off the bench and the Milwaukee Bucks used a second-half surge to top the Minnesota Timberwolves 87-72 on Friday night.

Rajon Rondo had 18 points and six assists, as the Boston Celtics hung on to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves, 92-90, to remain unbeaten for the 2009-10 season.

A star in rookie form? What in the world does that mean? I mean, Corey Brewer is a good player, it's just that he's not efficient.

Hideki Matsui tied the World Series record with six RBIs on a home run, single and double that each drove in two runs, and the New York Yankees led the Philadelphia Phillies 7-3 after six innings in Game 6 on Wednesday night as they neared their record 27th championship.

Kevin Garnett had 12 points and 11 rebounds in his third game back in Minnesota since he was traded in 2007, helping the Boston Celtics remain undefeated with a 92-90 victory over the Timberwolves on Wednesday night.

Chris Kaman had 25 points and 11 rebounds, Eric Gordon hit the go-ahead layup with 1:32 to play, and the Los Angeles Clippers surged in the fourth quarter to their first victory of the season, 93-90 over the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday night.

The Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday exercised their fourth-year option on guard/forward Corey Brewer and third- year option on forward Kevin Love.

Wolves somehow defeat the Nets after being down 16 with 6:51 to play. 24-6 run powered by the tiny but powerful Jonny Flynn brought about what the Nets announcer said was a "tremendous upset." How lowly are the Wolves regarded throughout the league? The Nets were picked 14th in the East by SI.

Most of the game sucked. I take my hat off to the Wolves for not giving up. Flynn will be a great NBA player.
