The Timberwolves are 21-47 entering tonight's game at Detroit against the Pistons at 6 p.m., pregame on AM 1390/93.9 FM Granite City Sports at 5:30. Jim says the new Timberwolves head coach Chris Finch is a "cut above" former head coach Ryan Saunders.

The Minnesota Twins beat the Detroit Tigers on the road, the Wild skated past the Ducks in overtime, and the Timberwolves came up short against Miami.
