No line for this one... K. Love's status is up in the air, but my guess is that he won't play?

Phx hasn't played since the break. We have played twice in a row already.

Wolves 102
Suns 106

Here is what I came up with for my trade:
espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=7xscqcd
(Josh Smith/Teague for Nash/Dudley/Redd)

Atlanta gets better now and mixes it up (finally), and adds a winner and leader, Phx gets a PG for the future and Josh Smith. This probably favors Phx since Nash is a free agent soon, but you never know, I could see Atlanta possibly doing it. Maybe you sub in Hinrich for Teague and add Warrick to the mix as well to make it so PHX isn't getting quite as much. So Roundhouse, if you like that one better consider my 2nd trade:

Josh Smith/Hinrich for Nash/Dudley/Warrick

Bonus: Gortat & Peck engage in an epic battle of Euro supremacy for combined stats of 40+/20+

Yea Phoenix gets way too much in the first trade. The 2nd one is pretty good.

Pretty much the perfect trade

And the TWolves get a first round pick in 2012 from the Lakers.

The Blazers give up every wing on their team except Wes Mathews?

Batum = Potential free agent

Gerald Wallace = decline PO and then can be a free agent

Raymond Felton = free agent (PG, not a wing)

Jamal Crawford = PO and can decline to become a FA if he wants

I don't see what the issue is there.

Also, I would have given the Blazers another guy(s) to make up for it, but the Trade Machine only can have 9 guys. I assume for the TP contest you 100% have to have all the guys in the machine and for it to work and say "Success"? Otherwise, I would gladly add to mine.

Is it just me or does it seem like Rubio don't have the same type of energy he had before?

Before the Allstar break, in the 4th qtr, Rubio has the ball in his hand and then breaks down the defense but now he hands it off to Luke or can't get into the paint as easily.

sigh..this will be a tough end of the season. the work horse in Love, Rubio, and Pek are slowing down and everyone are super inconsistent. The only consistent one is Luke but he is playing out of position.

Rubio is probably tired from the long season (longer than in Europe at least), and the huge minutes he has been playing this year. Plus he's a rookie so he's not used to it.

Our schedule is brutal, we'll probably start losing a lot of games, unfortunately.

It sure would help though if we had a competent shooting guard. Thanks for nothing Kahn, you moron.

Could we have shot any worse in the 2nd half? Ugh, at least Martell looked good. Yeah, Rubio does look fatigued/not as sharp. But like C.Wolf said it's a longer season for him. I'm sure he will be fine. Those refs were horrible. Calling ticky tack in the 1st half of each quarter and then just tucking the whistles away after that. I really hate it when K. Love gets all caught up in that and doesn't hustle back though. 3 games in 3 nights does have to be tough. Especially v. a team who hasn't played in a week. On to the next one...

I don't know if I've ever seen a trade that is that close to being realistic which netted the Wolves a +12 mythical wins. I don't think Portland would do that deal. They are trying to squeek into the playoffs and it is just too hard to give up that many guys in the rotation.

Just because all those guys could leave Portland doesn't mean they will.

I'm blanking did sign and trades get outlawed?
