Wolves Record: 15-15
Last Game: 102-97 loss to Blazers

This team is so consistently inconsistent that I have no clue how this game is going to go. The Hawks haven't been playing that well lately but they are a pretty good road team. Could go either way. At least Ricky should play.

Even though I am kind of down on the squad right now, I will pick them since I'm going to be in attendance and I want to #embracehomerism

Rumors.

The Timberwolves are planning to rename the team by "UNPREDICTABLES" . It's a joke, but it seems true, ahh.

As Roundhouse rightly mentioned, the consistency of this team is inconsistency. It's very hard every day to predict what will happen with this team.
Today is another one of those days that I have to pay attention to my little angel who whispers in my ear. My logic says Wolves should lose today but that little angel is urging me they will win. So I will not contradict him and I am going to take the win today for the team, called inconsistent & UNPREDICTABLES.

T-Wolves 97 Hawks 93

Bonus;
1 - Dante will have a big game with no K-Love.
2 - D-William again mired in misfortune
3 - R. The Mecias Rubio will come do what he has not done since his injury last year and have 5 TO's. 9 points, 7 Asst. 1 Reb, 2 steals.
4 JJ Barea, Jumm .... Depend on whether or not they put ice on his back. lol

Espero Estemos . . .

Adelman not coaching tonight. I wonder what that's all about.

First half notes:

- Ricky Rubio + Avery Bradley would = championship. I'm sure of it. If you've paid attention to the Celtics, his addition to the lineup now that he's healthy had made the team much better. Rubio has done the same this half. All defense. it will be good when he is able to be "good Ricky" consistently again. Hey Kobe, how's that karma working out? You hurt Rubio, your team sucks.

- How about all of you (generalizing) insisting that Horford was going to be amazing and that he was sooo much better than Josh Smith. As they both level off it's clear Josh Smith is more valuable in the AK mold. Horford is Pek minus the strength and size and tattoos.

- Derrick Williams is a superstar.

- John Jenkins is the black Kyle Korver, except smaller.

Woo awesome game. I was really getting nervous at the end there. That would have been soulcrushing if we lost. Thank goodness we have CunningHAM on the team. He made the 2 biggest plays of the game.

-Great game by Pek! Probably the best game of his career, the Hawks had no way of stopping him. 25 points, 18 rebounds.

-Derrick Williams was key to victory. He really carried the offense at times.

-Ricky's stats don't look very good, but he played a solid game. This is the first time this season I"ve seen him play great defense like last year. Hopefully that's a sign that he's getting healthier.

-AK47 had an offensive explosion (by his standards). He hit 2 huge 3-pointers in the 4th quarter.

I think everyone on the team played a good game, except it wasn't Barea's night. Like the Daddy said, Josh Smith and Ak47 are practically the same player. They're both awesome. And screw Kyle Korver, it's so scary when he gets the ball at the 3-point line because it seems like a huge victory if by the off chance he misses.

-We lucked out that K-Lav is DNP until he gets healthy. I think if he plays poorly here, we lose. D-Will was so important and CunningHAM was huge at the end of the game, if you squeezed out even one of them from the rotation, we would have lost.

Man, i didn't make any predictions and the Wolves won. Maybe that's saying something. Oh well, on to the OKC predictions
