Wolves Record: 16-20 :(
Last Game: 90-77 loss to the Clippers

Well the Holy Virgin of Grace didn't help us beat the Clippers. All the pretenders in the West (Warriors, Blazers, Rockets) have been struggling lately. It's too bad that we have next to zero chance of making the playoffs at this point due to injuries. How many players do we even have available for this game? Like 8.5? (Lazar Hayward only counts as half a player). Rockets win.


-CW was closest (off by 27) and gets 2 TPs

-CW technically didn't guess challenge #2 because he was off by 0.02, but that's ridiculously close, so I'm giving him the 5 TPs B)

-Flash was closest on challenge #3 for 1 TP

-everyone who picked the Clippers to win gets a TP

Game Challenges

1. Correctly predicting which team wins the game is worth 1 TP.

2. Predict which player in this game will get injured. 2 TPs if your player gets an injury timeout. 2 TPs if they go to the locker room for the injury. 2 TPs if they don't come back into the game after being injured.

3. Guess how many points James Harden will score. 2 TPs for guessing, 1 for closest.

Doesn't sound like SHVED is gonna play. And no Pek. And no one else... holy crap we have like no guys right now. We are gonna get destroyed (again.) Asik will have like 38 rebounds and 12 blocks.

TWolves 87 - Rockets 105


2. Oh yeah, totally Barea.

3. Harden for 32 points


Tons of injuries
Who needs players, we've got Crunch

Brilliant! 2 Howls coming Roundhouse's way.
(1 for the above and a second to rectify me being an idiot and accidentally hitting a negative howl just now.)

I'll wait to post my predictions to see if Harden gets hurt tonight in Indiana.
(Well, it could happen that another team gets an injury, right?)

1. Well, if we were going to manage to win a game, it would be this one. The Rockets played tonight, got beat up and have been playing terribly as of late falling out of the top 8. However, with No Pek or Shved we're going to get eaten alive

Rockets 100 Wolves 92

2. Barea

3. 28

Bonus: Gelabale makes his debut, logs a time of 20:10, scores 12 points

Is this game really not on TV at all or is it on FSN plus tonight? If you know, let me know, it would be appreciated.

I thought I heard Jim Pete say something about 2 games not being on TV. Not 100% on that though. In this day and age, it's pretty ridiculous when you still can't get all of your games on TV. :S

EDIT: Just confirmed at nba.com that it's not on TV

CSN Houston, League Pass, or probably on that FirstRowSports link that CW has occasionally mentioned.
