Wolves Record: 18-28
Last Game: 104-94 loss to Spurs

I actually think we have a good chance of winning this one. The Knicks are a pretty good team, but beatable and it's at home.


-Bonk was closest (off by 4) and gets 2 TPs

-Raphiel, Tod Murphy, and I get a TP each from challenge #2

-no one picked DANNY GREEN for challenge #3

3. JR Smith

1. Knicks 110 Wolves 100

Wow, that record is so bad. Hopefully we learned something from playing the Spurs that if you play the right way (even with a couple of the stars out) you can still win, and go on a 10 game winning streak and get back to .500! Actually, last time I looked at the standings, I didn't look up, but down to see how close we are to worst record in the West. This inability to win games is ridiculous. We had home court and as much talent on the floor as the Spurs, but just can't figure it out.

Interesting how Danny Green ended up winning game challenge #3. At the beginning of the second half, there was no way he was going to be the guy that scored the most above his average. BUT Pops grabs him 2:38 into the third, benches him for 4 seconds for Gary Neal, then throws him back in there and he is off and running the rest of the game. Popovich did the exact thing that he did the last time we played them...he took over the game in the third quarter and coached his team to victory. Last time I think he had enough at 11:06 and called a timeout 54 seconds into the third!

Knicks are 6 point favorites.

Pek + DWill + Rubio = (21 + 5 + 8) = 34

8th 3-pointer: Jelly Belly

Bonus: Steimer gets T'd up.

Whoops, Knicks 104 Wolves 96

Wolves 99
Knicks 100

Wolves trio 32
Melo

Pek and JR fight

1. Wolves 98
Knickerbockers 108

2. Melo 33 points

3. Shved

* Bonus 1: Richie Rubio does a Jeremy Ling impression and has the first triple-double of his young but illustrious career....

** Bonus 2: JR Smith & Wesson scores 30 points!

Pek would crush him with one hand. Even JR Smith isn't stupid enough to pick a fight w/ Pek

Knicks 102
Wolves 90


2. 18 8 8 = 34. Rubio/Pek/DWill

3. Predict which player will make the 8th 3-pointer of the game.

DWill

4-15 record in 2013. Victories are few and far between this year. I'm sure it ain't happening tonight, but I guess I'll predict in hope once again.

MNT-Wolves 103
NYK-Bockers 101

2. Great challenge, RH, since Carmelo can really go off against us. I wanted to find his career average against MN, but didn't come up with it. Let's keep the all-Wolves theme going here:
Pek 21, D-Will 8, Rubio 11 = 40

3. Of the 5 TP group, I'll try Derrick Williams.

Bonus prediction: Carmelo scores 37.

Pfff, Melo can't get off, the Wolves signed Gelabale for the rest of the year! Gelabale will lock him up.

Wolves 101
Knicks 97

Wolves trio - 40.

Greg Steimsma hits it!

Bye bye Lou. He gone!

Heck,

I'm disappointed as well with Coach Adelman, how is handling this team. I think they really just want to finish this season early and see if indeed Love fulfills his promise to leave the team if they do not reach the playoffs.

I still insist if this Gentleman does not change how rotate his players will continue to be predictable and the losses keep coming.

I'm trying to take the latest games to oblivion, but to evaluate the next is almost impossible. I do not want to keep harping on the past, so let's go to the game tonight.

Easy and not much to evaluate.

Wolves lost without question.

Everyone thinks that the key to the game is in the centers position of each team (Pek vs Chandller). We know that Carmelo and JR Smith will crucify the Wolves and J Kidd will give classes to Ricky on how to control a game. So the only hope I have is . . .

(All of you will be surprised, I say this).

Yes, the hope is that William Derrick made ​​a great game.

Whattttttttt?

Well, Carmelo apart his concentration will be on the offensive, William should spend more time alone, and Carmelo will be confident that player is crap.
If William today at least, not hits three 3-point baskets should the Coach sit him and never used again. For me that is where the key to this game to be closed at least on the scoreboard.

Others will work as usual, but if Mr. Adelman, continues the crap rotation, we will not see victory as I mentioned before.

So as well call them out there!

These Unpredictable finish the game as follows;

Knicks 110 Wolves 96

Challenge :

2 = Pek Points 18 + D-Will Reb 8 + RR Asists 11 = 37

3 = Derrick William

Bonus: """"I bet Chris Johnson not playing today""""

I hope I'm wrong on this bonus because I did not hit one with Aldeman rotation. It's almost begged him to put to play

Finally, today will be good to see the game from one of my favorite teams in the playoffs to dethrone the Miami Heats.

Seguiremos . . .

1st half


Knicks 6 - Wolves 0 from the 3 point line.

Jumm

D. Will I need 5 TP's tonight.

Continuamos . . .
