Great job by Adelman. Did he also tell Rubio to play like Beasley?

thank you! Will do.

oh man just caught this on DDL!!! bahahaha

great game to watch but if we wanna win we gotta stop starting that garbage starting line-up

Props to Adelman for putting a good line up on the court to start a half. It makes a difference.

Jim Peterson: "Rubio is not soft."

Neither are his fans.

If someone could slow down Deng, we'd have the lead.

Rubio just knows how to create shots for guys and get them the ball.

Peterson just said:

Last 15 Wolves FG's: Rubio made 3 and assisted on 10!

A game challenge should have been "Who will be responsible for more points, the MVP or the back-up rookie PG?"

We actually outscored an opponent in the 3rd quarter!

We got a chance at this one. Love needs to have a big quarter. Hard to do it if he is not on a roll. Especially with D-Will giving nothing this game.

Well win or lose, this is about all you can expect from the Wolves. They just don't have as much talent but are staying in it.

D-Charge had the charge on a player standing in the lane horizontally I have EVER seen. So, the defender was facing the sidelines and still took a charge from him. Ha!

All Williams had to do was pull up and hit a 10 foot jumper instead of whatever he was trying to do flying into the lane.

D-Rose was awesome in the 4th. He is such a stud. Hopefully he can take out LeBron this year in the playoffs.

Deng was awesome, too. Wish someone could have stuck with him.

As daddy said, this is about all we could expect from the Wolves. With Adelman making some changes in the rotation minutes distribution tonight, maybe this game ends up being a learning and turning point. Let's hope so. Time to win some games.

Freaking Rubio. This kid shits gold bricks I swear. He's the Bill Brasky of Minnesota Sports right now. If you could bottle his saliva and sell it as an herbal remedy you'd make a freaking fortune.

All we can expect from him at this point. Ridnour filling it up as 2 guard, and Randolph contributing as well. 11 point loss when your best player shoots 27%?

Not bad, pups.

Good, good effort (aside from the 1st quarter). Adelman has all he needs at this point. he's not got many options, and he's just going to have to be creative win games. If Luke can just be the 2 guard like he did tonight (while probably not shooting as well, though) it can work in the interim. Obviously the team needs wings/slashers like nobody's business. These last two games Beasley's shot creation would have been handy...

Randolph, Luke, and Rubio all get A's. Those three were the ONLY reason the Wolves were in it.

Love got it going after awhile. He definitely needs some rest. He looks fat and tired again. Get him some sleep.

I would love to be in Adelman's bed head tonight as he tries to sleep. Who does he start now? It's clear as day Wes can't play anymore. Give him a D league stint to get his confidence up. I'M SERIOUS. If Barea is injured again, good luck winning. If Barea and Beasley are back, can Beasley take Rubio's spot in the 2nd unit as a spark plug? Do you start Randolph over Darko? The interior defense was absolutely horrendous...and Darko is the only thing that helps that. But he's sort of a Ben Wallace without the ability to dunk. Questions, questions, questions.

By the way...Rose just decided to end this Rubio nonsense about halfway through the 4th. Wall was frustrated. Lebron and the cHeat were frustrated. Westbrook pissed himself. Rose smiled and waited his time...only to dominate the Wolves and Rubio at the end.

Here's a real superstar. I can root for this humble dude that refuses to chase other stars and just plays the game.
