Gahhhhhhhhhhh we need to win SO bad! I think I have faith in us. We have 2 days off and hopefully the practice time will help. The Hornets are ok, but not that good by any means. Too bad its in New Orleans though.

Game Challenges

#1 - All 5 of the Wolves starters will win their matchups, dig it!?


#2 11 for 16


#3 Wes has had his chance against Rasual Butler, Singleton, and now Aminu. How many more chances does he get against other horrible players? I hope no more after Beasley, Martell, and Lee can play. I have no predictions for this matchup. It's garbage. Because of this matchup, I'm not watching this game.

1. Love the only Twolvie to win his matchup (H-H-H-W-H)
2. 8-15
3. Wes and Alfaruqie will go 1-7 combined from the field.
Wes will play less then 10 min as will Alfaruqie.

Wolves - 95
Hornets - 89

#1 Hmmm...Well this is a tough/bunk challenge because we are likely to see a starting lineup change/Ridnour plays half of his minutes at SG...but...

PG: Hornets (if Ridnour starts, Wolves if Ricky starts...can I do that?)
SG: Hornets
SF: Wolves
PF: Wolves
C: Hornets

#2 9-14

3.

Wes and Al-Farouq;
A battle for the Ages...
Who will suck the most?

Is Beasley back tomorrow? Hope so. Then he'll amaze you all with his newfound knack for ball-movement and high percentage shots. Considering the Hornets' lineup, either Beasley or Luke/Barea can play the 2 guard, meaning Wes doesn't need to leave the bench. Play D-Charge and Tolliver at the 3. Easy win. Get Buckets.

They will be called important pieces to their respective teams by the broadcasters, and then play less than 30 minutes combined. When will the joke that is Wes Johnson end?

BONUS: Rubio will throw 4 succesfull alley-oops.

Center Brad Miller (knee), swingman Martell Webster (back) and rookie guard Malcolm Lee (knee) all had surgeries before the season and have not been available. Miller did some light work in practice on Thursday, but all three are at least a few weeks away from being able to play.

Webster -- a few weeks? Really? He isn't playing before the end of January? Come on, man, get on the court.

I like the fire and leadership Ricky is showing. Someone needs to stand up and say these starts are unacceptable. Interesting to see him be the one that steps up. And it is not just words. He first did it on the court when he came in the Bulls game.

"We are starting like, waiting for it," Rubio said. "We have to punch first. I mean, in this league, if they punch first, like Chicago did, you are in trouble. You are 24 down and then you start playing, like we did. But in the end, you are in trouble if you are not controlling the game. And if you are 24 down, it's so hard to control the game."
