Wolves Record: 8-10

Usually the opposite happens of whatever I predict, so I'm going to say the Spurs win this one.

Game Challenges

#1 Guess one of the following OR guess all 3 of the following and be ineligible to win the timberpup for being closest:

A. Predict Rubio's assists
B. Predict D-Will's points
C. Predict Kawhi Leonard's rebounds

1.5 timberpup for guessing, 1 timberpup for closest on each. EDIT: If you only guess one stat and get it correct, you will also get the timberpup for being closest.

#2 Guess the total number of 3 pointers made. 2 TPs for guessing, 1 for closest

#3 Correctly guessing which team will win is worth 1 timberpup

I'll take one for the team and predict a Spurs win so the Wolves actually win.

Spurs 104
Wolvees 102

#1 Leonard 7 boards
#2 18

Game Challenges
Timberwolves 102
Spurs 93

#1 not as much fun to only guess one.

A. Rubio's assists - 17
B. D-Will's points - 12
C. Kawhi Leonard's rebounds - 7



#2 12

Like Dallas, this is a team they can match up with well. Duncan's old ass is going to be exhausted after the first 5 minutes messing with Kevin Love. Surely they'll put someone else on him. Which means Pek is free to crush him. Do work, Pek!

Timberwolves 96
Spurs 94

#1
A. Rubio's assists - 9
B. D-Will's points - 8
C. Kawhi Leonard's rebounds - 8

#2 14

Bonus: The Daddy will win t-pups again and Derrick will show superstar potential with his best NBA game

wolves 93
spurs 92

#1 A. 11 assists
#2 12 3's

bonus: Pek dominates again (something like 12 pts, 6 rebounds, 2 blocks)

We could win this... why the hell not! Go us! We should have only like 2-3 losses anyways (if we had a real SG.......... )

TWolves 102 - Spurs 99


Game Challenges

#1 - Leonard 5 Boards

#2 - 19 combined threes.

The Spurs are 1 point favorites. Wow.

Wolves 96
Spurs 95

#1 DWILL - 9 points
#2 21 threes.

Bonus: Ellington three 3's

#1 Rubio 11 assists

#2 13

Wolves 104
Spurs 101

Agreed.....why not?

Bonus: Overtime game
Bonus 2: Webster hits 3+ 3's in his season debut, sparking irrational discussion here.

The Spurs are a wild puzzle to figure out...Pop is the best coach in the game and has been that way for a long time...To have this team at 12-7 with no Ginobili and an aging Duncan is incredible...Where is this scoring coming from? Their high man is Parker at 17 and then Timmy at 13, just CRAZY...I'm taking the Wolves in this game though...They ALWAYS play the Spurs tough...Did last year and obviously when they won this year...

Wolves 104
Spurs 100

#1 Derrick 11 points

#2 16 threes

Bonus: Duncan under 12.5 pts

Wolves match up well with SAS. I'm going to say

Wolfies 102
Spurs 98

1. Rubio 13 assists.
2. 18 threes.

BONUS: If Wes plays he will score in double digits on better than 50% shooting. Seriously.

Please be serious. If Webster is back the Wolves win for sure. the return of their "director of style" can mean nothing other than an easy win. In limited minutes I predict 8 points, solid D, and 2 3pters.

Duncan is going to pull at least 5 "Bosh's" by the end of the first half, which means he'll be crying when Darko, Pek, or Love completely overpower him for buckets.

I am making a major charge to the front of the pack.
