Yep, Spurs gonna beat us. Especially with AK out.

TWolves 101 - Spurs 106


2. Pek points 19 points

3. Splitter 24 points

Is AK out for sure? I just read "questionable."

Also, Manu and Duncan are likely out, but don't know the final word on those two either.

Wolves 93
Spurs 101

Tony P - 24 points

Boris Diaw 14 points

Bonus: Role reversal compared to the recent trend: We get off to a significant lead, only to lose in a not that close game in the end.

The Shooting Guard T-Wolves need:






If they hire him, it may be that we can be . . .

1) I am a betting man, so, today, I will bet on the underdog (especially, if Timmeey Dunked and Manos Gillibilly do not play...!):

Wolves - 102
Spares - 100

2. T. Parked - 25

3. Richie Rubio - 25

Bonus:
Timmeey Dunked will keep this expression throughout the whole game:

I have not made ​​my prediction but this makes things look more positive for Wolves:

TwolvesNow ‏@Twolvesnow
Popovich confirms that Duncan (knee, ankle) and Ginobili (hamstring) not playing tonight vs T-Wolves.

Continuamos . . .

Hi,

I have high Fellings with the T-wolves tonight. I think the absence of Ginobili is more important than the absence of Duncan and despite this morning to be thinking in a new defeat for Wolves. This little detail has to change my whole perspective on game today.

It will be nice to see a good matchup between Splitter & Pek (Both international). Pek as Spitter Both are playing their best basketball, but I think Splitter can give even more of what he is doing. I hope tonight is not proposed to give that extra mile. Anyway I will Pek against.

The biggest problem for the Wolves will Parker and Green. These two are very, far superior in skill that Rubio, Ridnour, Shved, and Barea.
The only thing that might benefit them to get a win tonight is that Adelman today should come with a different rotation with PG's and also come with a lot of speed, running from the beginning of the game instead of leaving it to the last period as it has been doing lately.

Youth is supposed to have better air and physical condition for the end of the game and that's what the Wolves have. I mean he have to use to Barea, Ridnour and Rubio together very early and not be predictable in the substitutions, waiting and doing a rotation that is not working. We have also seen how Dante is killing the league with his mid-range shot, then why continue to use it to William in the Starting line up. (You know what I think of williams)

You might wonder. What about Shved in that rotation? Yep, I also use it in rotation speed that I propose, but it would bring more to the defense, because lately Shved his shots are not going to the basket and today will be no Kirilenko, for get his crazy passes. (I hope this guy leave the bad habit of jumping to pass the damn ball).

This will be an interesting tonight and I hope the Crystal Ball of my Uncle Walter Mercado, today was not wrong.

Here then, as I see in that crystal ball ended like this:

OVERTIME

T-Wolves 103 Spurs 100

A- Parkers = 26 points

D. Blair = 12 points

Bonus :

Today, Chris Johnson will play and should get at least 9 points.

Estaremos . . .

Wolves 96
Spurs 108

Pek 16
Diaw 12

Fyck yea, I don't have to see Duncan's trash ass on the court. He's luck, too. Williams and HAM would just dominate him the same way Love dominated KG earlier in the year...

Wolves 106
Spurs 102

Pek - 24

Rubio - 21 points
