Losers of 4 straight the Wolves come to town with a new coach poached from the Tampa Raps.

Unlikely Jrue plays

Give the young guys some burn so they impress and we can dump them on the Wolves for Rubio, Beasley and Reid.

It's a damn border battle is what it is. If an arbitrary boundary cannot arouse sufficient excitement, hit the Nugenix posthaste.

If arousal lingers for greater than four hours, that's just the cost of doing business in the northernmost reaches of the American midwest. Trust me, she'll like it too.

Actually think a L here would be great for the board. For the lolz.

Does the promise of a three-game win streak not send the blood rushing to your member? Are you not interested in seeing the 7' Al B Sure! doppelganger man the pivot for the Wolfs and stack up the quietest 25-12 game you can imagine? Do you not want to be able to tell your children you were there for the beginning of the roughly 3-year Chris Finch Era?

This should be a fun game. There’s really not much to worry about. Bucks should try everything new they possibly can. Switch on defense, try new inbound plays pretending there’s is 2 seconds left for s***s, play Merrill and Thanasis, he’ll, even DJW.

IDK. Four hours is a long time for her to stay off her phone. But while we throb with anticipation, the NBA season chugs along like a dutiful wife wiping her hands on her apron.

I don't like the look on her face tonight. She looks like a team scared into caring by having a new PERMANENT coach thrust upon them. I see a CAT with claws for a change.

But still a win. 120-114.

If the Wolfs don't leverage the aesthetically-pleasing passing of Ricky Rubio with a highlight package brand tie-in a la "The Hormel Hot Dish of the Night," capitalism may be on the downward slope.imo

Wonder if Finch will tell his guys to blitz/trap Middleton since it worked so well last week when Finch was still on the Raptors’ bench.

Over/under how many more teams cycle through Ricky Rubio as their starting PG before the shine finally dulls and the league realizes that he's Brevin Knight 2.0?

I'll set it at 3.5.

He may not be the answer, but a PG tandem of Jrue and Rubio seems a lot more impactful than Jrue and whatever DJA is bringing to the table. Rubio was pretty good last year, and his defense is still above average

Ricky Rubio is half a foot taller and in a different galaxy as both a passer and defender. His cheekbones are enviable, his mane is luscious, his beard betrays a hint of danger, he is nothing if not foreign intrigue and, calendar be damned, there's a good many on this damn forum who yearn to be his valentine.

He suffers the same puffy face syndrome as Pedro Pascal, without having the moody mannerisms and handsome leading man qualities. While Pedro might be able to shoot a basketball better.

6/10 on the Spanish dream boat scale (Pedro's Chilean, whatever....)
