I was gonna make a predict the national tv games thread again but I thought it was too early for that, didn't know they would drop that already. 5 games (I don't count NBA TV). About what I would have guessed. TNT absolutely hated us. The mid-season tournament didn't give us one national game so I knew we were in for a poor showing when I saw that. A few of the bad teams from last year also got big boosts I am sure like the Spurs for Victor W. Kings probably got way more games. And of course, the Lakers and Knicks are good teams again so they are probably getting 30 national games each. Actually surprised TNT gave us 2 games considering. Must be because we made the playoffs.

A little surprised at the Hawks. We are in the dregs. Definitely the most talented team in our crop to get so few games besides the Hawks. We should probably be in that 11-15 range talent/hype wise but the funk of our team has us lower.

Heck, we were even shafted on NBA-TV home games....the national audience only gets Grady and JimPete once.

I don't want to bet against Vegas (which is general consensus) but don't see how we could be under 44 wins.

I think the over on MIN, and the under on LAL seem like sure winners.

I was going to look at this for Minny but this guy beat me to it. I'm glad the Wolves get some benefit on this rest issue. With health on the roster this team can be top 4. Lets. ****. Go.
Cheers
