We need a game thread so here's one.

The frontcourt of Love and Pekovic should, in theory, dominate tonight. Augustine is suppose to be back tonight for CHA and Ridnour will be back for MIN (Yay).

Prediction: The Wolves wil ride the Love train to victory.

If we don't win this one, I think we should forfeit the next few games. They need a victory soon to get out of this mental slump.

Pek should get 15+ touches tonight!

Post #4 » by **C.lupus** » Wed Feb 15, 2012 8:54 pm

I think so.

All games are must wins IMHO

I'm wondering what brainiack decided which games to televise/not televise. I mean, who sits there and says "lets televise the Bobcats game, and leave the Knicks game dark."

True, but if lose to these guys, I'll be hiding for a few days.

Not only would this loss be bad for our record, but losing to the worst team, a team who's lost 15 in a row, would absolutely KILL any positive feelings the Wolves have had through a somewhat surprising/successful start to the season. The team's confidence would be completely shattered and potentially could be a harmful loss for the season as a whole. But it is only one game.

I love that Adelman is here and who am I to question a HOF coach, but if he continues to do the rotations and run the same plays that basically killed us at the end of the Knicks game, and for the entire Grizzlies game, I'll be pretty livid.

No, he's still a few weeks away. He's a second rounder that hasn't played in a game or been able to practice with the team all season.

He played 3 games in the D-League and just got recalled, so it is technically his "first game back". Whether or not RA plays him is one thing, but he is with the team and healthy.

He was wide open.

I'm sick of losing. This team should not have lost 16 games.

we've been overachieving so far imo. 13-16 is a good record for how we've played considering we only have 3 consistently good players

We better not lose this one.

Post #19 » by **C.lupus** » Thu Feb 16, 2012 12:05 am

I'm feeling triple double potential for Ricky tonight. Either that, or it's indigestion.

#Twolves head coach Rick Adelman tells the media that Luke Ridnour will start tonight.
