No offense to the T-Wolves but this should be an easy one for us.

Marco's been upgraded to questionable. So I doubt he plays but it's an improvement...

Rubio, Martin, Young, and Pekovic all out so, yeah, unless Pop rests all the starters for the Spurs, it should be a cake walk.

I'm disappointed that Rubio won't play tonight; I always enjoy getting to watch him play. He hasn't evolved into the star some of us expected (yet), but he sure can handle and pass.

Go Spurs!

Just heard about Martin, you guys just can't catch a break.

It's nice to see the Spurs, especially Tony, look like the Spurs. Taking into consideration Minnesota is decimated by injuries, the Spurs are finally hitting shots. I actually really like the T Wolves roster. They have a good PG, Wiggins is going to be that 3 necessary in today's game, two good centers in Dieng and Pek, plus Anthony Bennett is showing flashes.

I want to see KA vs Lavine!

Good easy win for us tonight. Nice to see Marco back and I really really hope Cojo's ankle isn't too serious.

I think he needs to go to that shot more. Defenses set up for him driving the lane and really aren't prepared for his long range shot.

Yeah i've noticted that as well. They still don't seem to believe that he's a threat from there.

I think they just prefer him shooting a wide open three instead of driving to the paint.

Plus, most of Parker's threes are from the corner. He's made like 1 or probably 2 that's not from the corner.
