It should to be difficult to a team like wolves, so young, to play 18 games away of their first 29.

Have to win this one for Big Al Jefferson!!! Win and go 3-1 on road trip which is pretty good. They can score but play no Defense so I think the Jazz win going away so long as the effort is there.

Millsap and Jefferson should combine for 5 rebounds if we're lucky.

BOOM BITCHES PT 2.
Honestly, I don't know why the TWolves are so bad. Between Love/Beasley/Flyn, I would think they'd be able to pull in some more W's
Not a game to be taken lightly. I'd like to see the Jazz have a double digit lead at the end of the 1st and never look back...
...Ah, in a perfect world.

Flynn has only played five games this season. He had an injury and I think he went to the d-league for a bit before playing for the Wolves again. I like watching Flynn, hopefully Deron gets the best of him this time.

We (wolves) still have him, but he's 4th string behind Ridnour/Flynn/Telfair

We're better than last year. Besides a few really awful losses (including a record setting one against Orlando), we're mostly losing close games rather than getting blown out every night like last year. Basically it comes down to inconsistency and an inability to close out games. If we could close out games we would have beaten the Spurs handily twice this season, plus a number of other games. With Flynn back and Webster back (currently looking like one of our best players), hopefully we'll start putting together a FEW wins anyway, once they are fully assimilated into what we are doing...oh...and when Darko is actually back again. He's the backbone of our defense.

I think you mean the only part of our defense. If Darko is out you will get to the rim with ease. Especially D-Will, since both Ridnour and Flynn apparently thinks that Defense is a term for uprooting your backyard fence.
And dont worry, we will make you look good. Your outside shooting will look spectacular and if Darko is out, youll be wondering why your players don't drive to the rim like this every game.
I'm not conceding the game by any means though. We can score, its just that we are somewhat inconsistent on that. Defense, we are consistent. Problem is is that we are consistently bad.
Good luck guys!

Wolves have handed us some tough to swallow losses last couple of seasons. Don't tell them they are 6-23, they will play us tough like always. If there is a lotto team that gives us trouble it is Minnesota. I feel like we are playing well so it should be a good game.

I've always liked Luke Ridnour, but defense isn't his forte. And I'd have to say I like the Wolves in general. Kevin Love is a monster, and it seems like the energy is always there from the team, even if the wins aren't.
Good luck to you all as well.

Hopefully Al doesn't try to do too much in his return to Minny and turn into black hole Al.
But honestly we should win this game and go into the Christmas break on a 3 game win streak on the road.

Wise words. Jazz should be able to win if they jump into it with the right mindset... if not...

Highly doubt Memo plays tonight. This is a dangerous Wolves team regardless of what their record shows.
