looks like a fun game against 2 over-achieving teams. if i was a betting man, i'de put my money on the home team. but as a fan, i remain cautious. rubio could have a great night, but only if his teammates do too. jazz defense should be enough to take care of them. you never know how much desire these guys will come out with tonight.

Just to help out, it's at 7 mountain time.

This is going to be a really fun game to watch. Both really bad teams from last year on the rise. Hope we beat them bad, would do a lot to lessen the sting of the last game.

Quick turnaround for T'Wolves after last night's emotional win. Gotta jump out quick and get ahead early.

Jazz have been good against teams they should beat...... As long as Love doesn't go nuts (I'm looking at you Paul Millsap), Jazz should win this one.......

Gonna be fun watching Rubio. Thats a Jazz style point guard right there.

This will not be an easy game.

The Timberwolves have also shown rapid improvement as the season has progressed, and their confidence level has to be at an all-time high after last night's win.

I believe the Jazz will win a close one, but they'll have to play hard the entire 48.

No such thing as an easy game. Every game is hard till your leading by 30 even then its just a fun game not easy. Id like to see Kanter vs Love.

I know that Bell hasn't played as bad lately, but he still limits our offense so much. Our SL is really hindered with him. I really hope Ty starts Howard when he comes back.

wow finally got to see Kanter take a jumpshot. Fluid

both teams played good 1st half..they should be tired for the 2nd half. Rubio is reminds me so much of STockton. He is really good!
