That was ugly yet exciting game. Love is better than Horford on the offensive end of the court already. Probably could be better than him overall if turn into a defensive player. It will be interesting to see what happens to Marvin. I think when all said and done he will be returning. Wolves could go after Chill. Chill is ready to head back home. The whole overseas thing isn't what its all cracked up to be as he thought it was.

Gomes 1-10 with 3 points 3 boards in 40 minutes. That is one of the ugliest stat lines I have ever seen.

Can anyone explain to me why Gomes was in the game during crunch time instead of Love? Ahh so frustrating.

On a positive note, glad to see Rashad trying to set up his teammates and playing inspired defense. If he can keep that up I wouldn't mind if he keeps getting minutes. Good players find a way to make their teammates better when their shot isn't falling. Hopefully his time off has given him an opportunity to see that.

Big men duo put up double doubles while the boys at the 1,2 and 3 combined for 5-38 shooting. (13%)

Amazed that Miller, McCants and Love were able to close the gap to a single digit loss. (wasn't it a four point game in the fourth?)

Man didn't see the game but I'm happy Rashad played and had a positive outing.

Yeah that's me. But that is entirely based on the premise that a few were ready to offer 60/6.

I like him, but I like him for 40/6.


Considering we couldn't even offer him a 6 year contract, I'm pretty sure you'd have a tough time finding someone who actually said 60/6. ;-)

50/5 and 52/5 have been the most common numbers tossed out.

Monster game by Williams though, shows just a taste of what he's capable. Love him in a Wolves uni.

It was a two point game late in the fourth.
