I would've agreed with this (having not seen him yet this year), but Wolves fans seem to be really high on his defense. But yeah, while a guy like Luke Ridnour is a solid player, it's not a great sign to see him get major minutes.

Calm down, kid. We're well aware that the Wolves self-destructed toward the end.

Darko has been injured as of late and I believe he should have sat out this one to get healthy, so he may not have looked as effective as he normally would when 100%. It may not have looked like it tonight but he's a pretty important piece to this team both on the offensive end and even more on the defensive end since Love is such a poor defender. Hopefully he will be full strength when we head to Utah at the end of January.

With most of the people on the Wolves board almost all of us would agree with the Luke Ridnour comment. He is by no means a starter and it isn't a good sign that he's getting those types of minutes.

Best of luck with the rest of the season guys.

Jefferson played like I had hoped he would play all season in the second half. Played awesome D all night, loving his shot blocking.

Hayward gave some good minutes. Good confidence boost for him.

Millsap was great. Got the short end of the stick on the fouls...same with CJ. Some of those fouls were a joke. (yes, some of the no calls on Minny were bad too so don't flip out Minny fans....)

Yeah I thought officiating was really inconsistent throughout the whole game, fouls being called and then not called for the same things, both ways.
