Predictable. I remember the Thunder were such a team who managed to screw up a lot of close games as well a few seasons ago. We can only hope that we can turn the corner like they did.

You can't get the defensive rebound if you close out on Brand's jumper......


I think Love has to trust his teammates to rebound the ball.

One of our players would have to make a serious leap, though. It was mostly Kevin Durant improving by a lot and the addition of Russel Westbrook that made them so much better.

Even if we improve by leaps and bounds I doubt we'll even crack 35 wins next season. However, that's something I could live with as long as they show definite signs of improvement.

I know Calinks hates moral victories, but we lost a road game against a playoff team without our two best defensive players. I'm not going to get upset about this one. A little frustrated maybe, but not upset.

The last thing I remember was Love limping off. Is it worth my time to watch the rest of the game?

Love left the arena limping after he got hit yet again on a thigh that's been bruised as least twice in the last week and he left again after another individual performance that left Sixers coach Doug Collins and Kurt Rambis marveling.

"I wish it was another win," Love said as he left the locker room.

Collins said this afterward, "That Kevin Love is amazing. He's an amazing guy. The one play he made in the first half: I mean Elton is as strong as there is and Elton came down on him and that kid still scored the basket with the three-point play. That Love kid is a special, special player."

Said Rambis: "It's just amazing, but it's just getting to be mundane. He's just doing the same thing over and over and over again. It's pretty impressive for someone to put up those kind of numbers, especially considering he's not sneaking up on anybody. Every team knows what he’s doing and what he’s trying to do and they're still struggling to control and corral him."

Klomp's stat of night

Kevin Love has ten 20/20 games this season.
Dirk Nowitzki has ten 10/10 games this season.

I don't think the majority of your board agrees, but the fit of Iguodala on the Wolves' roster has been proposed here before. Can't see Beasley and the 1 being enough to get it done, but there is a lot of talent on the roster around which something of value could be proposed.

Beasley and a top 3 pick isn't enough to get Iguodala? Come on now.
