This game is reminding me of the Saints/Falcons game post Katrina.

Gonna be a very, very, very tough win. They'll be supercharged.

Tough matchup for Bryant, we´ll see how he responds against Wiggins.

Randle against Garnett should be fun as well.

I think Lavine will be coming off the bench in favor of Tayshaun Prince. That's who Kobe will be guarding to begin the game.

Yep, Prince and Bryant will be matched up while Clarkson will have his hands full with Wiggins.

Metta and Nance are currently designated as inactive. Can still change.

If KAT is really going to guard Hibbert, Im telling Hibbert to get deep position on this kid.

I'm hoping for a energized Lakers team to start things off they need to play with a chip on there shoulder especially since everyone is counting them out.

What are your guys' minute expectations/hopes for this year? Keep in mind there are 240 minutes to be allocated. Here's mine:

Russell (28)/Huertes (15)
Clarkson (34)/Williams (22)
Bryant (28)/Young (18)
Randle (34)/Kelly (8)/Bass (7)
Hibbert (28)/Black (18)

Ahh yeah.....it's time ! Let's get it.

First off to the T-Wolves fans that will peep our GT.....us Laker fans truly want to express our condolences for Coach Saunders. I was really happy for you guys when he came back, he's put you guys in unbelievable position for the future. I know the Wolves will be amped for this game.

Ok for us....the keys to winning will be controlling Minnesota from getting into their tempo, we have to board, minimize our turnovers and get at least 25-29 bench points. The key matchups will be slowing Zach and Wiggins, can't let them get into the open court and must keep those two off the line.

Looking forward to Julius having a good night.

Tayshaun Prince is starting at the 3. Wiggins will be playing his best position at SG.

Pek isn't playing at least for another few months. Bjelica will be getting a ton of minutes.

I'm betting Russell comes off the bench.
