I had no clue I would love Sabonis as much as I do.

This guy just plays the game the right way.

Al Jefferson has really trimmed down.

Sabonis is a good player, and I like him, but he has a nasty habit of committing too many stupid early fouls.

I hope he doesn't keep on making this the norm.

Is it bad that I live in Houston, and I'm watching the Pacers game?

I still can't understand why Jefferson is getting minutes over Anigbogu. This is the time to see what he can do with Turner out.

I hope you're not serious. The 2nd foul he just committed was 100% Oladipo's fault, who started the PnR action before Domas even set the screen, which resulted in a moving screen violation.

It's the blue and gold! You know that's one of the best looking uniforms in the NBA every year.

If he had a slightly larger wingspan he would have gone top 5 last year.

Our center rotation is definitely above average when Turner is healthy. Sabonis is playing like a higher draft pick than anything the Cletics were offering :P

The Wolves don't look like themselves right now. We have to keep the tempo up so we can capitalize on their disoriented state and not fold when we stop shooting lights out.

When they play fast, they can outrun their opponents.

Key for Leaf is to always be aggressive. Good things happen when he's playing aggressively.
