Was it 5 games that we just couldn't seem to get in a row, or was it 6?

It is 6 games we can't seem to win in a row. 5 game win streaks have happened several times since Jimmy Butler became a Wolf but I don't think we've seen the Wolves win more than 5 games since actually waaaaaayyyyyyy back in 2004 or so.

Wanna add even more pressure to tomorrow? The Wolves have not swept a road, road back to back since 2011. To get the 6th they must break an 11 year curse. But fate seems to have handed them the best chance they will get. With Harkless ankle sprain now your talking about an 8 man roster for the Kings with Fox probably out of shape and gassed and missing most of their shooting.

I reckon the players have already been made aware by others. If I am responsible for that I feel slightly flattered but also surprised someone from the franchise bothers to read my posts

Keep in mind that we have one more week until the all-star break. Yeah, Ant will be there for the festivities so it's not a complete rest, but it's still 8 days between games that matter. He'll get his rest.

He should skip the RSG, we need him as close to healthy as he can possibly get. He should be an All Star or at least an injury replacement, he has nothing to prove and everything to lose by further aggravating his knee.
