1. I like Kevin Love. He seems like a normal dude. But, I think sometimes he operates on a different wavelength than other pro athletes (not that its a bad thing). He tweeted out was was giving away stuff

   *edit* didnt see New Guy talk about this earlier. awesome

   1. Wave length, you say?

   2. Love got twitters.

2. Final Score:

   Wolves 103, Grizz 89, Pek! 42, Beasley DNP-CD

   You heard it here first.

3. GW has blown an 11 point lead with 7 minutes left and is about to lose to Temple. Ugh this team has absolutely no killer instinct.

   1. They've missed six layups in the last six minutes.

      1. Is Darko playing for them?

4. Wes is starting. Automatic win baby

5. plenty of seats available

6. nice bounce pass from Luke to Wes Johnson on that fast break

7. impressed with Ridnour's passing so far

   1. not so much his shooting

8. Beautiful cut to Williams there.

9. When is Pek! going to take over?

10. geeze, we have about 17 turnovers this quarter

11. Ridnour almost makes me want to see SCB play more.

12. Gay with the most obvious reach in foul in the history of reach in fouls. He just latched on to Pek!'s arm and stayed there for a few seconds.

13. Real Wolves Game Plan:
    * Score more than the other dudes

14. This is some fugly ball by the puppies so far.

    1. We've got them where we want them, then.

15. Note to Gasol: Leading with your shoulder is not the way to draw a charge.

16. I'm still trying to learn the ins and outs of basketball. Can someone please explain "The Bonus" to me?

    1. After a certain number of team fouls by the opposing team you go into the bonus. After you're in the bonus, you get free throws for all defensive (non-offensive?) fouls by the other team regardless of whether or not it was in the act of shooting.

       1. defensive and loose ball fouls count toward team fouls/bonus free throws

          1. Thank you! That makes sense.

       2. That's scary how close your description is to the one I was typing. I had to check how many team fouls it took (5 per quarter) before the bonus kicks in, or we'd have had two "certain number" posts.

17. DWill with a nice drive to the basket for a layup, Beasley shooting three pointer. I like this.

18. That was in the act of shooting?

19. What the hell, Webster?

20. Remember when Mayo used to play for the Wolves?

    1. Was that at the same time as Brandon Roy and Ray Allen?

    2. I remember when Juwon Howard played with the Wolves

21. the crowd sounds bored, the announcers sound bored, and the players look sluggish.

22. How are we only down three?

    1. I was thinking that- the Wolves look like complete ass, but they're right there with the Grizz. Good defense, I guess?

23. Is it just me, or is this excruciating to watch?

    1. Yes

    2. The good news is that we get Love back next game.

    3. its like watching a Big Ten game

24. less Brad Miller, more Pek!

    1. Less SCB, more that fat dude in the 3rd row with the foam hat and the beer.

       1. I'm gonna start calling him JBR? for "Jesus, Beasley, really?"

25. This game is just... arrgh.

26. That's 5 straight quarters now when they can't make a jump shot. I blame spooky.

    1. I forgive, but I don't forget.

       Also, I don't forgive.

27. So without looking at the stat line, I think the Wolves are shooting 3/639 this quarter.

    1. Its 3/640, but good guess.

    2. Only 7 turnovers!

28. oh man do the Wolve miss Love rebounding ability tonight

29. That was absolutely brutal

    1. 34 point half. Yikes.

30. So, evidently playing in Sacramento one night and then in Memphis 24 hours later is not conducive to good basketball.

    1. I thought they were in Minny last night.

       1. You're right. Therefore, the Wolves have no excuse.

          1. I think the bigger problem is that they had to go to Memphis, which makes everything suck.

31. I was thinking of watching, but my first favorite domain in all the rows has been shut down. Seems good that I'm missing it...

    1. I'm pretty sure FSN is showing a classic Wolves game from last year.

    2. oh,

       first

       then

       row

       then

       sports

       dot

       eu

    3. Maybe eu could find it somewhere other than tv.

32. Awesome quote from the Grizz assistant coach when asked what their defense was doing well.

    "Well, they're missing a lot of shots right now."

33. So clearly, the Wolves learned from last night and are attempting to get the shitty shooting out of the way in the first half.

    1. They're on shooting strike until Spooky apologizes for jinxing them.

       1. My only question is was it Spooky jinxing them or bhiggum (?) saying that Spooky jinxed them?

          1. We're shooting 29%, I'd say there's plenty of blame to go around.

             1. Sacrifice the newbie?

                

                1. vote Philosofer

                   If he's a villager, then it proves spooky is a wolf.

          2. Not me! Cheaptoy's misattributing again!

             1. Oh, sorry about that, it was greekhouse. No wonder he deflected my question.

                1. At least you put in the (?). Spooky would have just lynched me.

                2. Hey, I just need to point out that the Wolves have been doing much better since we started blaming bhiggum.

                   1. And now you start blaming me and the Wolves start to suck again. What more proof do you need?

                      vote bhiggum

                   2. If that's what it takes, I'm all for it. Damn spooky jinx.

             2. I misread "misattributing" as "masturbating." I was wondering what the hell I missed.

                1. The cycle continues...

                   1. You're all welcome.

                2. If we have to explain what you're missing, then you really aren't a red-blooded American male.

34. I guess the Wolves have decided their shooting is so poor that they'd rather just forgo shooting entirely.

35. So can we play another wolf game so we don't have to watch this?

    1. I'm in.

36. Yeah, hey, let me know if this thing gets any closer. I've got competent things to watch tonight.

    1. 'Happy Endings' on ABC ?

       1. Modern Family then the rest of Finding Nemo.

37. the Wolves are shooting 29%. puke

38. If you had told me at the beginning of the game that Luke wouldn't make his first basket until halfway through the 3rd quarter and we'd still only be down by 12, I would have said, "Dammit, Luke."

    1. This is all my fault. I picked him up in the fantasy league on Monday, so naturally he'd fall of a cliff of ass.

39. PEK DUNK!

40. They probably shouldn't have showed the clip of Mauer hitting the ball into the dirt. Off a tee.

    1. He was practicing his plate approach for when they play the Tigers.

41. A few dunks will help our shooting percentage.

42. Well, the refs are starting to piss me off. "Steal" by Conley with a reach and a lot of body, shot clock violation with Pek getting knocked sideways, Pek fouled on the dunk and no continuation. Yuck.

    1. That shot clock violation was ridiculous. I'm not sure if he got it off in time or not, but if he didn't, it's because he was getting shoved.

       1. That's exactly how I saw it.

43. If you need something to take your mind off of how poorly the Wolves are shooting, you might start paying attention to how poorly they're rebounding.

44. Started a turbo post over at casa de leche for anyone interested.

    1. We've got six- anyone else tired of watching Wolves brick shots?

    2. This means you, cheaps.

       1. I wish I could, but I gotta get to bed within the hour. I've got a long day ahead of me tomorrow.

          1. I've been to Alabama. You may see a Wal-mart there.

             1. Oh, that's not until Monday. Tomorrow I've got a regular work day followed by drinking curling.

                1. The wolves just need one more quarter to catch up.

                   1. No, this doesn't make sense as a reply here.

45. That was quite the travel by Pargo. How the hell do the refs miss that one?

46. Rubio has been on the bench a lot this quarter

    1. He hasn't played like Rubio.

    2. Meh. Give him some rest.

       1. Yeah, this game was a give-away. Get Ricky rested up to play with Love the next game.

47. Beasley padding the stats with a late game foul.

    1. And a late, late game three.
