1. I'm enjoying my first Red Chair and watching the Last Waltz while waiting for the game to start.

   1. Woooo! I have a couple of Red Chairs (faaaaaaar from my first) waiting for me to stop being sick.

2. If Beas plays well again tonight I think we have chance to unload him for something decent.

   1. If Beas plays well again tonight I will start to get excited for a playoff run.

3. So it turns out Kobe is going to play with a concussion. Still no word as to if this will make him shoot more or less.

4. according to Jerry Zgoda, no Kevin Love, out with the flu. Anthony Randolph (who?) is activated, Derrick Williams might start

5. The Wolves line opened this morning at Minnesota +4.5. With Kobe playing now and Love out I have a feeling that line is going to end closer to Minnesota +8/8.5.

   It will make the upset all the sweeter.

   1. I like it.

      1. i'm pretty sure urkel is the shooter this team is missing.

         1. I can just picture him dunking over Bynum, knocking him over and then getting in his face and saying, "Did I do that?"

   2. That is too awesome for words.

7. I wish a NBA player wearing the broken nose mask would just paint it silver to make themselves look like MF Doom. It would be 10x cooler.

   1. MF Kobe drops dimes like rhymes

8. Free trial of League Pass this week. For some reason the Wolves broadcast is blacked out. I know that the Wolves announcers aren't very good, but dammit, they're my not very good announcers.

   1. I'm just going to listen to the audio for a change. The video stream isn't worth the aggravation.

   2. can you get that over the internet, or only through cable?

      1. I think it's just through DirecTV.

         1. boooooooo.

9. Kobe looks like a dork.

10. Wolves go from the Muskies jersey to the all blacks

    1. I like the all blacks.

11. Luke Ridnour guarding Metta W.Peace. heh

    1. Didn't we all agree to call him Metta World Colonoscopy last time the Wolves played the Lakers?

12. Rubio is attacking the basket. That's generally something I love, but man, those shots just are not in his skill set yet.

13. It would be just great if D-Will could eventually settle into a small forward role.

14. Go Wesley!

15. Down by 10. Just where we want them.

16. oh boy....gotta keep this close

17. Obligatory baserunner crappy start.

18. So far, it appears this wasn't the night to stop being too sick to watch.

    1. To be fair, this is about the standard way the Wolves start games.

19. LAL guy after Webster's shot: "They've got some shooters!"

20. Can we be happy getting out of the first quarter only down by eight? I say yes.

21. I am just going to go to bed now and assume the Wolves come back and win.

22. Bynum might have Darko outmatched.

23. ...darko?

24. Oh good, our bench hasn't cooled off yet.

25. Michael Eaves is a much better Robbie than Robbie.

    1. Really, their whole broadcast team is pretty darn good. I retract my previous disappointment.

    2. a bear with a microphone is better than Robbie Inc

26. That's quite the lineup the Lakers are sporting right now- Bynum, Barnes, Blake, Murphy and whatever a Goudelock is.

27. *facepalm*

28. that looked pretty super cool, at least.

29. So far the main difference between the Lakers and the Clippers is that the Lakers can make their outside shots.

30. Steve Blake yikes

31. Since when does Kobe get four assists in a game, much less in a half? Are we sure it's really Kobe?

    1. Kobey Briant

       1. i think he's trying to shoot, but the mask is really messing up his shots.

          1. Imagine what Rubio could do with a Mask of Assists +5! Of course, if it gives him a -10% on his FG shooting, it might not be worth it.

32. Pek racking up the offensive boards

33. not sure if charge.

    1. Yeah, that was a charge. I didn't want it to be, but it was.

    2. I think it was more Williams was out of control

       1. Was he though? I think Fisher just got set.

34. Pek laying in the the elbows on Gasol. ha!

35. That quarter was much better.

36. only down by 6...nice

37. That mask makes me want to punch Kobe in the face even more than usual.

    1. Also, it makes me want to punch Wes in the face.

38. Not a great start.

39. this is not a good start to the quarter

40. Wiliams was fouled on the 3 attempt, no call

    1. There's a lot to complain about right now, but I think most of it is poor play by the Wolves.

       1. Of course, it doesn't help that they're missing Love.

       2. I agree, but that was in the wide open space, just surprised it wasnt called

          1. Yeah. The Wolves are definitely the away team.

41. Even if we lose this game, at least Rubio made Fisher look stupid.

42. oh my goodness, Pek! wiped out Fisher on a screen

43. This game is a very very good reminder of how good Kevin Love is.

44. Jim Peterson sounds angry tonight

45. I think the comeback chances just left town

46. This game is turrible. I'm going to bed.

    1. i'll keep it on, but i'll be damned if i pay any attention until they claw within 6.

    2. Yep. Play the scrubs. Get ready for tomorrow.

47. got it under 20!

48. lineup on the floor in the last seconds: Rubio, Ellington, Tolliver, D. Williams, Randolph
