The last basketball game of the calendar year is a big one. Minnesota (15-15)is looking to make a move in the standings after a up and down 2 months and Dallas (17-13) is right in front of them.
Every time I see Dallas play, I say 'that guy is still in the league?!'. Tonight, I will say that about Wayne Ellington.
This game is the first of a three game home stand for the Wolves, their first of the season. The schedule makers really have not been kind to home locals.
Sweet outlet.
Corey Brewer should stop shooting the ball.
Rubio doesn't bother to shoot anymore, why should Corey get to?
Wow, Brewer is teh suck.
Kevin Love is abusing the Mavs defense.
Marion's playing like he's 50 again.
Shved block? ! whoa!
I think the Mavs have gotten half of their points off of Wolves bobbling passes.
Despite the second unit's best efforts to have this game blown wide open, the Wolves are still down only 3.
They're still trying.
Shawn. Marion. good gravy
SO MANY TURNOVERS!!!!!!!!
Who is (supposed to be) guarding Marion? Should be Brewer, right? Oh, probably Martin, never mind.

Yikes.
I just finished my lift. Time to go shower. I expect it to be no more than a 10 point lead when I get done.
Close!
I just had to go back to shave to make it under 10. π
that is more like it!
OH SHIZZLE!!!
So this are improving? I've been working on the dreaded post Christmas clean up while chasing a toddler and haven't been able to check in much.
Cor3y Br3w3r
4 three!!!
or two. Whatevs.
Kevin Love is one helluva drug!
Great quarter or greatest quarter?
Love is close to having a 30+/10+/5+ game. amazing.
Like.
Following the game vicariously through you guys had worked so far, so I'll keep doing that.
Whatever you're doing, it's working! Just stop doing whatever you did during the first half.
Housework in the first half. Makes sense that it would suck.
Yeah, go drink a beer, you've earned it.
Done and done!
The super slowmo on that offensive foul was awesome. Love is just getting a face full of crotch.
That sounds like it would make an awesome fathead.
he took one for the team
Jim Pete getting fired up about the twitter hate on Kevin Love. good for him!
There's Twitter hate on Kevin Love? That would be a excellent litmus test to decide who to follow.
I think this thread set him off
That's pretty gross. It's like no one has learned anything despite having the internet.
Yeah, the 'Kevin Love is a stat compiler' line of reasoning is ignorant at best, but more in the 'you shouldnt be watching basketball anymore' camp.
Someone should be glued to Marion. Why is he wide open ALL THE TIME?!!?!
It's not our fault. It's hard to get close enough to contest with his walker in the way.
Pek to Love (mini) alley oop
oh my god
Nice alley oop by Pek!. Love should have gotten the and-one on that, too.
Shouldn't that be a foul on Calderon?
The refs were pretty good until about 4 minutes left in the game. They have no clue whats going on now.
I wrote this 5 minutes before the final play.
It's as true now as it was then!
Nuts and bolts
Nuts and bolt
We got screwed
OMFG
Went to CH to see if anyone has gifed it yet. Good lord, this league...
Also, to make it worse, I accidentally read maynholup posts. Ugh.
you gotta listen to Alan Horton's call of the ending (roughly 70 seconds wroth of audio)
MALLOY!!!!
So I guess the Wolves will just have to settle for 66-16!
