Loading... Minnesota did their best to do a 2010-11 Timberwolves impression last night in giving away a 4th quarter lead. The main problem for the Wolves last night was Emeka Okafor being unguarded by Anthony Randolph for much of the game last night. Thankfully, Al Horford is going to be out for (likely) the rest of the season leaving Zaza Pachulia as Atlanta's starting center.
Here is a weird gambling fact about tonight's game:
Road team is 9-1-1 ATS in the last 11 meetings.
The Wolves are 7.5 point dogs tonight against a Al Horford-less Hawks team. I appreciate these teams having their better players injured to give the Wolves a chance while Beasley is out. It is mighty sporting of them.

Ladies and gentlemen, behold the Milestone Comment plaques.
I think I can speak for everyone who comes to this place in saying that we are pretty luck to have the wgom. As we all know, places like the wgom don't grow on trees. Like trees however, the wgom need to be watered by money to grow. Check out the sticky note to your left to help keep the wgom existing.

Eric Gordon is out tonight for the Hornets. The Wolves will be without Beasley. So I figure that is about even. Or not.

There are still a lot of improvements to be made but this team is a lot better than last season. Or at least it feels a lot better than a 3-7 team.
