Sports night catch all post

another doubleheader sports night in Minnesota

NBA: Portland @ Minnesota 7pm FSN+

If you missed it Saturday, here is Ricky Rubio doing Ricky Rubio things. Saturday was probably the best game the Wolves have played all year. They got out to a huge 1st quarter lead, extended it to over 30 points at times, and cruised to a win.

NHL: Minnesota @ Phoenix 8pm FSN

The Wild made a trade today

Late night sports thread

LA Lakers @ Minnesota 8:30pm
TV: ESPN, My29

a modest win streak has place the Lakers (10) ahead of the slumping Wolves (12) in the West. The Wolves come in with a healthier roster than this time last week, but also have a 5 game losing streak. Speaking of losing streaks, the Lakers have beat the Wolves 19 straight times (and 23 out 24). the roster from the last Wolves win is amazing.

Minnesota Wild @ Anaheim Ducks 9:00pm
TV: FSN

Saku Koivu -v- Mikko Koivu . Also, Teemu Selanne is still playing.

2012-13 Game Logs: Timberwolves @ Heat

A wise a man once said low expectations are the easiest to meet. Well citizens, expectations are low tonight. 4th game in 5 nights. No Rubio. Kevin Love is having digestive problems. Oh, and the Wolves are playing the Heat tonight.

On the bright side, I don't think we have to worry about blowing a 15 point lead. With that said, I'd love the chance to blow a 15 point lead against the Heat.

2012-13 Game Logs: Game 21 Dallas @ Minnesota

I found an e-mail Kevin Love sent last week. It was cute. He changed the lyrics of a song and sent them to Ricky.

Good morning to you I hope you're feeling better, baby
Thinking of me while you are far away
Counting the days until your free to pass again
Writing this e-mail, hoping you're okay

Saved you the lockert you used to dress in every Sunday
The one that is warmed by sunshine every day
And we'll get to know each other for a second time
And then you can tell me 'bout your rehab stay

Feels so good you're coming home soon

It's gonna to be good to have you back again with me
Watching the laughter play around your eyes
Come up and fetch you, alley oop passes are so money
Kissing just the net will be so nice

Feels so good you're coming home soon

Running the way we used to run
And it could be so nice
Dunking the way we used to dunk
And it could be so nice

Feels so good you're coming home soon

Feels so good you're coming home soon

Soon is now. Rubio plays tonight. The playoff push begins. It is time to enjoy basketball again.
