Very good on the Wolves for their definitive win against the Rockets last night, but I'll join the rest of the gang that's missing Rubio. Here's a solid jazz performance for the solid Jazz performance that was lead by that dashing Spaniard and his dazzling triple double.

Loading... A grizzled Rubio waits...
This is the last game before the All Star break. Pek! will try to make it a go with a bum ankle, but how far down is Anthony Randolph in the doghouse? from the Stribs Jerry Zgoda

Expect Pekovic to give it a go and start tonight. Randolph and Lee are the inactives tonight vs. Jazz
Randolph's last game was Feb 2 when he played 12 minutes and scored 8 points
I had to take a small nap during half time last night that extended about 8 minutes into the third quarter but I watched the end of the game last night on East Coast time. I think I am really falling for this team. As many of you on the site know I have always considered myself and "NBA fan" but never really had an affiliation towards a team until I started hanging out in these parts. Seeing Stick's love of the Wolves, warts and all, was kind of contagious and I started to monitor the team a little more closely. And though I am still looking for proof, there are rumors that I said I would move to the Twin Cities if the Wolves drafted Rubio in 2009. Well, the Wolves drafted Rubio and while I am still here in Buffalo, I am watching this team with much more interest than I have watched with any of my local teams in some time.
I know I volunteered myself to the Wolves last season when I made my formal decision to take my fandom to the Twin Cities. But I will admit, as the season wore on, my interest waned. I found myself watching more Oklahoma City, Trailblazers, or Heat games than anything else.. This season, well, I don't think I am going to run into that problem.
Bonus points for a Wolves win tonight as Minnesota has Utah's first round pick in the next draft!
