It was nice that the Wolves and Warriors lost last night and too bad that the Jazz ended up pulling out a win over the Celtics.

The West standings still have 7-12 separated by only two games. It's nuts.

Makes it even more frustrating that we’ve been complete arse in 3 of our 4 perfectly winnable games this week…

We’d be up to 6th with 3 more perfectly winnable games on the immediate horizon ..39 & 34 and Zion coming back… we’d all be MUCH happier.

Good news: Timberwolves All-Star Anthony Edwards has exited a walking boot and is moving around more as swelling decreases in ankle sprain suffered Friday, per sources. Edwards is expected to be evaluated day-to-day on a return.


If Anthony edwards return before Zion…

I just saw a video of him at shoot around. He was wearing a big, bulky hoodie. But he looked thicker. I just don't get how this keeps happening. He should be slimming down..

Not getting any better either.

Looking at going 0-4 for outcomes that would have helped us tonight.

Memphis pulled out the win against the Mavs, and the Kings and Jazz are now tied in the 3rd quarter, so we could still go 2-4.

2-2 would be a miracle after the way it was looking earlier

the bench played well in the 4th quarter come back.
aldama had 18 and 14 (adams still out).

This week makes or breaks a lot...

GSW 37-36
@ Dallas
vs Philly
- both can be potential losses

Dallas 36-36
vs GSW
vs Charlotte
- They can stay afloat

Minnesota 36-37
vs Atlanta
- I thought Ant = they'd lose, but they get some damn good shooting by backups tonight in a much needed win
- I think they lose this one though

OKC 35-36
@LAC x2
@LAL
- they run this, they're in. I hope they go 1-2 with both losses to LAC.

Utah 35-36
vs Portland
vs Milwaukee
@ Sacramento
- frick Utah is all I have to say. I think they go 1-2.

LA Lakers 35-37
vs Phoenix
vs OKC
- They split this IMHO

New Orleans 34-37
vs SAS
vs Charlotte
@ LAC
- This will make or break our season. Win 2/3, we're fine. Lose 2/3 or 3/3 and we're fricked. Win 3/3 and we can leapfrog into the driver seat.

The only thing I don't know how it keeps happening is how you and others constantly think Zion got super fat while he's out based on a couple of videos of him with sweatshirts on.


That's been said after his last couple of injuries, and each time he's returned almost immediately after magically not all kinds of fat like it keeps being said.

No clue how Sacramento lost to Utah without their main players

8 guys in double figures for Utah.
agbaji had a very nice game to lead them.
the 6 7 Italian sub for markkanen was good enough.
Kessler held up inside.

I have no idea what's the matter with markkenen.
edit. "back soreness."
expected to play tonight in the 2nd of b2b.

Key games tonight:

Warriors @ Mavericks

I'm not really sure who to root for in that one. GSW is half a game up on DAL, but the Warriors have a much tougher schedule to finish the season than the Mavs do.


Hawks @ T-Wolves
Blazers @ Jazz
Suns @ Lakers

There's a high probability that all three of these games go against us. The Wolves, Jazz, and Lakers should all be favored.
