Wolves vs. the Wounded Warriors

Post by FNG »

Most of us have looked at the next 4 games, and worried that it could be a season killer. And it's pretty clear we will be underdogs in all 4 (and maybe 5, if you included the home game against Philly). But some of the luck we need may be happening, because the Warriors will be without Curry and Wiggins (out for personal reasons) and perhaps Green too who missed the last game (as well as two great defenders in Payton and Igoudala. Vegas has us as 2 1/2 point dogs, but I think this is one we have to win. The Warriors may start Kuminga, Looney, Thompson, DiVencinzo, and Poole. That is a starting lineup that is not nearly as good as the Hornets team we just faced, and not nearly as good as our starters. Klay carried them last game against Houston, but he will have Jaden on him all game in this one. I think we are going to start this crucial road trip with an upset win, and move a game ahead of the Warriors. Let's frickin go, Wolves!

Good point, kek. And even though we know much can change in the final few weeks of the season, my spreadsheet has the Wolves at 41 wins and GS at 40 if we win tonight...that's the difference between a home play in game and a road game. But the tiebreaker could prove to be critical too.

What the hell happened against the Hornets?!?

On a side note, Dlo had his seasonal injury the other day with a "mild" MCL and calf strain, and a bone bruise to boot.

He tweaked his ankle the other night, but everything I've seen said it was mild and could miss just one game. Looked minimal upon replay as well. Haven't seen anything about MCL and calf strains, and a bone bruise.

I know the internet is a little slow in Chile, Tim, but 6 years slow :shock: ???

We laid a turd against the Hornets, and I'm $300 poorer for the privilege of having watched it...let's just say drivers were a little surly post-game in the half hour it took to get out of Parking Ramp A!

Big game tonight...we'll try to do a better job leading this team in your absence.

G League game. Wolves missing two starters and 2 reserves, Warriors missing 3 key starters. Anybody's guess what happens tonight.
