Good podcast, thanks for posting the link.

They brought up my guy Jared Dudley as a guy to watch as we approach the trade deadline! I'd love him on the squad.


Dudley is a guy I would like as well. It will be interesting the next few weeks to see where the gap is between the teams that are below the 8th seed and how many of them there are. Last year it seemed that there was not a lot of separation and teams were less willing to make moves. Now the deadline is sooner and yeah it will be interesting to see how it plays out. I'd also guess that the buyout market will materialize quicker this year than before because of the trade deadline happening sooner. The Wolves could be in good shape to get a player there.

He's MY guy.

I've been wearing his letter jacket since before he even signed in Phoenix!

You have me beat but I do have a Boston College hat because of Dudley and Craig Smith.

Good night so far for the Wolves. The Spurs and Pelicans lost to Eastern Conference teams tonight. The Blazers are losing to the Hawks in the 4th and the Sixers are hanging with the Nuggets so far in the 1st quarter.

Yup, I was just checking on scores myself and noticed all the good results. Let's hope the Sixers can pull this one out.

Not looking so good for the Sixers now. Of all the teams behind us in the standings, the Nuggets are the team I fear the most. They're hanging with us with Millsap out and after Jokic missed a number of games. Millsap will be returning and the Nuggets just seem to be getting better.

I think I saw that the Sixers are like 1-7 without Embiid. The Nuggets have had some young players step up this year which needed to happen. They have been able to get by with Barton basically playing as the backup PG. Their overall depth has really helped them stay in the hunt. It's maybe worth mentioning they have been only playing 8 guys during this last stretch. It's nice we have back to back wins against them. Hopefully the Sixers make it a game and come back...down 1 with 4 mins left in the 3rd.

Edit: Sweet the Sixers came back and won that one. The Nuggets only managed to score 41 points in the 2nd half. I didn't watch any of the game just kept checking the score every once in a while.

Scored 38 points, with 10 three pointers.

I still hate the way/style Steph Curry plays basketball.
