Wolves vs Grizz - GDT - BAREA IS INACTIVE TONIGHT!

[Volans19]

I thought I'd start the thread early with the great news that JJ will not be playing tonight. Looks like we'll see Shved running point, for better or worse at least it's different.

Are you sure he isn't going to start Robbie Hummel there?

[Volans19]

Either that or he'll have Rubio play all 48

In Rick's mind, this is still a must win game.

I hope we win!

Big opportunity for Shved to show what he can do at point guard. Challenging night for him because of the Grizzlies' defense and his lack of time at PG his year...not to mention the quality of the players who will be on the court with him.

I'm also mildly interested to see who Adelman will play at backup SG with Barea out, but I assume it will be Bud :( .

Looks like Shabazz has jumped Budinger on the depth chart. Just as a side note, Dave Benz ALWAYS attributes the foul to the wrong player and it is driving me insane

Plus Shabazz gets early minutes with Brew in foul trouble. Let's see what he can do with Ricky rather than his usual JJ pairing, and let's also see if he and Love can stay out of each others' way on the left block.

I'd like to think that, volans, but I think Bud will back up Martin with JJ out.

From a 40 point first quarter to barely breaking double digits
