Dang! PatBev must of heard I bumped the Bulls down to the bottom tier... They are thumping Denver in Denver. I should probably remove them from the tanking group.

We didn't get any help from anyone last night, but we also maintained our large cushion over the teams that won't make the playoffs as every team held serve. Tonight I'm cheering for the Knicks against the Kings, the Griz at home against the Warriors, and the Magic against the Jazz.

Here is the sheet from my KOM spreadsheet for the Wolves. It shows a win at the Bulls, but I might need to take the Bulls out of the Bottom Tier if they build upon their win at Denver...

On a side note: Durant is out for a number of weeks with an ankle sprain (it really looked weird), but I have not dropped the Suns out of the Top Tier, yet. Mo Bamba is out for weeks with a high ankle sprain. Luka is dealing with a hammy that had him exit early last night. And Ingram had to leave early, too, with an ankle issue (I have not seen an update on his status, yet). Is Q's Luck Buffer filling up?

Rumors are KD might be out for the regular season because of slipping on the court pre game

Kuminga rolled an ankle in pre-game warmups as well. Guess it's time to get rid of pre-game warmups!

It's only one half, but good to see the Griz playing well against the Warriors. The KOM has the Warriors sneaking into the play-in. I hope that don't suddenly find themselves!

Two positives about the Wolves chances of having some success in the playoffs:

1) While we have crapped the bed throughout the season against bad teams (both BC and AD), we are not going to face any bad teams in the playoffs, and we have been quite solid against teams over .500. We are 3-3 AD, and were even close to .500 BC. Only 5 other teams can boast that.

2) We have done that mostly without KAT. There are no reports that KAT is not going to return this season, so the Wolves might be adding a significant piece to a rotation that is already playing even with winning teams.

Let's go!

I hurt myself stretching once. NEVER AGAIN!

And also avoid pre-game layup drills...very dangerous. The Suns would still have Durant if he hadn't risked life and limb in the layup line.

Obviously, the only solution to this is fewer games and more load management. They shouldn't have been out there warming up!!!!

Another solution is no games. That's what I've been doing and the crazy thing is I've been making more money while I haven't even been playing!
