3 Games Left In The Wilderness - Kings at Wolves GDT
Posted: Mon Feb 03, 2025 10:42 am
Okay, I am sticking with the corny "In The Wilderness" theme, waiting for the damn trade deadline. It's really only 2 games left before the trade deadline, but I decided to include the game on the day of the trade deadline in the calculus.
When I decided to trek on into the Wilderness, I was hoping the Wolves could stay afloat playing .500 ball. And here we are with a 5-1 record since my Wilderness adventure began. That's pretty good! Except the one loss was at the start of a 5-game home stand against the lowly Wizards. But I'll accept the excuse we were just too undermanned.
We don't know who will be healthy tonight. Randle and DDV are clearly out. I assume ANT will be back, and NAZ is a mystery. The Kings will be without Fox, Huerter and JMac, and I assume LaVine will not suit up. The Wolves have already exceeded my .500 ball wish, but I am feeling greedy. Winning 3 of the next 4 games is pretty important for keeping pace with making the playoffs, not just the play-in. And I wouldn't mind winning 4 straight...
You never know when the Randle trade may drop. We are still waiting for Butler to be moved. And anything that might involve the Warriors likely waits until the 5th when Schroder can be included in a trade. But I'll be keeping my eye on my X feed!
