That is outstanding news! Every analyst I listened to yesterday were saying going into the crowd would result in at least 3 games. This is best case for sure!

There's a theory going around that the NBA waited so long to announce this because they wanted to give Minnesota a chance to appeal. They will lose the appeal, but be able to play it tonight on national television against the Nuggets

Could be, Bloop. But Shams is reporting Donte is out for the Denver game. ESPN also has him out. Line moved from Denver - 2 1/2 to - 3 1/2. I still think we have a chance tonight, but missing two of our best 3-point threats will be tough to overcome.

We need to stop Aaron Gordon....that's the player I'm most concerned about tonight

Exactly what I was thinking.

Does anyone know if you appeal, if the NBA can hand out a worse sentence, make it 2-3 games on appeal?
