    Harden 60 points!

    Plus a personal 16-0 run in the 4th quarter to put the game away.

    I'd be surprised if they get this one. For some reason, the NBA always makes them play in Minneapolis the next night after a home game. So even without being shorthanded, they'd be exhausted.

    That being said, the T'Wolves did play last night, they got smoked by the Wizards, and Wiggins may be out. So it's still a winnable game despite the injuries.

    For some reason i have a bad feeling about this game...maybe it's because we lost one or two games in Minnie last season playing like trash, hopefully i'm wrong.

    House - 50/50
    Westbrook - OUT
    Chandler - Probably OUT (B2B)
    Capela - OUT
    Gordon - OUT
    Green - OUT
    Nene - OUT

    Austin Rivers - Chris Clemons

    Ben McLemore
    P.J. Tucker - Thabo Sefolosha - Gary Clark
    Isaiah Hartenstein - Ryan Anderson

    For some strange reason, Twolves kinda owned us last year. Going to be tough to win this game with the injuries and it being a back to back.

    Agreed, I'd almost write this one off as a schedule loss.

    Clark should be good for six fouls on KAT. Good time to experiment

    I hope the pasty white Minnesota fans wear sunscreen tonight to the game because Harden is so hot right now they might all leave with sunburned faces if they don't.

    I'd love to see someone make a Photoshop picture of James holding up a bench with one hand for this game.

    We're going to see Harden surpass Kobe's 81 tonight.

    Gonna be tough to win this one if we are short all the players we appear we may be without. I really hate that Harden has to be on the court so much in every game in order for us to win, I know he may be one of the most durable players in the NBA (especially by today’s “load management” standards) but man once again the usage on the guy is just astronomical and it’s only the beginning of the season

    So. No Capela, Gordon, House tonight, right? WB going to take this night off? I thought he was going to take the Pacers game off, and then saw him play.

    Even if no Wiggins, which might be bonus for Minny anyway, this will be a toughie with their size.
