    They will definitely have their hands full with Love who is 4th in scoring and 2nd in rebounding.


    Oh and a welcome back to Adelman.

    Probably a loss. McHale will probably overplay Lin 50+ minutes to compensate for the Dallas game, ensuring a loss due to fatigue.

    McHale will be out coached.

    And we're a much better team than the Blazers, who are 2nd in the West @ 11-2.

    The Spurs are 1st @ 11-1 ... because, ya know, they are the Spurs.

    Well, at this point our offense IS our defense, by getting the other team's stars into foul trouble, they won't score as much.

    Until we develop a cohesive team defense, that's really all we can do is attack their defense at the other end.

    Jones vs Love is gonna be similar to the time Bev played against CP3 (i.e., questionable starters vs all-stars). We may squeak out a win, but I wouldn't be surprised if we got blown out.

    Again, why we fire Adelman? We had a mediocre roster at that time.

    Adelman was happy with his mediocre roster and always whined when Morey wanted to improve it...

    Something like that...

    Not for me because no matter how hard they played and how together they played at times even at their best they were a 8th seed.

    Jeremy Lin taking 5 shots and only scoring 1 pt is unacceptable. I hope he comes out swinging.

    Bold prediction?

    T.Jones will have more rebounds than K.Love.

    The problem isn't us losing. We very much might win this game. The wolves are on a back 2 back. The problem is if we will see the same type of problems come up. Poor awareness on defense, in ability to score in the 4th leading to comebacks from teams, and just straight up poor coaching. We're not winning anything until this changes.
