    T-Wolves are the opposite of the Pels. They play defense but their offense is totally off kilter. Watching them self-destruct down the stretch in the first game was mind-blowing.

    Second night of a back to back at home against a team coming off a Christmas high. Hopefully the crowd shows up and we get a win.

    Go rockets!

    Are the T'Wolves really coming off a high? I know they won, but they still damn near blew a 28-point lead in Dallas. The Mavs were only down 2 and had a chance to win the game near the end.

    I hope Tari is back and we were only resting him to get teams interested in Tate.

    Excited to see if Green can get it going with Edwards out there. I'm also interested in seeing if Cam can provide his extra spark of offense but play under control against the Wolves.

    Naz Reid, Julius Randle, and Rudy Gobert are a lot of size/strength on their front line. Curious to see how Jabari looks against them.

    Guess we'll have to keep waiting for that Thompson, Green, Whitmore, Eason, Sengun/Jabari lineup.

    Should be a race to 100 points because the first one to get there will win the game.

    Always playing rested teams on the 2nd game of a back to back is getting old.
