    Lowry is better. Lowry is insanely good.

    That being said, I honestly think Minnesota has a shot at making the playoffs. I'm not sure about the Rockets right now.

    He's like the NBA version of Cam Newton. :)

    Did Cam ever have his own "Official" thread in the Football forum? Maybe more like Tebow?

    Rubio has some high bball IQ, but its such a pity he has to play with low bball IQ players like Beasley, Randolph, Johnson and Darko.

    Honestly, I have no idea what's going on with Johnson and Beasley right now. Johnson is so talented, good shot, very athletic, solid D, but at the moment, he simply sucks. He needs to step up.
    And Beasley can't buy a bucket right now. When he misses a few shots in a row, he gets frustrated and forces it, which makes things only worse. But Beasley can be a solid 3 putting up ~15ppg, but in order to do that, he needs to stop playing selfishly.

    Other than that, the Wolves look pretty good right now. With a little bit of luck, they could have been 3-1 instead of 1-3. If they keep playing like these and improve over the season while incorporating Adelman's system, I think they have a realistic chance of making the playoffs. If they don't, I'm pretty sure they'll at least have a significantly better record than last year.

    Darko is playing okayish. He actually gives a crap.
    Wesley Johnson has some self-confidence issues, his body language makes it obvious. His hesitates too much before shooting, passing, everything. He is a good kid, so I hope he recovers. He has a lot to do...

    Minnesota needs Kevin Martin badly. Kevin Martin would instantly make that team a playoff team, if not maybe a 5th or 6th seed. Given their lack of a 1st round pick, I wonder if the Rockets can pry Derick Williams from them. Something like KMart+NY pick(maybe some others to sweeten the deal) for Williams.

    I wish we could unban OHMSS for just a week so we can rag on him for saying Rubio is the worst Euroleague pg in the history of Euroleague basketball. I have never hated someone online as much as I've hated that guy.

    They could use Kmart or CBud, they need a guy who moves without the ball and is a catch and shoot scorer.
