    Kevin Love's scoring is pretty much meaningless for the T-Wolve's win percentage.

    Going over their game logs this year - his team wins at 0.22 rate when he scores under 20 points and at 0.25 rate when he scores over 30 (probably a little higher with tonight's win - I did not check it).

    In comparison - since Roy went down - the Blazers have a 0.318 win rate when LMA scores under 20, 1.000 when he scores 20-29, 0.8 when he scores 30+ (one loss, 31 points against the Heat, a pretty good team)

    Kevin Love is a nice player - but if you want to get him over LMA - you need your head examined. One of them can carry a team, the other can't.

    What is up with NO?

    They go on some insane tear winning 8 or so games in a row. Then they go on a losing streak losing 4 in a row including to losing to Minny at home and then tonight to NJ.

    It would be great if we could pass them in the standings in the 2nd half of the season. We increase our draft pick while moving up a spot in the playoff race.

    Note: Clevland; 26 and counting

    Interesting game: Chicago vs. Utah

    -Rose vs. Williams

    -Boozer, Korver and Brewer all playing against thier former team.

    Go Chicago

    Also I think Denver has a tough game at GS this evening

    Utah goes down


    Blazers gaining ground without even playing . . . not quite as fun as a win by the Blazers, but Blazers resting and Utah and NO falling back.

    The Bulls do us a favor by winning in Salt Lake!

    You know the Blazers beating the Bulls gave the Bulls that much more motivation to win the next one.

    Double bonus beating Chicago. :D

    NO- 22 losses
    UTA- 23 losses
    DEN- 23 losses

    POR- 24

    PHX- 25
    MEM- 26

    With our upcoming road trip @ TOR, DET, and MIN, we might be able to stay at 24 right before our matchup vs. NOH in the last game before the AS break.

    Jesus. 28/11 and probably all within three feet of the basket. Man, we could use that coming off the bench backing Aldridge or starting next to him with all our injuries.

    What have you got against the kid. We took a guy that has one leg shorter than the other and made him explode all over the court - can you imagine what would have happened to a guy with no ACLs?
