    You mean General Zod Pekovic?

    Let's hope LA makes Pekovic look like another character played by Terence Stamp

    It's the NBA. Anything can happen on a given night. I expect a high-scoring and fun game, and Love and LMA to try and show who's boss.

    Minnesota is 4-6 in the 2nd of a B2B game this season (wins over Utah, Boston, Philly, and @ Milwaukee)

    Twolves are the only team in the NBA with a +1 or better point differential (+5) who also do not have a record better than .500. Below is an explanation for why:

    Minn has won by an average of 25 points in 11 of their 20 wins this season.

    19 over OKC without Westbrook at home, 2nd game of the season
    23 over LAL on the road
    29 over Cleveland at home
    18 over Boston at home
    30 over Brooklyn at home
    27 over Detroit on the road
    22 over Wash at home
    22 over Mil on the road
    31 over Philly on the road
    27 over Char at home
    26 over Utah at home

    Minnesota is also 1-10 in games decided by 4 or less. They have not shown an ability to defend when it matters, or close out games with any significant success all season. It's been blow out or bust.

    But hey, Rubio made his first 4th quarter basket in 19 games, so they've got that going for them.

    Fucking NBA tv blackout my league pass again. It's bullshit to pay for something and you don't get the service.

    Who was the biggest All-Star starter snub?
    LaMarcus Aldridge 44% ( next most votes - Chris Paul 22%) 50k total votes cast

    Should LaMarcus Aldridge be an All-Star starter?
    Yes 76% - 24k votes cast

    I guess China doesn't vote on ESPiN's Sports Nation

    Doesn't matter... it's blacked out pretty much nationally.

    Whenever NBA TV does a game, it's always the home announcers.

    Do refs hate it when players like Brewer obviously kick the ball OOB, and then point in their own direction?
