No idea who this is or how reliable it is, but ESPN picked it up. BKN asking for two firsts for Lopez. I guess that you can ask for anything you want...

Minnesota beating Utah by 10 with 11 minutes to go in the fourth, but there's still a chance that Minnesota could win this one, anyway.

TWolves up 11 on the Jazz with 10 minutes to go, and Mavs in a close one down 3 to the Hawks at halftime.

Did anyone see that Towns putback??

TOR taking pages from GSW yesterday. LOL

LOL all that young talent, and Minny still sucks. Epic meltdown at the end. They gave up an 11-0 run to end up losing the game by two.

They should comfortably stay ahead of the Nets, but it still would've been nice to get a win for them to increase their lead over the Nets.

Minny is playing horrible and it's not all on that weak bench...

With all that athleticism and giant vertical, Wiggins sure doesn't grab many rebounds or block shots/play defense.

He has a reiatively small frame ,   No rugged type ......  I think brown has a better frame to build on than Wiggins .

Nope.  He's not that good.  Isn't someone like Avery Bradley much better than Wiggins?  I think Bradley would help a team win games a lot more a guy like Wiggins.  By the way Wiggins is the premium brand Ricky Davis, not Jimmy Butler.

[libermaniac]

Minny is just too young with no veteran leadership.  LaVine was stupid waiting for the last shot when you are down 2.  He should get a shot up quickly, so if he misses there is time to foul and hope he misses 1 of 2 so you get one last chance at a 3.  If you feel the need to ISO and take it down to no time, AT LEAST, shoot a 3 so you can win it right there.  Just a young team mistake.  That's why Minny sucks now.

Yeah calling Butler premium brand Ricky Davis is EXTREMELY rough on Jimmy.

it's bad enough when every win by the Nets ruins my night, its worse going to sleep tonight knowing I will wake to possibly having my day and night ruined by a very early game, i may just wake up, turn on the tv and immediately be p---ed:(

I just scrolled through the game thread on Liberty Ballers and found a few gems.

nerlens is the best player ever and Edited.  Profanity and masked profanity are against forum rules and may result in discipline. celticsblog

A Celtics message board was talking about getting Nerlens for Rozier and Tyler Zeller this morning LOL

I would burn down Jerry Colangelos nursing Home if BC makes that trade
