Ah-Uh-Huh!
Straight off the bat I'm putting us down for a win in this game.
Memphis are a pretty good team and they saw us off in the fouth quarter in Minneapolis, without Zach Randolph. At that time Kevin Love wasn't in suspenders trouble with the NBA bigwigs...he was on the court scoring 27 points and pulling down 14 boards....it wasn't enough.
After "decent" performances last night against the Kings, Michael Beasley and Derrick Williams will probably look to push on tonight and be bigger influences on the game. You could argue that Derrick Williams was the game "changer" against Sacramento. When he returned to the game in the 4th last night the Kings had tied things up at 77-77 with 4.13 remaining...he scored 7 of the next 9 points...including some strong post play, driving play, tough rebounding and to cap it all, icing a corner three...clutch! We all know there's more under that hood though and he'll get further opportunities tonight.
Going out onto the road for this game may not be a bad thing for these Twolves having just achieved their winning record...it may free them up a bit?
Love doesn't play but Pek and Barea (who didn't on Jan 6th) do.
Memphis look slightly vulnerable although their defeats in the last three games have been to "form" teams ...OKC, Boston and SAS....
Tough road win...let's do it!
