Let's face it, Martell probably wouldn't have made the three-point shot anyway...
Minnesota Timberwolves (16-17) vs. Utah Jazz (15-16) at Target Center
Somehow, even though the Minnesota Timberwolves lost on Monday night to the Denver Nuggets, they managed to climb up the standings and are no longer in the basement of the Northwest division. Sitting in the 10th spot in the Western Conference, the Wolves are still having their best start in the last five seasons.
The Utah Jazz come into town having lost 9 of their last 12 games, including a 102-106 loss to San Antonio in Salt Lake City. Al Jefferson is 4-1 against his former team, including a January 21 home win against the Wolves in which Jefferson had 18 points and 12 rebounds. Kevin Love finished that game with only 15 points and 8 rebounds.
It is the final game before the NBA All-Star break and the Wolves are hoping for some momentum heading into the second half of the season.
Word on the street is that Nikola Pekovic is planning on giving it a go tonight. Whether he'll start and how much he'll play is yet to be determined. I'm putting him in the projected lineup because I don't want to think about the possibility that Brad Miller could actually get a start tonight. (Thanks to Dave Chisholm for the head's up on this one)
Projected Starting Lineups
C: Nikola Pekovic vs. Al Jefferson
PF: Kevin Love vs. Paul Millsap
SF: Wesley Johnson vs. Josh Howard
SG: Luke Ridnour vs. Gordon Hayward
PG: Ricky Rubio vs. Devin Harris
When debates about trading/not trading Al Jefferson were happening on this site, no one could've imagined that a most effective version of Jefferson was coming to our team from Europe. Who would choose Al Jeff over Pek right now?
Last 5 Games
Utah Jazz: (5th in Northwest; 9 1/2 gms behind OKC; 11th in West, 2 gms behind 8th seed)
Mon, Feb 13: Loss at New Orleans 80-86

Fri, Feb 17: Win at Houston 111-98
Sun, Feb 19: Win vs. Philadelphia 92-91
Mon, Feb 20: Loss at Denver 101-103 (OT)
With no Raja Bell tonight, the Utah Jazz will be relying upon Gordon Hayward for all of their missed shot attempts.
Injuries
Utah Jazz:
Raja Bell - Questionable with a strained right groin
Minnesota Timberwolves:
Darko Milicic - Questionable with an injured stomach/oblique muscle...after playing 0.1 seconds against Philadelphia
Nikola Pekovic - Questionable with a sprained right ankle
There are more than a couple of Wolves players who could use Rick Adelman's intensity and competitiveness.
Noteworthy Stats
- Michael Beasley and Kevin Love are now tied for number of shot attempts per-36 minutes at 16.4. J.J. Barea is 3rd with 15.4. Thankfully, Brad Miller and his .167 shooting percentage is last with 5.3 attempts per-36 minutes.
- Al Jefferson leads the Jazz in shot attempts per-36 at 19.0. C.J. Miles is in a distant second place at 15.7. Jefferson also has the highest usage rate on the team (27.6%). Black hole, indeed.
- Nikola Pekovic is averaging 17.3 points and 10.3 rebounds during the month of February
- Minnesota is 17th in the NBA in point differential at +1.2. Utah is in 19th at -1.5. Miami and Chicago are tied for 1st this season at +9.2, while Charlotte is 30th at -14.3. Last season, Minnesota was 28th in point differential at -6.6.
- The Wolves take the fourth highest amount of free throw attempts per game at 26.0. They are 7th in free throw percentage at .779
Derrick Favors was selected, instead of Nikola Pekovic, to replace Tiago Splitter in the NBA Rising Stars game at All-Star weekend in Orlando.

Sweet pek pic!
And thanks for the writeup!
“Thankfully, Brad Miller and his .167 shooting percentage is last with 5.3 attempts per-36 minutes.”
Where in the wold is ... Nikola Pekovic
I have probably seen the video a half dozen times so far. It’s even funnier when you wonder if Pek even knows who Carmen Santiago was.
I thought the name was
Carmex Sanfrancisco.
(sry, in a goofy mood tonight)
I'm not creative enough to have a signature.

Did Favors get picked over Pek?
or was it because Pek rolled his ankle???
I hope Pek has a big night , He gets no respect!
Authentic frontier Gibberish
They didn't ask
about Pek’s ankle before making the selection.

Just no love for Pek outside of MN yet
look at where ESPN has him ranked in the most improved player list freakin 6th and everyone already knows who is 1st . Lets hope he demolishes a couple more people tonight.

his age
Personally I think he wasn’t chosen due to his age. He’s 26 and I don’t think he fits into the NBAs image for what it wants in the Rising Stars game.
that pic of adelman needs a caption!

Calvin & Hobbes
ceased production largely because Bill Watterson refused to sell out by syndicating his product. It’s the rare case where an artist stands by his message without sacrificing it for dollars. I only wish he had continued to produce C&H via anthologies, regardless of whether they were published in a newspaper.
And I agree, Family Circus has never been, and never will be, funny.

Yep.

And for Heaven's sake, don't you be so sad.
I was in the navy when C&H was still running
and every week my mother would cut out all of the strips and mail them to me. I used to draw, and I mimicked just about every comic strip I read, but I never did with that one. I didn’t want to distort it.

Best Bil Keane site I know of:
The Nietzsche Family Circus pairs a randomized Family Circus cartoon with a randomized Friedrich Nietzsche quote.
(In defense of the strip, Martell Webster’s final play in overtime would have been even more gobsmacking with one of those dotted line diagrams.)

I love that you've become a poster who makes serious, genuine contributions to the site, man.
This is either true or he’s just sitting in Mr. Adelman’s basement. Darko is clearly hurt. And by hurt, I mean, y’know, hanging out, smoking like a chimney.
Darko apparently has been making up his injuries
Or at least that’s what Zgoda said when I asked him about it.

Brad Miller to the rescue!
He’s going to go off tonight. I say 60 points – they’ll have to foul his dominance and he’ll splash 40 FT attempts.
T'Wolves 2012: My Kingdom For A Wing
This made me wonder what the most FTAs ever was, and who'd "splashed" it. Wilt?
Limited by BBRef’s search feature, I don’t see any of the Wilt Chamberlain-era guys. But still, Dwight had 39 FTA in January?? 8 more than Shaq’s second-place game? Is that even right?
Yes, it is. And Wilt’s record (34 attempts) was broken.
So you’re saying Brad Miller sets the bar even higher.
The last thing we want to do is take long twos. It's still on our list, though.
Look, Brad Miller is a record breaker
It’s what he was born to do.
T'Wolves 2012: Where Fabricating Injuries Constitutes Player Production
Records, mirrors....
The last thing we want to do is take long twos. It's still on our list, though.
Statistics questions
If you go up for a shot and get fouled but don’t really get the shot off, does that count as a shot attempt?
If you go for a shot and get fouled and miss the shot, does that count as a missed shot?
Always forget these things. I’ve very surprised Love doesn’t have a higher shot attempts rate (he should shoot more!) and was wondering if all the times he’s fouled and gets to the line, but never gets the shot off and thus it’s not factored in here.
No.
If you get fouled in the act of shooting and miss the shot, it does not count as a missed FG. I’m not sure what your first hypothetical means, but if you get fouled before you take a shot, obviously there is no missed FG attempt
by Timberwolf in LA on Feb 22, 2012 4:53 PM CST up reply actions
Cool thanks
Yeah, I guess my first question was kind of obvious.
It makes sense for Love when some games it looks like he shot 10 times but you know he made more attempts than that.
Yeah
That’s why TS%, or true shooting percentage, is such a good statistic. It includes free throw makes and the added value of three-pointers in calculating the value of a player’s true shooting. Players like KLove “attempt” fewer shots per game because they make it to the line so often. That’s why it’s insane when Kobe shoots 12-16 free throws yet STILL has 28 FG attempts
by Timberwolf in LA on Feb 22, 2012 5:05 PM CST up reply actions
So you're saying...
…we need a TSA (ball-hog/gunner) stat ? Which, I suppose, would be pretty similar to USG%. Dammit.
Exactly
And lo-and-behold, Kobe’s USG% is off the charts high this year
by Timberwolf in LA on Feb 22, 2012 6:01 PM CST up reply actions
I can actually see a future FAQ-Thread on these very scenarios
Ones that are goofy, not well known or understood, or just plan confusing…
For instance:
-Is an airball a missed FGA or a TO, both, or other?
-Does the inbounder get an assist if it is catch-n-shoot, ally-oop, or other made FG that would normally count as an assist if it wasn’t an inbound play?
-If the ball goes out of bounds off the ref, what’s the call?
-If Adelman ran out on the court and sets an illegal screen, it is a TO? (ok, I’m just being a bit silly on that one)
-If a passer passes the ball to a teammate, but the teammate bobbles it and never has control and it gets stolen or goes out of bounds, who gets credit for the TO? And does the quality of the pass make a difference?
(just some I thought of off the top of my head before leaving for the game)
I'm not creative enough to have a signature.
by Skat the Rat on Feb 22, 2012 5:59 PM CST up reply actions
If the ball goes out of bounds off Joey Crawford, he calls a foul.
Bank on it.
The last thing we want to do is take long twos. It's still on our list, though.
on that last one
on 2k12, you are always the one credited with the turnover when your teammate bobbles your pass. Of course, nba 2k12 is the authority on all things basketball, so you can take this one as a fact.

Think Adelman is saying...
“I like want to grab his head and squeeze as hard as I can until he gets it.”
There’s no telling which player it was about…. so many to choose from. ;-)
Worried about Milsap
Love has a tough time guarding him, Beasley doesn’t care enough to block him (or anyone) out. You read it here first: Williams plays a lot and has a big game tonight.

Of course Pek is playing.
He is superhuman. The real question is why did he not return to play in the last game? My guess: Kryptonite.
Damn you, Lex Luthor!
I don't know how these massive men don't get more ankle injuries
Darko’s best attribute is definitely that he doesn’t… get… injured… and thus stays on the court?
That kinda got away from me a bit.

October 21, 1990 The Best Day in Minnesota Timberwolves History
He looks out of it tonight.
Can see it on his face. Depth is a problem for this team. Love and Rubio have gotten less dynamic as the season has gone on, it seems.
Watson and Barea are about one Pek high combined.
I'm going to brag. I drive the Nikola Pekovic fanwagon.
teams are defending the paint against us and we can't make open shots
when people gets tired, there is more holes in D
Unicorns do exists, on wolves skin.
well, he can only get some by feeding to the post
but as sure as hell I don’t see this team making long shots anytime soon. And teams no longer really defend our outside shooters, so feels like 2 vs 4 inside
Is it me
or do you guys sometimes hate Adelmans rotation
Needs Luke to shoot
Not sure why Wes is starting. I cannot justify that at all without using the words “false sense of security.”
T'Wolves 2012: Where Fabricating Injuries Constitutes Player Production
yeah.. that was a ridiculous comment last game..
don’t even know where it came from
no.. I'm tired of Luke in the starting lineup..
he gets abused on the other end
Not even that
but the fact that he doesnt seem to mind jj barea’s best kobe impression, and keeps putting him in despite what he does
I forgot
we do have players that can make a shot, right?

so surprised
that Barea took a long transition 3. he is so bad for the twolves right now
Wow, in the replay of webster's dunk,
He actually looked sad to be dunking…time to shake off the heebie jeebies!
I liked that possession
Barea didnt touch the ball, and the guards tried to create the play.
There we go
2s and 3s need to start making plays
Fuck you
Barea, i dont mind if he gets cut today
Is this doubling as the game thread? Man, we're getting mugged tonight.
"I'm shocked - shocked - to find basketball going on in here."
Barea's a ball hog.
I don’t care if he has points.
