What The Rest Of The Wolves Are Doing For The All-Star Break

Kevin Love, Ricky Rubio, and Derrick Williams are all headed to Orlando for the All-Star Weekend festivities - but the rest of the team gets some time off. This got us wondering - what does the rest of the team have planned for the weekend? After the jump, here's our prediction:
- J.J. Barea: Has a one-week-old son, so probably wishing he could be back in the middle of a roaring stadium so he can have some peace and quiet for once.
- Anthony Randolph: Putting on a nice suit, getting together with a group of friends, going out for the evening, and then out of force of habit just sitting on the edge of the floor all night.
- Michael Beasley: Locked in a battle of wits with a lava lamp.
- Nikola Pekovic: Headbutting a wall that "looked at him funny."
- Martell Webster: Starting to help an old lady across the street, panicking, then pushing her into oncoming traffic while fleeing for the curb.
- Brad Miller: Visiting all parts of his vertically integrated headband supply chain.
- Darko Milicic: Going home, unplugging his phone, and sitting quietly in the very center of a dark room, waiting for Monday when he has to come out and deal with all of us idiots again.
- Malcolm Lee: Trying, and failing, to find a better place to stay in Sioux Falls than the Motel 6.
- Anthony Tolliver: Running the numbers and discovering that Jeremy Lin wearing his clothing company's gear means that Tolliver can retire tomorrow.
- Wes Johnson: Getting banned from eight different grocery stores for repeatedly dropping and breaking merchandise.
- Luke Ridnour: Drum circle. Just feelin' the beat, man.
- Wayne Ellington: Calling his agent to find out if he's still on the team or not.

Hahah very nice
Definitely got a few laughs. Depending on how big the bowl was he smoked, Beasley might lose his confrontation.

This almost sounds like a future tagline of CH
Darko was all the rage a few years ago. The fan favorite. The cast-off that was propelled into a new era of usefulness. He was praised here. He was adored here. He was our savior from irrelevancy.
For a while.
Nobody look now, but we get all giddy when he plays .1 seconds of a game these days.
He gave us hope where hope had faded. He gave us conviction where only lies were conveyed. Long live the spirit of Darko.
I'm not creative enough to have a signature.

He still guards Blake and a couple others very well, but Pekovic's play has been excellent.
600 N First Ave "like a Pirate's cove".
Yup Darko's was the best cause its true.
Well at least the dealing with us idiots part. I don’t know if he will sit in a dark room or not. Thankfully Pek has made us forget about Darko.

Ridnour in the drum circle
classic.
Too hot to handle, too cold to hold
They're called the Ghostbusters and they're in control
to J.J. I might add
Finding out that newborns really do go through 10-12 diapers a day.
At least now JJ has someone
he can share clothing with.

I'm constantly telling my daughter that JJ is...

Tolliver
may be the truest prediction.. He’s gonna end up being the richest non-playing NBAer ever through ActiveFaith.. ha he probably doesn’t even care that he’s getting no clock.
I thought of that the other night.
Talk about picking the right stock . . .

Is the obvious answer not right?
(i.e., because they are Mormons.)

Hey now! Mormonism is no more silly than Christianity.
…which is to say, they’re both incredibly silly!
Hey!
They both have books! That’s proof, right?

One on gold plates written in a language noone else can understand, buried under a tree...
…one on stone tablets brought down from on top of a mountain where noone besides Moses saw them being inscribed by “God”.
I don’t see the similarity, sorry. Clearly one is the word of God and one is just gibberish made up by a human.
i dont think they believe in ipads.

"i dont think they believe in ipads"
I thought that was the Catholic church
I disagree
I can’t see the connection with SLC. I thought he was from Washington State. I’d think he’d just take a quick ferry ride over to Van and play his video there at the Grizzlies HQ.
I assume you are joking but
the connection is that yesterday he sunk the Utah Jazz with a buzzer beating floater.

These are my 3 favorites, but it’s very well done regardless.
No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....
Randolph's is my favorite
Because it’s also probably true.

The SI "cover curse" definitely got him tonight.
Ouch. The Heat’s defense on him was crazy good, though.
The Heat's defense put him

Liked all of them but Ellington's
cuz that one could very well be true. so could Tollivers, but his is in a good way. I just feel bad for Wayne.
Otherwise well done. The image of Beasley’s had me goin
I watch this team, and i care so much, simply because i can’t not. It’s just a part of who i am..
This was awesome...
I don’t care what they do- today, yes, today folks, we are better than NY and Boston… and on our way to my 34 game (previously very unrealistic) win prediction… and ONE GAME out of the playoffs. SWEETNESS!
Beas’ lava-lamp wins this one I think.
Still have my Foye jersey. Hey- at least she TRIED! :--)
Yes!
I had 34 too.
Shit just got real

I kind of thought these were a bit mean-spirited.
Everyone is feeling good with that win. The players are resting up and getting ready to take the rest of the season strong. Everyone is feeling positive and then some fan writes up a series of personal attacks on all of our guys!
It just seems a bit ill-timed.
who wants to be a member of the 1%
when you could be a member of the 0.01%!
If at first you don't succeed, try, try again.
If that doesn't work, cheat.

What the Wolves Front Office Staff is Doing During the All-Star Break
Khan:Unrobes and takes a brisk shower in manna, that seemingly magically rains from heaven, content that his journalism history can persuade any living being that a 2guard is not needed for team success.
Taylor: Licking Envelopes to ensure the new line of envelope rollouts meets expectations.
Adelman :Talks to Brad Pitt’s agent to try out work out a “Moneyball Contract” that refutes Kahn’s notion that we don’t need to trade for a competent 2guard.
Terry Porter:Compiling evidence that he drew “The Nuts” as head coach with PHX and MIL, and showing evidence that he never was delayed in arriving on-time to practice as a Wolf due to a snow storm.
Jack Sikma:Emails Kahn and Taylor an Excel spreadsheet that proves his domination that he should not be questioned in his low-post coaching abilities. Penalties of ignoring this evidence is detailed in his accompanied manifesto “I vill break you.” Pekovic takes this to heart.
T.R. Dunn:He knows he doesn’t have to do anything during the All-Star Weekend. “I’m Theodore Roosevelt biatch!” is his trump card that continues to be successful to this day.
Bill Bayno: Devising workout routines that bear no resemblance to the routines he created in Portland that propelled Greg Oden to the force he is today.
David Adelman:Devising workout routines that contradicts Adelman’s approach to prove he didn’t get this position by nepotism.
R.J. Adelman:Runs around the gym, constantly yelling “I got my Law degree in the same state Love went to High School in! That has to account for something, right?”

Also of note.
Rubio versus Lin is on the side. I must say Ricky looked better. Also watching the last minute of that video made me very sad.
