Game Thread: NY Knicks @ Minnesota Timberwolves 02/08/13 3:00

Tonight's joint comes from the Minneapolis' finnest hiphop duo, Atmosphere!

The Knicks have ended a 6 game winning streak to the Wizards, the team who owns the second worst record in the NBA, and fell 1.5 games behind Miami in the eastern conference standings.

The Timberwolves got only 2 wins in the last 10 games so they should be an easy prey. However, keep an extra eye on Derrick Williams. He can be dangerous when he gets +20 minutes! Ricky Rubhio can also be a factor. Although he's not constant he can pass, score and grab rebounds. Against Portland he had a season high 14 assists and 15 points!

[Rob Low]

[deamon]

Love is out, isn't enough?

[LeFlume]

Let's get back on track. Knicks for the win..

[deamon]

Chandler has to play better D on Pekovic.

[PatrickChewing]

Nets getting worked by the Wizards. Makes that loss slightly easier to accept.

Looking for the Knicks to get some separation in the second quarter here. T-Wolves have two wins in their last 15 games. Stop playing around.

[JoeBo21]

[PatrickChewing]

Wolves shooting 50 percent. They're 25th in the NBA in FG%, by the way.

[deamon]

Our defense is soft.
Chandler should bulk up.

I understand the frontcourt depth is lacking with Camby/Sheed out, but man up and send one of these guards to the floor the next time they go inside on you. NO LAYUP KNICKS. C'mon now.
