Ricky Rubio & Derrick Williams Make the Minnesota Timberwolves Worth Watching
Posted on 14 Apr, 2013, by Greg in BasketballIt’s been a long time since the Minnesota Timberwolves last had a chance to make the postseason, but it doesn’t mean they can’t make the garbage time of the season a little bit more fun, and with Ricky Rubio back to the best of his ability, making Derrick Williams seem like someone Rick Adelman sorta missed out on this season, it does look like a team worthwhile watching despite the lack of playoff interest or chances.

Los Angeles Lakers – The 2013 NBA Playoffs Conspiracy
Posted on 2 Apr, 2013, by Greg in BasketballNo one really believes and trusts the NBA officials, or the league itself, with David Stern sitting on top of the mountain. When you see the kind of calls the Los Angeles Lakers have been getting or getting away with in recent games as they attempt to make the final spot into the NBA playoffs, you can’t help to think that there’s some foul play involved, or at least wouldn’t be surprised to hear about something along those lines going on.

Boston Celtics – Tanking Their Way to the NBA Playoffs
Posted on 2 Apr, 2013, by Greg in BasketballThere’s lottery tanking, and then there’s the playoffs kind, when you know you’re not going to finish in a better position than you’re already in so you rest players as much as possible. The Boston Celtics aren’t going to finish above the 7th spot in the Eastern Conference, so Doc Rivers prefers battling his battles without Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett, not leaving himself much of a chance.

Minnesota Timberwolves – Ricky Rubio Loves Spoiling the Party
Posted on 30 Mar, 2013, by Greg in BasketballWhat’s left for the Minnesota Timberwolves this season? Spoil it for other teams, while trying to get as much cohesion and clarity regarding the guys who’ll still be with the team next season. The first name on that list is Ricky Rubio, who played his part as giant slayer, denting a huge and possibly final blow to the Oklahoma City Thunder, still trying to win the number one seed in the Western Conference.

Los Angeles Lakers – Kobe Bryant Cheats His Way to Victory
Posted on 28 Mar, 2013, by gerakis100 in BasketballRicky Rubio was right to claim he was fouled by Kobe Bryant on the final play. The Los Angeles Lakers almost let another one get away from them with some more horrendous defending, but their star player, along with a dominant performance from the rest of the “stars” – Dwight Howard, Steve Nash and yes, even Pau Gasol, helped them escape with a win and a playoff ticket still in hand.

Posted on 13 Mar, 2013, by Greg in BasketballAs the playoffs get further and further away from the Minnesota Timberwolves (been that way for a long time), all that’s left is to enjoy Ricky Rubio returning to himself as the most enjoyable to watch point guard in the NBA, while Derrick Williams proves he’s much more than just a high draft pick that warms up the bench.

Ricky Rubio With the Double Behind the Back Dribble
Posted on 13 Mar, 2013, by Vic in BasketballHow big of a game was it for Ricky Rubio and the Minnesota Timberwolves?

Minnesota Timberwolves – Ricky Rubio Looking Like the Guy From Last Year
Posted on 12 Feb, 2013, by Greg in BasketballIt’s safe to say that Ricky Rubio is back.

Ricky Rubio is Really Back; Timberwolves Keep Losing
Posted on 5 Feb, 2013, by Greg in BasketballWithout Kevin Love and a long list of injured players, the Minnesota Timberwolves don’t have much of a chance of making the postseason, already falling six games behind the last playoffs spot in the West. Still, there are some good news: Ricky Rubio is playing like his old self again. More
Minnesota Timberwolves – The Never Ending Injury List
Posted on 22 Jan, 2013, by Greg in BasketballSome might say that regardless of their injuries, the Minnesota Timberwolves weren’t supposed to make the playoffs this season.
