The above human is an actual NBA player

Sorry, not much time for a preview today. A few quick bullets.

-Take Care of the Ball. Last night was an outlier in every sense of the word in terms of turnovers (and the dreadful transition D after said turnovers). 24 total. Let's hope the Wolves can take care of the ball a bit more tonight. While last night was abysmal, we can rest on our laurels that the carelessness is highly unlikely to happen often.

-B-Roy Needs a Redemption Game. Easily one of the worst NBA stints I have ever seen, and watching this team since 2009 has yielded a mountain of suck. Brandon Roy looked absolutely terrible. Let's continue to hope he still has something left and can redeem himself tonight. Give it a few more games before overreacting.

-Shved got a haircut. This is neat, yet makes him look slightly less interesting.

-No G Wallace tonight. Crash crashed. One less threat out there. Keep an eye on that Net's backcourt fronting the scoring load (and I definitely lump Disney Lopez into the backcourt category, since he plays like a shooting guard). But if Kyle Lowry is any indication, get ready for a huge night from Deron Williams. If Rubio is considered an "ace" defender, then Ridnour is more like a two of hearts.

-Barea Concussed. Will be a game-time decision as our *gulp* leading scorer. 

-Rick's Rotation. Odd that he is still tying to 'find his way' in terms of minute management. I am a little confused why Pek isn't getting the ball more or playing more as our obvious go-to scorer. Hopefully this isn't a trend. 

Prediction: A tough trip to 1-2. Brooklyn will be a tough team with above average options all over the court. It would take a sudden Zen moment and some help from the Russian Mafia to win this one. Love can't get healthy soon enough.

New season coming!

Editor's Note: Recently TwolvesBlog invited the TimberTrolls to become members of our writing staff. The TimberTrolls are primary Spanish-speaking so pardon the language barrier! We welcome their pictures, .gifs and videos with open arms and hope you enjoy their posts throughout the season and beyond. Before the season kicks into gear, they will post some of their old favorites, as well as some pictures that never really made it onto their Facebook or Twitter pages last season. Here is their first post:

Hi Everyone!
 

We are the TimberTrolls, a spanish timberwolves fanclub that follows the team with humor. After a great season, the team became a family. Here you can see them eating together one night:

Or sharing the car to go home after a match:

We start this season with changes but i hope the TimberTroll spirit won't dissapear.

The team has changed the roster and become more "white":

I hope we can have a great time together and be happy with our team!
