A couple of quick thoughts...

... before I head home to watch Wolves-Heat.

1. Will the Wolves have an answer for Jermaine O'Neal? It was only a little more than a week ago when JO'Neal went for 22 and 8 against the Wolves in Game 1 A.A. (After Al). Now he's traded Toronto for Miami and will play his first game for the Heat. How is that going to work?

2. What kind of jump will the Wolves have tonight? The last 30 games of the season are going to be difficult because of injuries. I know that. You know that. Everybody knows that. But I'm all right with it if the Wolves continue to play the right way. I want to see them play hard, fight and not let losing become OK. Tonight's the first true test of that. Last night should have been a Wolves victory, but instead a horrible Wizards team. I don't want to see that linger into tonight's game. If there's effort and a loss, I'm cool. If there's laziness, I won't be thrilled.

3. Wolves say that Al's surgery went well. I expected them to say nothing else. We'll know a whole lot more in September than we do now. Here's hoping the big load on the block turns out OK.

That's it. I'm hitting send and getting out of here.
