Well, so much for that blog post or KG isn't playing today against the Wolves

I was all set to write a pregame post about Garnett. I even had a fancy title "I Don't Heart KG." But then I saw this from Jerry Zgoda

KG is not in the house fro the Celtics today because of a fever and the flu. This is an interesting development as the Wolves have played the green and white tough in recent meetings. Generally, however, KG pulls them through at the end.

I still don't think this is a game that the Wolves can win. The Celtics -- like the Lakers on Friday night -- are just too good. The Celtics, after all, have won 10 in a row.

Sorry I didn't post after Friday night's loss, but frankly I didn't have a whole lot to add. I didn't see the first half and was surprised to see that they were only down four at the break. I watched the second half while at a bar. No sound, a couple of beverages, etc. 

The outcome was about like I thought. The game flow at Popcorn Machine, confirmed what I figured would happen: The Wolves struggled against the Lakers big lineup. With Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum on the floor early in the third quarter, the Lakers went +14 before making a move.
