08:10 AM ET 03.21 | Kevin Love and Michael Beasley are ailing, not that having them healthy would have made any great difference in a new low point to Minnesota's season, a 127-95 loss to the Kings. Love left the game in the second quarter with a sore left groin and didn't return. ... Love, who looked to be hampered a while before leaving the game with 3:18 left in the second quarter, finished with zero points and three rebounds. But, as coach Kurt Rambis said, the way his team was playing, having Love and Beasley healthy probably wouldn't have made that much of a difference. The Wolves made 25 turnovers, and the Kings scored 33 points off them. Sacramento out-rebounded the Wolves 47-27 and outscored them in the paint (50-36) and on the break (20-6). "They're all looking at it as what do we have left to play for?" Rambis said.

This is what I hate about the end of the NBA season. If you are not going to the playoffs everyone sits the starts to jockey for more ping pong balls. Everyday I lose more and more interest in the NBA and the Twolves. Its either bad draft picks, sitting on a Ricky Rubio instead of trading for someone who could help us or not doing anything before the trade deadline to help Beasley and Love. They need a new owner and GM.

All the same comments were made about the Green Bay Packers when Ted took over and look he took them to a super bowl. It takes time and lots of player movement to find the right pieces and we are not near that point yet,but with our best players out we can see what we have for a bench and see if Wes can step his game up like when we shipped Brewer out.

Khan didn't make a big trade because he is trying to build with the draft. I don't see alot of talent in this draft but we could at least get an impact player and someday soon the Rickey thing will be settled ( I still think he is going to be traded) and we are going to move forward as a team.

here's an idea guys. unless you're klove, you're playing to prove you belong in this league. you're playing for your next contract. is that motivation enough?
