It looks like no LeBron (foot problem) again for a second straight game, though his +/- has been so bad for the Lakers in recent weeks that it might not be a big negative. The Lake Show did win without him at midweek vs. the Blazers but it was a sluggish effort in a 107-98 victory. The last time the Lakers faced the T-wolves on December 2, it was a 109-80 romp for Minny with LeBron enduring a painful 4 for 16 shooting display. That was just one of several poor efforts lately for LA but also reminds the T-wolves are capable of the sort of elite defense to hold foes in the 80s. That Wolves romp two weeks ago is part of a five-game stretch in which they are allowing only 86 ppg and suggesting it might be a real chose to clear 214 tonight at Target Center.
