Injury update: Miller out, Love in

Mike Miller is on the inactive list tonight because of that sprained ankle and Kevin Love is back in the starting lineup next to Ryan Gomes, who moves back to small forward, and Al Jefferson in the frontcourt with Randy Foye and Kevin Ollie as your backcourt starters.

Miller worked out early before tonight’s game and he and the team’s trainers concluded his stiff, heavily wrapped ankle is too sore for him to play.

Love should be at 4, Gomes at 3, Foye at 2. Telfair becomes the backup and Foye gets to do what he likes to do - score. Carney deserves some minutes, especially if Miller is out/limited.

Glad to know what I’m talking about once in awhile :)

good luck tonight guys, the Nets know what they are doing

Well this should be interesting. McHale still on the road trip Jerry?

this team should forfeit all the rest of their games. send everyone packing and disband! what a joke! they pay these jokers money to play like this?

Can the Wolves leave Al Jefferson in New Jersey and come back with Brook Lopez (a legit seven footer), Yi, and Strohmile Swift’s expiring contract?

Is Wittman going to get left in NJ?

Unless they have some kind of 4th quarter effort/comeback right now, I can’t see how Wittman can keep his job after this road trip.
