T'wolves Win, Beasley Sets JPoint Record

Minnesota beat the Houston Rockets tonight, 120-108. Coming into this game, Minny had been scoring an average of 95 points per game. But, as you know, any team can score more points if the just take better shots.

It's hard to lose a game when your team combines for a JPoint of 47.0 overall. That's very, very, VERY good. Let's look at some of the players who took the most shots:

Nikola Pekovic, C, MIN: 8 points, 4-6 FG, 7 rebounds, 41.4 JPoint
Ricky Rubio, PG, MIN: 18 points, 2-3 FG, 4-4 FT, 11 assists, 8 rebounds, 57.0 JPoint
Kevin Love, PF, MIN: 29 points, 10-15 FG, 7-8 FT, 7 rebounds, 57.2 JPoint


The only player who took a significant amount of shots and hurt the team:

Luke Ridnour, PG, MIN: 11 points, 5-11 FG, 0-3 3FG, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, 23.3 JPoint


But that was balanced out by this next line:



Michael Beasley, SF, MIN: 34 points, 10-14 FG, 2-3 3FG, 12-12 FT, 3 rebounds, 74.6 JPoint

And so, for now, like it or not, your JPoint crown is on the head of Michael Beasley. Let's pay some homage to the fact that he twitpic'd this:

Notice the bag of drugs on the table in the bottom right corner? Smooth move, bro. 

So although he's probably the dumbest athlete in sports, tonight Michael Beasley is the king. (Note: I just took this picture off of Google Images and I don't claim ownership and all kinds of SOPA shit)
