Counting down: Wolves play season's final road game tonight at Detroit

The Wolves play the season's final road game tonight against a Pistons team that has lost three of its last four, six of its last eight and is playing its third game in three nights.

Of course, they also absolutely clobbered Cleveland at home 116-77 on Tuesday night.

The Wolves will play on without Kevin Love and Luke Ridnour again, although Rick Adelman said before tonight's game that there's a real possibility both players will return for the season's final two games Sunday against Golden State.

"We want to win," he said before adding that the team will do nothing to put Love's long-term healthy in jeopardy.

Adelman again will start Anthony Randolph at power forward tonight for the third consecutive game, even though he went 2-for-15 in the first two starts.

The Pistons are playing tonight without Ben Wallace, who's away from the team attending a funeral.

One other thing:

"That's terrible, that's just terrible," Nikola Pekovic said.

Anthony Tolliver agreed.

"That is terrible," he said, "but I hope he keeps it."

Here's what Ricky Rubio tweeted in response: "To learn spanish u dont need to look like a mexican u just need to study @kevinlove.
