Adelman looks for continuity, even with Martin still out

Wolves starting shooting guard Kevin Martin will miss his second consecutive game tonight against Toronto at Target Center because of that sore Achilles tendon, an absence that will give him now another eight days to rest and heal before the team plays its final three preseason games.

Even with Martin out, Wolves coach Rick Adelman said he hopes to play his top nine or 10 players together more starting tonight and particuarly focusing in on the final three preseason games.

So don't expect Kevin Love and Ricky Rubio to play just the first 11 minutes, like they did Thursday night in Sioux Falls against the Bucks.
