Offense not there tonight but this score should do wonders for our defensive rating.

Bad game but a win is a win. As I have been saying all season. Finch really needs to get some go to plays to find some offense for Towns, we will desperately need it for the playoffs. Anyway. Got the W. Rudy was big time and took over the game. Arrrroooooo!!!!

Can't say enough about Rudy. Ant is obviously our superstar but Rudy has been our MVP this season.

When we traded for him I coined Go Bear.

I remember you calling him that

I do think it is a little to on the nose to coin it though

One comment of negativity, Anthony Edwards’ inability to create for teammates and general trend of limiting Towns offensive output (six shots is obscene) is a trend that will be exceptionally problematic in a Playoff series. Really need to work on that.

Rockets up 15 on the Thunder to increase our gap on 1st place

i don't know what the hell the deal was tonight with Towns. He had 14 and 10 but he had 6 turn overs and didn't play well defensively. I guess I'll take that bad night.

Agree, but you could tell Ant was not right tonight. Grimacing and trying to stretch the hip. He just wasn’t Ant tonight. But I cannot agree more that KAT must shoot more, we need to run the offense to get him open more, and Finch needs to yell at him if he ends the night in single digit shot attempts. 10 is way too few, anything less is UNACCEPTABLE.

More than that, this is what we are finally learning to do.

But that dunk on the follow up to the 3 pt miss was effing exciting! WOW!

Ant had a bad night but had 9 in the 4th qtr to make up for it.

Good teams win like we won tonight.

Mike And Rudy were really really good in the 2nd half. Mike was our only offense that working and Rudy cleaned up a lot of missed shots.

Kudos to Finch for sitting KAT for Naz for nearly the rest of the game after that ridiculous turnover where he spin dribbled into 4 defenders and then flipped the ball over his head out of bounds. Need some accountability if we are going to fix the offensive and turnover problems.

The poor offense is going to bite us sooner or later, need to find ways to get KAT and ANT some easier looks.
Milton and Anderson are awful offensively on the 2nd unit, they're not bad players but they look awful in this offense and both of them have completely broken jumpers right now.

A win is a win, but this one was more about how bad San Antonio was outside of Vassell.
Didn't think Victor would hit the rookie wall 20 games in and looks like a team with zero confidence compared to the one from a few weeks ago. A 14 game win streak will do that, but looks like a team afraid to make mistakes and sick of getting yelled at by Pop.

Ant was sleepy tonight. We've got to figure out some plays/spacing to take advantage of Karl's 3 point shot. Need to take advantage of his efficiency.

In 20 games we have held at least 8 teams under 100 points. 2-4 other games they just got over 100 in garbage time. Pretty cool.
