Just got in but I was able to listen to most of the first on the radio on the way home. Radio guy is hyping D-Will like crazy, he was going nuts, lol, he got me pumped on the way home. Has he looked that good? How is his defense? Happy Porter is giving him some minutes.

I looked away for a moment -- what did I miss?

Just an everyday Barea to Stiemsma alleyoop.


It was Luke to Steamer which, in my opinion, is even weirder since I consider Luke the worst passer out of the bunch.

This team is pretty good when they make their shots.

Not just tonight. I think Jim Pete or Benz mentioned it the other day that his shooting numbers for the past few games have been off.

I'm not entirely sure about that, though.

by my count he hit 3 of 4 threes and did a straight line drive to the hoop that clunked off the heel of the rim and went in. I wouldn't say I saw anything new, but his threes were falling. When we see some 1 dribble pullups, curls off screens, or something from the post, then we'll know we're seeing something new and special.

Yep, he looked good overall. I counted only one headshaking move where he gathered the ball a tad too far away from the basket and eventually tried a layup only to hit the rim from underneath.

Other than that, he's been good. Hit some threes, made a nice drive to the hoop finishing despite contact and had a break-away dunk.

Good 1st half as usual for Wolves, now i hope we will avoid meltdown in 3rd because this game reminds me on Philly game.

Pretty sure.

Edit: play-by-play proves it.

Umm... are we supposed to call AK AR-15 now? Or call him US Airways? Didn't know he's got the American citizenship now.
