Moved up on the Mavs, tied with Pels. Depending on what happens with Denver tonight, we're either 2.5 or 2 games back

Thats original. Never heard that one before. He's better than he looks except when Dirk has him in a mismatch.

Actually i said that right after harris blew by him for an easy layup but whatevs

So glad we didn't trade Ricky for Rose. Even next year if we want to make the playoffs, I don't think we can without him. I mean, not unless we got a new PG. Dunn won't be a starter on a playoff team by next year.

If we are lucky do to chemistry and lack of talnet that Kings/Pelicans trade will take both of them out of the picture lol. Hopefully Dallas goes full tank mode too.

Thanks for putting that up mercgold3. I would have missed it.

BTW, Dallas was horrible from 3 tonight. They were something like 7 for 30?? We were like 6 of 14 or so. Don't hold me to those numbers.

Where has KAT been tonight?

OK, I wasn't home for the game and I'm still downloading it, so maybe I'll see why, but I'm confused by this. Towns shot 12-18 tonight with a huge double-double, yet reading this thread you'd think he shot 2-18.

his first half was sloppy, to say the least

I love Dirk, but he's a statue out there. Time to shut it down.

Dieng with another team plus minus lol. He's probably the most polarizing Wolves player next to Ricky

I think he the most unpolarizing player on the team besides KAT. We all love G, don't we?

He was getting doubled constantly in the first half and struggled to pass out, turned the ball over a lot and generally looked flat despite getting quite a few rebounds (most uncontested). Second half was an entirely different story - he was still getting doubles but finding ways to get his shot off and just looked a lot more energetic.

That's one of the amazing things about KAT though, he is having a "bad" game and still stuffing the box score and pulling defenders to him, huge gravity. If we had knock down three point shooters he'd get a lot more leeway.
