Should be up by 10 at least. The offense just not smooth. Naz and the bench - should be benched.

I don't understand wheelchair basketball. You can dribble, pick it up, roll for awhile, dribble again.

There are no double dribbles in wheelchair basketball, but players are limited to two wheel pushes before having to dribble again (or they are called a travel).

LOL. Our offense had a power outage to start but things are picking up.

Playing Dallas missing almost their whole team, their best remaining player Hardaway can't make a shot to save his life and somehow it's a very close game early 3rd Quarter.

Sweet, someone else knows the sport!

Judging by the half time demonstration game not a lot of defense being played. Are shots ever blocked?

I find it hard to believe that Rudy only had 2 rebounds in the half and 3 for the game so far. I pretty much expect a double double from Rudy every game and if he misses the double double it will on points not on rebounds.

Ant is really trying to find his teammate tonight and Towns is getting into the 3pt shooting rhythm sooner. Encouraging signs, learning process or playing with food, that is what young pups do. Just win baby.

Have I mentioned I like it when we feed the hot hand? Also have I mentioned I like it when Karl shoots more 3s?

I like Anthony Edwards trying that pass. The execution was horrendous, but it was 100% the right idea.

Just when I think we're pulling away Dallas is right back in it. Also I shouldn't have mentioned Hardaway's cold hands because they're heating up.

Now I know why Rudy has such bad hands. He was a soccer player.

Look at how the Dallas Mavericks have to scramble, now that Karl-Anthony Towns has made a couple threes. Really opens up the floor for Rudy Gobert's gravity to shine.
