POdz 0% on wide open corner three then did not run back on defense. No worries he will play 40 mins!

Maybe I am wrong but the Warriors have clealy had a lineup with Kuminga thats been its best. With the sub patterns they won't even get to that lineup till the end of the 2nd quarter, that seems silly like you are trying to fool your opponent on your best punch

I can’t suggest a better lineup. But this doesn’t look like a winner.

Maybe one that includes the guy who scored 33 last game? Nah, that's just what they'd be expecting.

Even Kuminga subbing in now they are already pulling Jimmy and Buddy. The sub patterns don't represent any desire to control the game early.

Randle absolutely owns Draymond, not good.

Would really rather not have JK taking 3s. They're not going to win on that.

Anytime a Wolves possession ends without Ant, Randle, or Reid, it's a win.

Hell yes they could, I just don't think they can afford him (if MIN let's him go).

Dray guarding close outs has not been good.
