That was a truly awful 3rd quarter for the Wolves. So many bad mistakes that turned into Mavs points.

Doesn't he have COVID still?

Someone said he was back practicing late last week I think.

I have no idea what we’re doing out there on either end. Especially the defensive end. It’s like it’s a pickup game and these guys have never played together before.

Seems like we gave up at some point during the last few minutes of the 3rd.

When you see 4 timberwolves collapse into the paint on one driving player who kicks out for a 3 shot, and the rebound bounces back out beyond all 4 players again. It's really time to turn the game off.

Well yeah it's been nothing but Edwards ball for a week or two now. He comes off and someone like Culver who's been hurt comes on. It's a mess. Then Nowell is just taking as many 2s as he can to get us back in this and finally get some shots since Ant was finally out. Kind of reminds me of early in the season.

Powell moving better than he was earlier in the year, but still pretty far from what he was pre-Achilles

Juancho has to be among the worst players I've ever seen at being able to actually grab the ball. There are just way too many times he comes close to the ball only to lose the rebound.

We don’t have good ball movement. I’m afraid that when your top guys (I’m looking at you Ant) are ball hogs, it filters down. When guys don’t touch it for 4-5 possessions, when they finally do, they are more likely to shoot/drive than just keeping the ball moving.

it was JMac or no one to stop him tonight. If he was ready to play and Finch didn't, it's on Finch. Guy is used to playing without practices. Just needed someone with as quick of moves to stay infront of Brunson.

I have officially changed my mind about something. Instead of benching Ant when Beasley and Dlo get back, bench him NOW. Sit his A** down now and going forward Nowell is your starting SG. Let Ant play backup SG or even backup PG, IDC, but he is too much of a liability.

Beasley coming back is going to be the best thing to happen to ANT. He'll be on the bench again.

Edwards must be happy he got his 20th point

Jedzz · Post #116 » by **Jedzz** » Thu Mar 25, 2021 2:11 am

Ant 37% FG, 20% from 3. Can he get some garbage time shots in to save that look? Doesn't look good right now. You got some ketchup on your face there...yeah on the left.
