How good has Mike Conley been tonight? I love the guy.


If I just watched the box score or had him on my fantasy team I'd feel better about him right now. But with his body language Its just not entertaining and I'm sure it effects the team just like Finch's body language does.

On the negative side, one thing I've really noticed early on is Shake Milton can not get any separation in isolation, moves slowly and his handle is below average.

It's borderline -ist when it comes to this fan base. He can do no right, and they will always hate him.



It’s sad how emasculated this culture is getting.

Is it hate when your parents are critical of you??? Or maybe, they believe in you and expect better of you?

I much prefer when Mike conduct the game. Ant can focus and score, defense and we are much more efficient. Great win tonight, elite defense from the team.

I love it but you're pouring it on a little thick eh? :D

Great to see smiles on the Wolves bench at the 1:30 mark.

Maybe this can be the start of something good.

Shake looks like our new Shabazz But Bazz had more post moves and that nice push hook shot that went in. Shake just keeps going to thae same spot just to get blocked.

The defense looks elite. The offense is the big problem. I 'd like to see the defense fuel the offense a lot more too.

It's beyond being critical. Calling someone an effing idiot isn't saying they believe in you...

Three of four games holding the opponent below 100 is remarkable in this era!

about as good a response as the team could have had
Gobert and Jaden were forces defensively

Guys bust each others balls and hold each other accountable. If you’re being an effing idiot, man up and accept it, and stop being an effing idiot.

Walker Kessler can't hold this Rudy's jock strap.

I don’t think kat is an idiot but he just has bad basketball iq and makes really unfortunate mistakes that he shouldn’t be making, is that the same thing?
