I'm willing to live with defensive struggles if he's giving us 15-20 on the other end. Not 6 though, he needs to be better.

Rob can’t do much worse can he?

I will say, I'm close to giving him a chance on offense. Can we hide him well enough on defense though?


You need to be able to score in order to set your defense. If you can’t even get the ball across half, it don’t matter.

Do you want us to try to get the ball across halfcourt with all centers?

Doesn't matter if we get it across court if the only person who can score is Edwards. Now let's see what happens on the defensive glass and how much Portland gets to the rim or in the paint.

I think Anthony Edwards is going to have to take over in the fourth quarter, because Minnesota has absolutely zero rhythm. Julius Randle needs to hold things steady to start the fourth.

TSJ will be starting by trade deadline if we don't get a PG.

Anthony Edwards is in his own head about fouls. Not a good sign, he needs to not get into a self-defeating, whining mentality.

What do the wolves perimeter players have to do to get foul calls? Do they not get the same contact on the offensive end? Do they not sell enough? Is it a respect thing? What is it?

We needed that TSJ 3 desperately. I was close to thinking we were going to lose.
