It feels like the Wolves should be up by 20+, but as too often happens turnovers and offensive rebounds are letting their opponent stay in the game.

We always get sloppy with a big lead. It's our way.

Didn't play well in the second quarter after such a hot start.

Anthony Edwards needs to tone down the turnovers.

Soooo sloppy by everyone but Mike.
But the defense looks much improved.
Normally we would have not even come close to stopping that leak out. This time not only did we come close, we got the stop.

For as good as this team can play, it's frustrating to see them being unable to address their turnover and rebounding issues. It's tough to win when you give the other team 11 more shots in a half.

Yes, Wizards not going to quite. Wolves just need some patience and don't turn the ball over. We shot 50%-40%-100% the 1st half so should really be up a lot more.

Beal is so damn good. It's always been surprising he's elected to stay in Washington.

Wolves have to do a better job of staying with Kispert. He's hitting wide open shots, but if someone stays on him, he is no threat.

Rudy is by far our best player tonight. Getting it done on both ends.

If Michelangelo can do this for Rudolph on offense, imagine what he could do for Karlton...

Rudy Gobert is cooking tonight on both ends. Two terrible fumbles, but otherwise, he’s balling.
