I don't get how Saunders can see the team failing and decide to continue doing the same things. Is it stubbornness or just a complete inability to make in game adjustments?

I think this team will get better by just not playing DLo and Okogie in the starting lineup

If we lose these back to back sets to okc and okc w/o SGA then I'm gonna boycott watching timberwolves until Saunders is fired.

Dlo being stupid.. He needs to lay off the weeds

The entire 3rd quarter is Dave and Jim talking about Lebron James and not the game.

Edwards settles for jump shots way to often. He absolutely needs to drive 80+% of the time because that's where he can create an advantage.

Trade dlo for lavine... Lavine and towns would be better combo. Dlo is soft like tissue won't attack the rim.

More than 6 minutes of game time talking about crap we don't care about

They go to break and come right back talking about it even.

I get that they're not actually at the game and are basically 2 guys talking while watching TV but it's like they're actually flipping channels.

Friqqin AL Hartford playing like his young self again us lol.this is one exciting game. Battle for the worst spot in the NBA.

As soon as Edwards dribbles his effective field goal percentage on jump shots drops by 25+%.

IceManBK1 · Post #72 » by **IceManBK1** » Sat Feb 6, 2021 2:37 am

This is worst stretch of games I've seen dlo shoot the ball. Must be like 8, 9 games he shot so poorly..

IceManBK1 · Post #73 » by **IceManBK1** » Sat Feb 6, 2021 2:40 am

Dlo actually 4-8..i thought it's 4/15 or sth

OK we got lead again. Let's not blow this in the 4th again

Really smart play from Ant at end of the quarter...nice pass to find Nowell for that 3.

life_saver · Post #77 » by **life_saver** » Sat Feb 6, 2021 2:42 am

DLo's 3's are finally falling

Everyone is harping on this team which I get. They are actually playing a lot better than 1-2 weeks ago and by quite a ways. I think we see steps for this team taking off more too such as:

- Okogie out of lineup
- Push offense thru Ant Edwards (not only start, but best driver on team by far and can create for others more than D'lo can)
- Kat back...yeah, yeah

Good things of late
- Ricky getting into a groove
- emergence of Vando and Jaden McDaniels at PF
- Ant taking off more and more
- Naz asserting on offense
- Nowell as bench shooter/scorer
- Beasley as an elite scorer and shooter (not finisher)

A lot of frustrations, but some bright spots. That is a lot better than the bleak point we were at 2 weeks ago.
