20 point leads just aren't what they used to be.

Brown now knows that Rudy should never get the ball more than 4 feet from the rim.

Karl-Anthony Towns has made himself untradeable.

How about that new floor. Is this permanent? It's awfully bright but I kind of like it. Very modern.

But it takes so much energy making the comeback. It drains the players. Nice to have a manageable 6 point deficit at the half.

I still strongly believe we need to get KAT way more looks at 3. He should be taking like 8 a game. Also, Ant should have passed him the ball for a 3 at the end of the quarter there. I don't care if he misses, he is our best 3 point shooter, he needs to take them at volume, particularly if he is open or has any space.

Great wake up in the second part agaisnt a good team. Feel a bit boring sometimes here, so much negativity when we play bad one quarter. We got the best record right now and people still complain about defense, Rudy missing rebound.....so ridiculous.

KAT has been Jeff Teague/Mike Miller level hesitant on 3s, preferring to drive instead

He wouldn't play worse than Shake.

I've been thinking about this. The more he plays like this, he might turn out to not be a net negative contract, even once the extension kicks in during the summer.

While this is true to a degree, Minnesota really doesn't run many actions to get him open three-point looks. It kinda just happens sporadically, which feels like a missed opportunity.

Agree with that. I would like also to see more 3 from Mike. They not find him enough in the corner.

If we win Rudy making FTs could be a big key to the comeback.
