Thanks Rose & coaching staff for running down the clock to 0 and hitting it. So many times Wolves players went early missed a shot and they gave time for the opponent to hit a heart-breaker against us. Saunders 3-3 and Jerry Sichting 1-0?

Don’t care what you think this franchise needs a second superstar moving forward in kats prime years, they won’t get it in free agency.

Wolves need to have a plan since the last one obviously did NOT work! Tank for zion or Barett.


Tanking for Zion/barrett is a stupid plan

Stupid beyond comprehension. Also gutless and pathetic.

Well, I'm trying to figure out if I should watch the whole game Tuesday or just Q4.

Bayless, Saric, Tolliver, Rose even Luol Deng in Q3. They saved this. Rose finished it.

Pete saying this was better game for Rose than his 50pt game against Jazz, couldn't be more wrong. That 50pt game against the jazz was a battle of battles. This game was against an 11 win team with a few of our starters sleeping for a few quarters.

Agree. Was a good Rose game but its not a game I will hang a hat on. Should have been a comfortable win.

I liked how Ryan used his depth this game. Nice long stretch in the third for deep bench guys. Some back in for the fourth as well. Even Okogie got back in for a few minutes and woke the pace a little after having a really poor start. Bayless did well. Tolliver and Luol played smart. Saric warmed up a little with that Q3 group. Taj played smart in the 4th. Rose reached into the 37 minutes though...needed him for win late. Maybe use him a little less early in games.

With all the talent the Wolves have, no way theyll be in position to pick Barrett and Williamson anyways so i wont bother thinking about them. Middling or not, nothings gonna change if Wiggins or Towns starts to play better and play with heart every single game.

This isn't the NFL though, the NBA has a lottery system. So they definitely could be in position.

They need one superstar before worrying about a second

Teague went out with something in this game at one point. Hopefully nothing serious.

I wonder if on Tuesday they could use Teague and Bayless more in the first two Qs. Save Rose for 3&4 more. This might also get Wiggins going a little more in the first two. Maybe build a lead this time. Then hit em with more Rose bench minutes in the third.
