5 fouls on Naz now.
Rest in peace Mamba. There'll never be another Kobe.

Beasley almost just ran right out of the stadium on the fastbreak. that bounce for D'Lo was so lucky too.

Dlo brought some lucky roll with him.
Beasely drives wild and rough like Cov and like Okogie. WHat can you do? At least he kicked back.

This gritty end of the game could be a nice learning experience/building block going into the break and their likely first sets of practices since the trade.
Rest in peace Mamba. There'll never be another Kobe.

Finishing at the rim has been the biggest issue in this match

No one is perfect except for LeBron or Kawhi. So what...Russell has most everything else. He only has 26-11-6 and is a plus 16.
What do you think about that?

Is Ryan too scared to challenge a call? Never seen him do it.

I like our defense on that possession, even though hornets scored in the end.
Without KAT we really could be a top 10 or better defense.

I suppose if your 16-36 team is going to lose, it’s best to lose to a 17-36 team.

I'd rather go into the break with a game like this than a blow out.

I think the Wolves are going to be extremely careful with injuries that guys would play through in a more competitive year..
If we're tanking tonight we are doing a very poor job of it or the Hornets are masters.
The Wolves put in a tank worthy performance in the second half.
