He doesn’t need to hang the season up, just take a week or two off. Plenty of time left to see him play with Dlo, but only if makes it to when Dlo is back.


This seems perfectly timed for Dlo's return right as Kat goes out again. Because this is actually hell and we are to slow to realize it earlier.


That’s not inaccurate.

Most of them get benched and Culver comes out and puts on a clinic.

Why not just move Kat outside if they are doubling paint? Send the rookie at the net repeatedly and just tell him to break things.

I’d be down for a 30 point Culver second half outburst right before the trade deadline.

You must have missed the entire first half of this season then


I've seen every game and I hate myself for it..

I honestly don't know what to expect though, like I want us to do well, but I don't want us to give the pick to GSW so it's a weird time to watch this team


The way I look at it is that if the Wolves get to 6th in draft lottery they still have a 28% chance to keep the pick, but the Warriors only have a 9% chance of getting a top 5 pick. If the Wolves stay as the worst team, the chance to keep the pick goes up to 40%, but the Warriors would have a 60% chance at a top 5 pick. If the Wolves lose the pick I'd much prefer that GS doesn't get a top 5 selection. I'm guessing Rosas would also prefer that GSW doesn't get a top 5 pick, because that will make the trade look like more of disaster than it has already been.

That Thunder have so much length it’s tough to finish in the paint when they sag down. However,
We keep trying because Layman, Vando, and Rubio are on the floor and struggle to shoot.

It's only a disaster in your head and your rhetoric reinforcing it in your head. It's absolutely nothing at all.

Yeah I could enjoy that. Would like to see something different right now.

Right when Layman starts finishing through contact this Poku guy starts turning Steph.

I’d settle for 7 on 3 of 3 made shots.

He still only has 8 minutes. Nowell with 12. Times have changed. But if it was really flipped Nowell would have 24 right now.

Why do we keep running into the paint? Thunders length is ridiculous.

McDaniels offense has been really bad for a few weeks now.

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
