Not for me. I never expected to keep the pick so I'm not sweating it. So we win, I'm happy to build culture and keep collecting W's. We lose, I'm psised we blew it but happy to get higher odds. Basically, the only way I really lose is if some horrible injury happens to one of our guys, baring that, these last 6 games are just gravy, I come out on top either way.

I coudn't agree more. We're building a new culture here and losing is not acceptable. Simple as that.

I hve a funny feeling we're going to keep our 1st this year. 30 years of bad draft luck pays us back.

Jimmy Butler is ridiculously strong. He can guard KAT with strength and smarts.

Vando's game has been superb for the moment.

Every game Towns is in foul trouble. Teams are scouting that too and attacking him more to take him out. It's a good strategy, get Towns flustered, he will take himself out of the game and the wolves are much easier to deal with. He needs to step his mental game up this off-season.

Vando plays with fire on both ends, and takes pride in stopping his assignment even if its a guy like Butler. Sadly, on the other end he continues to struggle with his hands of stone.

Right on all. I really thought he was smarter. Disappointing.

I like Dlo at shooting guard hunting shots. That’s his best IMO

I had such high hopes for him when we acquired him from Denver. Hands of stone is appropriate. What a shame? Little by little he's getting better though.

The scouting book on Towns seems to be to play him with extreme physicality, because if the refs aren't making calls he'll get frustrated and do something stupid.

The biggest thing I hope we fix is complementary players for this team. We just don't have a good fit in most rotations.
