Kat is flat out an amazing player. No player is perfect but Kat s/b and all star.

Damn it KAT you missed a FT :lol:

Seriously there are a lot of Wolves fans here who don't appreciate him. I'm not one of those.

Wow defense seems to have become optional as both teams scoring at will down the stretch of the third quarter.

I gave you a +1 because I like the thinking, but odds are against him getting 4 more dimes in just over a quarter.

To be fair, KAT stopped passing because he became a molten lava flamethrower. If he plays in the fourth he might get there, if not a 30/10 game is good consolation.

Ingles was driving and planted his left legs with a defender on his right hip and he stepped wrong. Kind of a fluke injury. Hope he's OK but it didn't look good.

I was confused by the fact that they called JMAC for a foul but it looked non contact. The foot looked like it planted when it wasn’t supposed to. Looks like an ACL tear, but time will tell.

That's just the way I saw it too.

For the life of me, I don't understand that. Nobody is perfect.

Ant looks like a natural PG out thereby the way he passes the ball. He's just a natural.

I like what we've been getting from Prince too the last 7 games or so. Quality veteran minutes. Finch is rewarding him with more minutes.

Wolves shooting 53% overall and 43% from 3 at the time I type this. I would love to see that shooting continue. McDaniel 6-6 so far.

Prince was looking like a lost cause early in the season, but now he's proving to be a good addition to the team.

Jaden McDaniels is 7-for-7 with 3 three-pointers?!?

Nick K · Post #30 » by **Nick K** » Mon Jan 31, 2022 3:00 am

How about McD tonight? Has he been good or what? 18-1-3. 7 of 7 from the field. He's the quiet assassin.

I love that Utah is finally getting a taste of what it’s like when your best players are missing for multiple consecutive games. They are nowhere near as good on defense without Gobert, and nowhere near as good at offense without Mitchell.

Talk about the heart and soul of the team being out. They get zero sympathy from me.

They got all four games against us with at least one of our big 3 out. They get no sympathy from anyone.

I almost posted about being 7-7, but I already beat you guys to his hot shooting by posting about him being 6-6.

KGdaBom · Post #36 » by **KGdaBom** » Mon Jan 31, 2022 3:08 am

I'm probably going to jinx him, but KAT 0, zero, zilch, nada TOs tonight.

Nick K · Post #37 » by **Nick K** » Mon Jan 31, 2022 3:11 am

Kat's got 8 assists. He's close to the triple double.....

KGdaBom · Post #38 » by **KGdaBom** » Mon Jan 31, 2022 3:11 am

McD 8-8 now. Can he finish the game without a miss? KAT just needs 2 more dimes for the trip dub.

winforlose · Post #39 » by **winforlose** » Mon Jan 31, 2022 3:11 am

MCD with his fourth power dunk. I really hope Finch and the guys work to get KAT his last two assists.
