Wolves @ Magic 7PM ET | 6PM CT | 4PM PST 

Post#1 » by theGreatRC » Wed Nov 16, 2022 8:13 pm

This is the team that spanks the Wolves cheeks for whatever reason every season. Every team has THAT team and this has gotta be that team for us (every team was whooping on us for a decade but you know what i mean)

HOWEVER,

No Paolo Banchero (which sucks because he's so damn good already and I wanted to see him play)

The two WOLF KILLERS Cole Anthony and Mo Wagner (This mf loves going against KAT) are out.

Wendell Carter is questionable, but Mo Bamba gave KAT the business last season as well. I guess what's different is we have Rudy now, but yeah.

Anyway, let's slowly crawl back to .500, hopefully

Ps- NAZ IS BACK

Magic are so depleted, old friend Kevon Harris could be in their regular rotation

Should be an easy W Orlando with 50 points and 16 rebounds out if the starting line up. Mitchell and Allen out last game for Cleveland the luck continues! :nod:

Haven't swept them since 2016-17 (our road win there). Before that, the last win in Orlando was 2007-08.

Magic are always a big problem for us, even when we are playing well. They also employ the double KAT/put a small on him technique that messed up his game so bad. I really hope we can get Rudy going.

This team is even less fun to watch than that Thibs wolves tam everyone complained about that was winning. Everyone was saying how that team had no joy, this team feels even worse. I hate it cause I watch all these other NBA teams and most look like they are having fun, we are so dour and confused. I want us to start winning but I want us to have some fun too. Even old bad teams were still fun to watch. This is just torture.

If Coach Crean attended every Wolves game, Ant would average 40 ppg.

Maybe it is because half the Magic are out tonight, but there is joy on our whole rotations face’s tonight.

Minnesota needed a good blowout win to regain some confidence.

2 great back to back first halves. Don't care if they are against depleted teams, we weren't capable of doing that against pre-schollers at any point before this season. Finish this second half strong, don't lose and don't give up a massive lead. Do that and it will be big progress.

I know with Orlando's injuries we are essentially playing the equivalent of a G league team, but I'll take a game like this not just because we desperately need the win but to help continue to build the chemistry we are lacking.

Rudy Gobert was rightfully upset with Anthony Edwards there. Dude was WIDE open.

Wolves will start rolling when they trade DLo.
Is BOL already better than Isaac?

After a nice start to the season Nowell has been mediocre.

What a Load of CR AP.
He 100% held back on that play. He could have annihilated the guy.

We really doing this again? We just totally turn into one one garbage offense when teams start making their runs.
