Didn't finish, but that was a nice move by Jaden McDaniels.

Why do these really bad teams give us fits? We can never have an easy win.

Lucky to be down 2. One of the few times the opponents has more turn overs but Rockets 35 rebounds vs Wolves 15. Wolves shooting 23% from 3s.

11-3 Houston run to start the 3rd.

We have no answer for Sengun. So why don't we get Garza in there for Reid. Let's see what he can do.

Ant has shown up but not many others have. 38% from the field won't get it done.

We are getting outrebounded by 20 at halftime and FInch's solution is to go even smaller?
Are you a G-League coach or a big boy coach? WTF shaking my head.

Naz Reid cannot defend anyone or grab a defensive rebound in traffic, he has been absolutely atrocious the past few games.
Luka is by far our most fundamentally sound big defensively, and I'm including Gobert in that, who looks lost half the time.
He has physical limitations, but Luka understands angles, wall-up, and verticality.

This team is beating themselves, they look like trash tonight.
We are just so fundamentally bad in so many areas.
Its basically a layup line with these trash lineups Finch is throwing out there who can't defend or rebound.

Can someone stop Ant shooting that end of quarter 3 pt shoot? It goes it like 1 out 10 times. We need a better play to end a quarter.

Dude has really hit his stride. I like him. He and J Pete work really well together.

Nate is turning intro the 2023 version of Craig Smith, one of my most believed bench wolves bigs.
