Happy MLK Day!

Should start NAW instead of Conley. Conley is a great backup at this stage of his career.

Wolves as cold as Minneapolis winter to start -7 today.

Garza in!

Bad start but we are making a push.

Looks Gobert is hurt? Or maybe need some rest?

Basketball is a funny game. I remember Aldama making 3s and every shot against Wolves the last game and today he couldn't even hit FTs

Phenomenal turnaround mid-quarter. Ant with 2 no no yes 3s and defense was really good. MEM only 1 more FGA.

Rob with really impactful minutes. I trashed him the other day but he hit a big 3 and two BIG rebounds defensively there.

Let's go boys

That was one of the ugliest starts to a game I've seen in a while, for both teams.

It's also so weird seeing a team go 11 deep in a game, let alone in the first quarter.

Great pursuit by Gobert to get down the court to break up the fast break!

And then we get to see Dillingham turn on the jets! That was fun!

Need to start a lengthy conversation on NAW

You gave him the motivation he needed. Any real production from him would be great especially with NAW falling off the cliff.

Randle these last 3 games has been REALLY good. He's 1-5 for 2pts right now, but also has 4reb, 2ast and 2blks, doing all the little things in the right way. Hustling defensively and not forcing anything offensively. This is a positive player if he can keep it up.

NAW needed that basket to go through more than anyone.

I am very encouraged that he is impacting the game without scoring.

Yes, and he could also have more assists if the Wolves had knocked down a couple of his good passes.

Defense is looking engaged

JMcD is shooting horribly this year from 3s.

Meh closeout to the half but otherwise one of the better halves all season. This lead could and should've been bigger, Naz and Randle missed some bunnies at the end.

Sit him and play DDV and Dilly. End of story.

Rebounding a lot better today. Also helps when Grizzlies turn over the ball 9 times vs our 5. Usually it's Wolves turn over the ball more.
