66: Wolves @ Denver 

Post#1 » by Loaf_of_bread » Thu Mar 13, 2025 1:59 am

Betting public doesn't like us. Denver 3 point favorites at home playing 3 games in 4 nights.

We are well rested and healthy. It's time boys to step it up.

I don't have any idea who wins tonight. Denver at home has to be a 4 pt favorite tonight would be my guess.

We can win it though. Joker will get his. Nothing we can do about it . We just have to limit the other guys. If we move the ball like we have and shoot a decent percentage, we can take these guys tonight. We will miss KAT on Joker tonight. We'll see what Rudy can do.

They have figured out a way to make Randle fit by having him be more of a facilitator and scoring inside. It's working and allowing Ant to do his thing. Even Ant has been passing the ball more. The unselfish play has me excited for the first time this year.

How about McD and his mid-range game. Pure money.

Will be a tough one, but interesting. Hope we play like we did last few games. Ball movement, everybody involved. Go Wolves!

Ant looks lethargic to me, hopefully he turns it on. This is an important game.

Great start . Our defense is definitely better when Rudy here.

Mike Malone looks like he’s ready to call it already. Denver playing sloppy and two quick timeouts

That was sloppy to finish the Qtr Ant needs to shoot less 3s. Try to draw a couple more fouls even though he doesn't get the call

Definitely seems like pushing the pace is strategically asked for from the coaches.

We are going to let Jokic score 60 pts but win the game :D Let's also win those non Jokic minutes

Finch should learn timeout management from Malone. Use 3 TO in first qtr if that is what you need to prevent your team from going down 20. :D

I am glad to see Wolves are trying to find Gobert. Do that a few more times, it's going to open up things up for everyone.

The fountain of youth is in Denver. Westbrook is playing like he is 25 years old.

Just inconsistent since Feb. Some bright spots here and there. Tonight just can't get it going.

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
