You think they may rest their big 3 for tomorrow's game and just let Wolves play down to the competition level? They don't really need this one and have bigger fish to fry

Highly doubtful. Was more just showing that they have their share of ailments coming in. They may pull a plug earlier than normal if things aren't looking good too.

Elevation....7 players left in the rotation? Who else will get minutes tonight?

I'm not too worried about elevation.
In my opinion, I'd expect Jaylen Clark to get his minutes bumped up, and I think Luka Garza will get around 5-10 minutes. Conley and Alexander-Walker will make up the difference.

Now we are in trouble. It's looking like the Pacers game. Just kidding, DEN's bench is nowhere near Pacers and they don't have Toppin. However, are you sure that is not an April fools joke?

Why is Rudy Gobert starting on Nikola Jokić? The entire reason why Minnesota plays well against Denver is that Rudy Gobert can roam off of Aaron Gordon.
Baffling strategy decision.

I said yesterday if we started out and punched them in the mouth, they might circle the wagons, rest the team, and get the win tomorrow.
Well, that didn’t happen.
Still, only four minutes in .. plenty of time

I am sick of Finch’s bad coaching.

We are the worst team in the NBA in the first 5 and last 5 minutes. Finch should resign.

I haven't started watching yet and they are down 21-5? What the F*? This is without Murray and Porter? I am too busy watching Curry.

Clark is being too aggressive

just need containment. Don't need a steal every time.
