-Minnesota has a 5-5 record when it scores 100+ points. (1-19 when 99 and under)
This was a huge debate this offseason, but it seems to be working in our favor early on this year when we get a chance to run...

I think it says more about our defense, I'm looking at you, guys in Klomp's avatar.

We're 3rd in pace yet have the 2nd worst record. So I would say it's not working at all.

You have to rebound if you want to be getting up and down the floor ...
It could be suggested that Loves return has improved team rebounding, and ultimately, boosted our transition game.

I would say that says a lot more about the offensive efficiency of the Wolves, considering they are third in pace. My team in 9-1 with average pace and offensive efficiency, so I wouldn't necessarily say it has a huge impact on record.

good point MnWi. My understanding is that EFF shows that the tempo matches the talent of the team. A spurs team with high EFF plays a low pace. Phx wins not due to the tempo, but due to the EFF.

So basically it's what we've known all along; at this point we don't have the talent to win.

So the Spurs/Suns win not because of pace but because they say "EFF THIS!" whenever they get a bad call?
