This isn't fool's gold, they're actually moving the ball and playing smart. Like they did earlier in the year.

The Wiggins one he again wasn't watching the play then looks over seeing Wiggins driving. Wiggins read the D and saw JV not paying attention and drove pass DeRozan after he gambled. The Wiggins one I can give a pass on but the other two I can't, since he just had to make a simple rotation to protect the rim.

I'm a JV fan but I'm going to let it slide when he makes an obvious miscue as the last line of defense.


watch the replays please. both bennets dunks he was in no place to help. he was coming full speed from 3 point line ffs...

Hello that fact that he wasn't even paying ATTENTION TO WHERE THE BALL WAS IS INEXCUSABLE.


maybe he didnt expect the innitial pnr defence to collapse so easily?

Hey look, Casey just figured out that when the opponent goes small you can stay big and punish them in the paint. Only took him a couple hundred games.

Small things, but like how DD gave up the ball after that pumpfake. Normally he'd shoot that contested jumper

Minnesota won't mind after this draft when they nab one of Towns, Okafor, Russel, Mudiay or Winslow.

When's the last time Minni has been over .500? Hell .450?
