Now, let's tank!

That game was the start of a 5-game losing streak for the Wolves (four playoff/play-in teams and Washington). Since the 11-15 start, they are 34-19.

What a turn around.

Since our 14-8 start, it’s been 20-36 since!

Finally playing the young bucks together for a good stretch.

Why the hell Porzingis is in the game is hilarious. But at least we got the call overturned.

For next season, I’ll resign Sato to a cheap contract for sure. He fits this team very well. Smart and solid defensively.

I haven’t watched many games recently but tuned into the first half for a bit. Is that the first time we’ve seen KP and Gafford on the court together?

Also, Deni looks like he’s turning the corner. Love how aggressive and confident he’s being. If we don’t land a starting point guard in the summer, I’m all for inserting Deni into the lineup as a point forward. Move KCP back into the backcourt with Beal, and roll with:

KP/Gaff
Kuz/Rui
Deni/Kispert
Beal/Sato
KCP/Ish

With Deni in the lineup, and Beal and Kuz’ improvement as playmakers, along with KP’s passing ability, you have enough playmaking that I don’t think you necessarily need a traditional PG in the lineup. Go big and prioritise defense.

Going to screw around and get a win here...

Gafford, Deni, Rui, and Kispert have all played well and efficient combing for 48 points,18 rebounds, 10 assists, 2 blocks, and 2 steals thus far.

It’s the Wizards way…

It hasn't happened often.

T-Wolves trying to hurt the tank. Finally showing some life.

I heart watching Gafford-Rui-Deni-Kispert playing all together and extending the lead even if it hurts the tank.

This would be a real bad loss for the Minny seeing that they are trying to get out of the play-in.

If Wes puts the vets back in I'm going to lose my mind. If we are going to blow an excellent tanking opportunity we better stick with the young guys to let them get experience.

Ish (a meaningless player) leading the anti-tank trying to pull out the victory (a meaningless win).

If you're going to anti-tank, you do it with the young bloods.

The problem with the tank is our young players are our best players

They couldn’t defend the pick and roll tonight. My God.

The Clippers will beat them in in the first Play-In game if they’re gonna play like this.
