GT #58: Bullets @ Timberwolves 8 PM (NBCSW/980 AM) 

Post#1 » by FAH1223 » Thu Feb 16, 2023 6:04 pm

YOUR Washington Bullets are 27-30!

They got their revenge on the Blazers in PDX on Tuesday night. Now they're in the Twin Cities to face the Timberpups for the last game before the All-Star break!

The T-Wolves have fought to get themselves above .500 and now sit in the 6th spot in the crowded Western Conference. Mike Conley Jr. has already had an impact by reuniting with Rudy Gobert. Jaden McDaniels and Anthony Edwards LOCKED up Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving to win their last game in Dallas.

Your Bullets beat the T-Wolves at the end of November in DC behind Porzingis' 41 points. Karl-Anthony Towns remains out with the injury he suffered in DC that night but is expected back after the All-Star break.

I expect Coach Finch to not have Gobert guarding KP tonight.

I can say with near 100% certainty that Kuz will try to do too much this game.

Let's just hope his heater continues

I get a weird feeling Edwards is going to eat our lunch tonight.

WUJ just watching, doing nothing as we are being completely outplayed. We have no energy with this starting group, get some hustle players in there.

And as I predicted Edwards is killing us.

Completely outplayed. Our “big 3” looks like a bunch of G leaguers.

By the way- Corey Kispert is again unplayable in defense. Sorry, he does not belong…situational 9/10th player at best.

Embarrassing effort by the starters, and WUJ so keep playing most of them.

I like Kispert, but he's been really bad on defense last couple of months. Just out of position a lot, bad positioning, backing up a lot.

Love watching Beal look off Deni going to the rim for a pullup three... :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

...and missing. Just selfish, stupid ball.

Embarrassing Kuzma not sitting on the bench, he has been awful on both ends of the court.

I know there’s a lot of Nunn love around here these days. But a lineup with Krispy and None couldn’t guard the Washington Generals.

Krispy will eventually find his place in the league with a disciplined, structured program that can get him his shots in rhythm and hide him on D. It won’t be here.

Really predictable. If Kuzma could, would consistently play within himself he’d be valuable. As it is, he helps us, he kills us. The perfect middle build treadmill player

Porzingis schooled by freaking Reed and then Deni can not hit the side of a barrel…nightmare game all around

Return to Washington Wizards
