GT: Game #27 - Charlotte Vs Minnesota (Feb 12th)

KAT’s back - which is great for him but terrifying for us.

Interested to see Edward’s. I watched a few games of his earlier in the year and was very unimpressed.

Tae is currently listed as "questionable".

Russell is out for tonight’s game.

Both Martin twins out for tonight due to health and safety protocols?? This would be the first time in-season that we're directly affected by COVID (Monk was mainly pre-season). This and Graham being questionable really doesn't give us much leeway with depth tonight.

I don't know why we sent McDaniels to the g-league bubble. He's a better player than Biyombo and with how PJ has been playing it might do him some good to have to compete for minutes.

He is being recalled for tonight. Wish granted.

Edit: McDaniels still has to go through protocols, but he should be available for the next game.

If I can't find a stream for tonight's game, I may buy the radio play-by-play. Is the lead announcer, Sam Farber, any good?

Now PJ's out too??? Is this game going to get postponed or what?

It does seem like Graham will play... Is JB REALLY gonna put Melo back to the bench? He'd be an absolute fool if so.

"Borrego chose to start a three-guard lineup of Graham, LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier, which would move small forward Gordon Hayward to power forward. Cody Zeller is the starting center.

There is no indication yet how long Washington or the Martins might be out. The Hornets recalled forward Jalen McDaniels from the G-League bubble. McDaniels wouldn’t be available to play before at least Sunday’s home game against the San Antonio Spurs."

Maybe we can get Zeller and Richards in the game together.

JB is so stubborn. Tri-Guard, just wtf

LaMelo LaFrance Ball?

More like LaMelo LaPesky Ball!!

Fortunately, the Wolves are as cold as the -8 degree weather in the Twin Cities right now. What a takeaway by LaMelo!

We never talk about this, but LaMelo is a way better defender than I imagined too.

Rich4114 · Post #18 » by **Rich4114** » Sat Feb 13, 2021 12:22 am

What would you guys offer up for KAT? If we had him with LaMelo and Hayward we would be top 4 in the East.

Yes, he is improving by leaps and bounds.

Gordo just can't get one to drop - even from his beloved mid range.
