I swear I don’t get the wolves. They’re so up and down more than a rollercoaster

Donte DiVincenzo is totally rattled. He's passing up wide open shots.

They play to the level of their competition. It's been an issue all year (honestly for multiple years).

Gobert looking out of place on offence, they need Ingles to show them how to use him in a pick n roll.

Heck let Ingles play a minute or 2 to mix it up

Good, he shouldn't be taking any shots right now, he shouldn't even be on the court.

Grey said teams take the identity of their best player. Ant is lackadaisical.

Randle opts out of so many help defense situations.

Not convinced by this wolves team in all honesty.

This team plays down to their opponents too much. Either that or Im giving them too much credit and this is actually their best.

I haven't been paying attention, is there a Steph Curry update? Wasn't he slated to be evaluated for game 5? Is that still possible?

I dont know to be honest.

Looking this bad against a curry less warriors is crazy imo.

My thoughts after watching this first half are the same as after G3.
People have been saying this series is over for a while and all I see are two very close teams.
One is more talented than the other and is supposed to have more weapons but it's meaningless if that advantage is only on paper.

Thats a lie and you know it :lol: :lol: :lol:

Dray gets away with so much foul crap i think he'd have to shoot someone to get an instant ejection.

i watched enough Green game to say that. He has done a lot of stupid things but also get ejected a lot by stupid calls

Couldn’t be worse than Conley or DDV

This is basically a carbon copy of game 3, I fully expect the Wolves to separate in the 4th.
