our big 3 playing well so far but 2/13 from deep is a problem. Minny made nice offensive adjustments

Wolves using the .5 concept in driving is proving effective in getting more open lanes and scores at the rim. Good adjustment.

OKC is clearly the better team. Better defense and gettung better shots but bricking so it doesn't matter right now. They missed at least like 6 uncontested 3's already.

Makes me so mad. It’s how they lost to Dallas. Don’t need to do that! Especially Shai, helping way too deep


ANT said he watched a ton of Doncic footage and you can see he's trying those same passes into the corner from double teams. Wolves getting some clean open looks.

I wish he learn the lob pass.

Kind of crazy how quickly OKC makes you pay for stupid mistakes
