Wolves aint going anywhere though. Not once they get by the lakers and to better teams. Rudy is a huge liability in the long time as he is such a worthless big man. ANT is too streaky and inconsistent. Not superstar material yet. They have good supporting help, not real 1-2 superstar combo punch

LMAO.

Man has probably the worst game he's ever authored in the playoffs, and definitely the worst series, and he "sent home a superstar."

That is not what happened at all. LA imploded and Minny won that series with offensive rebounding and defense, and other guys coming through.

I'm all about giving the team credit, but I think you might be overstating the case a bit. Even last night, 8 assists with no turnovers as the primary offensive driver is pretty crucial

5/19 shooting and 0/11 from 3 was pretty bad. The passing and his ability to jump passing lanes were nice, no doubt, but he hasn't had many games worse than that in his playoff career to date. That could have been a disaster for Minnesota if LA wasn't totally cooked.

Agreed, but considering the amount of double (or more) teams he was drawing, the shooting percentage probably understates his offensive impact in that one.

Obviously making shots is better than missing shots, but 8 assists no turnovers (not to mention hockey assists) with that kind of consistent attention is no small feat

Only so much. He was a flagrant waste of skin from 3, and spending a lot of his time doing that instead of more useful things. The passing was good, but man, shooting that badly in volume offsets that pretty significantly. That's a 7-point game. And don't forget, he was 2/11 (0/6 3P) with only 3 assists and 5 points in the second half. That, if you don't recall, is the half where Minny scored 22 points in each quarter and could have let LA take it if the Lakers hadn't absolutely crapped themselves in the 4th quarter.

It seems like you just don't like the guy for whatever reason.

You are overly fixated on his shooting percentage in the game which I would admit was undeniably bad. Somehow, the Wolves were still +12 in his minutes in a 7 point win, 2nd highest behind only Rudy cosplaying as Wilt. This should suggest to you that something other than his shooting is driving his impact and that focusing solely on his shooting is not a good way to view what he's doing.

He averaged 4.5 asts to 3 TO in the regular season. The Wolves were such a bad clutch team because of his low BBIQ in those moments. He's at 5 asts to 1 TO in the Lakers series, an elite ratio, on his same high usage with great decision making in the 4th. The Wolves won those 4th quarters because they put the offense in his hands and he delivered, minus game 5 where he deferred to Randle for most of it.

How was this definitely the worst series he's ever played? His shooting splits were actually average for the series before that shooting catastrophe in game 5 and he put up 27 8 and 6 in the series

I have already acknowledged that he had other value outside of his shooting.

And yet you said this is the worst game and series he ever played.
