I do kinda wish Minnesota signed a more directly experienced announcer, but hopefully Grady grows into the role as he gets accustomed to it.

Grady is going to be terrific. He’s coming off a job with the Nets he was attached too and got married with half of our production team at his wedding this summer. He’ll ease into Minneapolis culture as the season progresses.

Reid getting absolutely dominated on the glass. I've counted 5 times Naz should have gotten a rebound but didn't.

I think he will. Thank god he isn't a cliche driven big mouth.

He'll need time to get some chemistry with Jim Pete.

Yep. That's his achilles heel. I don't know how much better he can get on the boards.

Nets have taken 13 more shots than we have so far.

I finally saw him make a nice basket floater on the drive. Coming out of college I thought he'd be all-world. He's not.

Durant crying about his foul call on Rudy!?? He pushed Rudy in the chest backward on the drive. Come on!

I really like that play action at 2:40 in the second quarter.

On a properly officiated game we are up 10 at least. The 3rd foul on KAT is a great example. Ant drives and Kyrie smacks his arm near the elbow. Ant loses the ball and it turns into a fast break the other way. Instead of 2 free throws for Ant and a 3rd on Kyrie it is and 1 and 3rd foul on KAT. This kind of BS has been going on all night.

I think Ben Simmons sitting with five fouls in eleven minutes would strongly contest poor officiating causing a twenty-five point swing towards the Timberwolves, especially given the eighteen to twelve foul advantage in favour of the Timberwolves.
