Ant was questionable but now he's starting.

We need a win tonight.

Anthony Edwards needs to work on his footwork. The amount of on-the-line three-pointers this season has been pretty unfortunate.

Good shot-making outside of that problem, though!

I am consistently astonished at how this team cannot keep the turnover count down...7 turnovers already in first quarter is just ridiculous

Genuinely awful defense, tonight. Unacceptably bad.

What in the world was that D'Angelo Russell pass?

EDIT: Good pass the next possession!

This team for real right now? This is an embarrassment.

I cringe at these Gobert iso possessions..I don't mind them when the team is up by some double digits but not when you are down by double digits

This Rockets team has zero fear of Rudy Gobert in the paint

Its the same problem of poor defensive rebounding and turnovers....no matter who is on court, it feels like these are some consistent issues

What does it take for Finch to bench some guys?

Just when you think this team has finally turned the corner... It's going to be a long year.

Taurean Prince's leakout led to an offensive rebound. Fortunately, the possession led to a turnover, but I really disagree with leaking out after contests, given how awful Minnesota's defensive rebounding is. They cannot afford to do that.

Prince was playing with the starters instead of DLo during the run in last 5 mins

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
