Nickeil Alexander-Walker isn’t giving Minnesota anything on either end, right now.

NAW has regressed in last few games...bit disappointing to see after a good start.

Kitty is lookin gooood! We are so much harder to defend with Kitty as a threat out there.

We have the makings of one hell of a team. I don't see why we can't put it together.

I don't understand the negative KAT talk. He's one hell of a player!!

I want him here for years.

The Lion is out of the cage. Doesn't it seem like he is more surgical in going about his game? The sit and watch seems to help. Maybe don't watch those Gorilla fights in pre game claims him down :D. No complaint on calls yet. That is another good sign.

He has flaws and I hate how he nags the refs but he is easily one of the best to put on the uniform. Top 5 wolf and his ability to get buckets is really underappreciated.

Good to see Jaden picking up his scoring since Ant went down...we badly needed more scoring from other starters without Ant

The stop short + flail combo by Trae Young kinda sucks to watch, in all honesty.

I got a new one for Jaden. The Blizzard. When he's on you, you can't see anything because he clouds your vision. He is cold as ice and he freezes you up. If you can't find shelter away from him, you will have a bad night.

He is scoring, playing great D, guarding the best 1 to 4 player every night, hitting 3s. If he develops a consistent scoring move, will be an all star.

Along that line - how about Whiteout? Jim Pete already got him as Quite Storm. Too many weather conditions in Minnesota.

Lol. Towns being back doesn’t fix the actual problem that exist without Ant. Shot creating.
And the defense is worse.

Also. If your 3rd quarter woes exist regardless of player personal. It may just be the coaching. Just maybe.

How they give Trae that call is insane, swings his arms in a jumper and kicks out and they give him 3 free throws

The 3rd quarter has been this teams best quarter since Feb 1. 2nd and 4th have been the bad ones recently.

2 and 4 recently? Like the quarters where having a shot creating guard really helps?


Also. All that time sitting watching and KAT still can’t recognize a double team or wide open guys on the perimeter? Come on man.

Just a brutal game to watch.
