Tiny sample size, but NAW’s perimeter defense has suffered and he’s not a starting caliber player so far.

Yeah, I’d like to see Brown and if he can shoot like last year

Absolutely NO to bringing Harden here.
On another note, our PnR defense is terrible. Also not a fan of drop coverage. The bigs back way too far.

Slow start again. Bam is such a killer in the mid range.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
I was hoping we would have a more structured offense and look a lot better, definitely not the case so far. This is really concerning because that was our biggest issue last year.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
The 3 ball is absolutely killing us so far.

Gotta defend the two-for-one better than that. Nice defense on the final possession, though.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
Damn. Well just going to hope it starts to look better the more we play, very messy right now.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
Rudy has played well this season so far. Naz too. Conley’s been okay. Everyone else needs to wake up, especially KAT and Ant

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
Other than Ant, the rest of the Wolves have started the season shooting 16% on 3s.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
This version of Rudy is the best we could have hoped for. Defense really struggles when he's off the floor.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
Yea Rudy has been great but everything else has been bad and the team really struggles to look cohesive. I thought we would look a lot more together than this.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
So many mental mistakes. The Wolves have given up multiple backdoor dunks and committed a number of unforced turnovers.

I think the second unit did a pretty good job with their stint. Miami is killing us with their off-ball movement, though.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
Shake has not looked good either so far, might be another in a long line of super disappointing guard FA pickups who looked great at first.

Re: Game 2 | MIA @ MIN
Shooting cost us a lot. Have to improve the 3 by 10pct. Hope mike find his shoot and Kat too.
