Yeah not good.


He’s back

I would really prefer that he just rest for the remainder of the game, not a fan of risking it. He’s still grimacing a bit and shaking out his knee, prior to the start of the third quarter.

Towns showing some stray voltage, need him to calm down in this second half.

Yeah, Anthony Edwards is moving really slowly out there. I’m a bit nervous with him being on the court.

I just super don’t understand why Anthony Edwards can’t make the incredibly easy pass when operating pick-and-pops with Karl-Anthony Towns. Middle school guards can easily make that read, I just don’t get it.

Minnesota really needs to generate more catch-and-shoot three attempts for Anthony Edwards, he is substantially more efficient when shooting off the catch.

To be fair; I think everyone is, but you are absolutely correct.

Marnie quit copying me. Come up with your own material. :lol
It would be really nice if we can get a basket in these last seconds.

Actually a decent lead entering the 4th over a pretty good Magic team. Take care of Business Wolves.

If we can get those two playing off each other well and scoring in bunches in the same game like Maxey Embiid or Murray Jokic, we would start roasting teams on offense.

Way to go Towns. Balanced back-in and shoot the baby hook

I guess it is taking Ant one person at a time. He recognized Conley, than Naz, working on Gobert, Towns is next.

Tired with JMD and Slomo.. One is just pretending playing defense today and the other so bad offensively.
