Is it just me or is there a kind of mini-me situation with Powell and Josh Green
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?
Please advise….

Dwight Powell is just the spark the Wolves need

This is what i am most interested in before deciding who to back in that series. i don't know how Luka handles or reacts on that one with possibly 3-4 guys getting the assignment he has to be even more versatile as the series goes.
Right. I'd guess Holiday would start on him, then a rotation of White, then everyone else, with some blitzes.

Another double digit lead for the Wolves. Very early but this feels bad if they lose this, how many times have they had the big lead this series and lost it?
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

Ant doesn’t trust Rudy. He’s been wide open for lobs but he won’t hit him.

Celtics will try to tire him by targeting him on defense. It will be mostly Holiday guarding him though.
