Game 7 (3-3): Charlotte at Minnesota, 8 p.m.

[TimberKat]

Not a fan of wolves marketing pushing voting.. keep that out of sports.

That's an NBA thing unfortunately, not specifically the Wolves.

Not just NBA, so is NFL. They aren't telling you which side to pick but just participate. I have no problem with that. Although, if you don't do your research on the candidates and fact finding, I encourage you stay home.

[Calinks]

What a pass by Randle!

[Nick K]

Randle can really dish. Now if he would only give a rip on defense.

[Loaf_of_bread]

I am slowly entering the "will listen to offers" phase. In terms of value to us versus value to them, he might be the most easy to trade, along with a big enough salary to net a return. Could allow them to keep others this offseason.

We are wing heavy, and needing a big. Could be win, win with the right team.

not really, Jaden is really the only player that can guard a Luka/Kawhi type player
and even then he's too skinny
ANT is next best option, but he does enough already

Randle, naw, Naz, ddv, Ant, Joe, jaden... they play defensively as wings. Naz sucks defensively as does randle.. Kat had glue on his soles, but we have no prowess down low. We can absolutely afford losing jaden...

[TimberKat]

CHA maybe the only team that this Wolves team still look like a big team. I missed last year's triple center lineup.

go see what happens when you put any of those guys on a ball dominant big wing

one of the Wolves biggest weaknesses

Anderson last year was safety blanket for Jaden's foul trouble

putting DDV or NAW on a 220+ lbs big wing would be a joke

[Nick K]

McD is 0-6 so it's time to sit him. I'd give Minott a shot right now.

[wolves_89]

Jaden is a guy that has some of the longest extended stretches of good/bad shooting that I can remember. Most guys are hot and cold game to game, while Jaden has weeks long hot and cold stretches.

[Calinks]

When Ant said he studied Curry over the summer I didn't know he meant he actually got his Masters in Curry.

[FrenchMinnyFan]

Great first. Better defense, only 4 TO, Mike shoot back.. Jaden still struggling. much more close where we wanna be. But it's only one game and against Charlotte so i'm not overexciting. But it's nice to see. Go Wolves !

[wolves_89]

I really love DiVincenzo's game, the only issue is that he needs his 3s to start falling.

So you are stating then that jaden's impact defensively as a wing outweighs our defense down low. I'm sorry, but I am not as high as you in terms of jaden being a player we cannot function without. His contract kind of sucks in comparison to his production.

[younggunsmn]

Well Charlotte has absolutely no rhyme or reason to anything they are doing on offense, but our defensive effort looks better tonight.

WTF were they doing taking on Grant Williams and his terrible contract that guy is a huge net negative out there from both a chemistry and skill perspective. That was an awful trade.

I really hope we can hold off a team starting an 88 year old Taj Gibson at center against us.

[FrenchMinnyFan]

I really love DiVincenzo's game, the only issue is that he needs his 3s to start falling.

It will come. Just have to be patient. But he bring energy and defense. Tonight i'm happy as well with the defensive effort from NAZ. Which for me mean that he can, just sometimes he does not make the effort.
Go Wolves !

it does

but you said moving Jaden for another "big"

yes, I think the Wolves lack of players that can truly matchup with the big wings is that problematic
especially in playoff series, where teams just relentlessly attack weaknesses every possession

[younggunsmn]

Why did Katie get demoted from her studio gig to sideline girl?
I can't stand listening to Marney for an extended period.

I guess we see things differently. All good.

[m2002brian]

wtf is up with the free throw shooting. Get the Free **** points.

[Calinks]

I'm not worried about Donte's shot. Shooters shoot. I didn't care about Beasley's many bricks and Donte does a lot more than Beasley did outside of shooting. It will come, we need him to be a gunner so keep gunning.

[Nick K]

I rip Jaden so he makes a few shots and is back playing well.

Randle has real explosiveness on the offensive end.
