Wolves only 2 point favorites at home shows lack of confidence still amongst those in the know.

Would be nice if we can continue an upward trend with ddv starting, and mike coming off the bench.

Ja morant may out-class us tonight, and who knows who will attempt to guard him.

Real test tonight. We play a good team, lead by Ja, better player than ANT at that stage after turning his head the right way. For me the last 4 games we win were not significant. Will see tonight where we are. Go Wolves!

We haven't won a Saturday game since October.

Heinous way to end the quarter.

The Wolves have to find a way to cut down the truly stupid turnovers.

It's quarters like this 1st one that you feel like Finch should be fired. A little bright spot here and there but so chaotic, undisciplined and stupid game play. It can't all be the players.

Midway through the 2nd quart the Wolves have 9 TOs and have given up 7 ORB to the Grizzlies. It's almost impossible to win when giving Memphis extra possessions at that rate.

Aggressive Jaden is a blessing.

Good game so far

Why so much goofing around/smiles.. show some professionalism.

Wolves playing some really good, fast, team basketball and then Memphis is just JJJ throwing up and making some junk.

Get some rebounds in the 2nd and this is a win

giving up 12 offensive rebounds in a half is ****** disgusting.

I don't know how the Wolves are ahead, the Grizzlies had 15 more FGA in the half.

Couple unbelievable end of qtr scores for Grizzlies. Hopefully Wolves could overcome that. Need to rebound, rebound, and rebound.

They need to get back to their lockdown defense. MEM shouldn’t be scoring 65 in a half against us.

Ant needs to wake up and come to the party. Jaden and DDV have been great and picked up the slack. Our rebounding is an issue, but it seems like we are very small and they are… NOT. We gotta get turnovers under control, and we need to gang rebound. We cannot count on shooting 60% all game. Gotta start winning the other factors if we want to win the game.

Gobert got to play bigger and Randle need to actually block out somebody. This is unbelievable ugly on defense.
