This is a big game for the tank, T'wolves look very good lately, especially KAT.

So let's get this L? I guess? :lol:

We are going to have a tough time stopping Wiggins/Shabazz in the post that's for sure but we don't really have to respect Rush/Rubio meaning Darren and Ben/Hield will have more energy to score on the other end. Interesting match up cause unlike the Hornets they have zero lock-down defenders on the wing. This is the game that will show sort of where we are truly at in some ways.

Win or lose, hope we all can agree that we better be playing the rooks and WCS a lot tonight.

Well, prepare yourself to see plenty of Ty Lawson, Anthony Tolliver, Kosta Koufos, Tyreke Evans, and Darren Collison. :lol:

The way Joerger is playing Ben is how I want to see him play Buddy. Lets get that usage up! I want to see 20 shots this game.

Tank watch.

Philly down 7 to Warriors in 3rd quarter.
Knicks somehow in front up 6 against Raptors at the end of the 3rd quarter.
Bucks who are 2 games back of us is losing right now to Cavs in the 3rd.

*Important tank game Mavericks vs Heat just started. Need a Mavericks win here.

Is it weird that as bad as I want that pick, I still can't ever root for us to lose. If we do lose I'm certainly not as mad as when it happens earlier in the season. But I badly want us to win everytime. It's big for the young guys.

Best for the future right now unfortunately, like it or not, is to get two lottery draft picks in this upcoming deep draft.
And to be able to get both draft picks, we need to lose more games than win.

I could only ever root for the team to lose when Dumbarcus was here. I just want them to develop and hopefully win currently.

WCS to start according to Grant in the pregame very good

JohnWillow · Post #13 » by **JohnWillow** » Tue Feb 28, 2017 3:34 am

I hope Joerger will not start WCS and Koufos together.

Didn't think of that maybe he's trying to match the size of the Twolves with Dieng/KAT....I hope not would much rather see Tolliver or Skal starting.

JohnWillow · Post #15 » by **JohnWillow** » Tue Feb 28, 2017 3:39 am

Lawson/Collison/Mclemore/WCS/Koufos starting 5

KingsMilz · Post #16 » by **KingsMilz** » Tue Feb 28, 2017 3:40 am

Double C and double PG combo tonight I guess since Rush is not a threat to post up or offensive rebound going with 2 PGs is not bad...Ben is going to need some help in the paint that's for sure

JohnWillow · Post #17 » by **JohnWillow** » Tue Feb 28, 2017 3:41 am

And ofcourse you put Mclemore on Wiggins lol

Ben just did a eurostep jumper. I've never seen that before.
