DLo out for tonight’s game even though he only played 20 mins last night.

They must have benched him since players and Saunders complained post game that players efforts weren’t there last night.

Ricky Rubio is listed as questionable because he needs to pass his covid test today before he can play again.

He said he tested negative the entire last week but he’s in protocol because he was in contact with Juancho who was positive.

At this point, it's mildly interesting to see how potent our tonic is. How will we repair the New Orleans Pelicans who are struggling? Will we give Lonzo a reliable jump shot for the next 10 games? Will Steven Adams become the best center in the NBA for February after this game? Will the Pelicans put together a 5 game win streak to right the ship? Stay tuned to find out.

:lol:

What rest.. Dlo barely played last night. Meh he usually don't play well vs lonzo or Bledsoe. Pelicans can throw Ingram at dlo too. His length would give dlo issues. At this point we're tanking for a PF. No team want to trade for our trash.

I wish Ryan would call out the wolves players for their lack of effort like Steve Nash is for his big 3 and they went 0-2

But Nash has credibility and Ryan has none.

Our "best player" in Russell has a -17.1 net rating. This team is hot garbage, thinking that Minnesota has a chance of winning with Russell playing is absurd.

The prob is I feel like timberwolves already fuq up drafting Edwards with the #1 pick... They're gonna fuq it up again this year. Hopefully we find a taker for Edwards and the top 3 pick this yr if we get it. We need win now players if we want to make the playoffs. Major major upgrades at Sf and PF. You need to surround dlo and towns with 3 very good two way players.

Dlo out again?

My bad...
I can't tell the difference when he's out there or not.

Hopefully Rubio plays and has a chance to really run this team and i'm sure we will see the difference.

Not me, either...he’s exactly what we all saw at Georgia yet some thought simply being athletic should be enough to overcome his lack of basketball skills.

With D-Lo "resting" I hope Rubio starts and we get to see what our wings look like playing full time with Rubio. I also hope Nowell gets an opportunity to pay meaningful minutes.

Probably won't happen, but I'd like to see Nowell moved ahead of Edwards and/or Culver in the rotation. Nowell deserves a chance while Edwards/Culver have pretty clearly earned a spot on the bench.

I'm not saying it's over for Edwards or anyone yet but man, Rosas has taken a huge hit with the start of this season. If it does wind up being that his two top picks are busts, the team he constructed is terrible, and there is little improvement by season end, it will be Kahn levels of bad and another disastrous situation for this franchise.

Unbelievable how bad things go for this organization, he has to be feeling some heat right now. You can't flop on two top 5 picks and 70 percent of your roster acquisitions. I'm also really curious about what his analytics were telling him when he made all of these moves, clearly, he was seeing something that is not working in reality right now.
