Why didn't Ryan take timeout there? Considering how much this team panics in crunch time situations before, taking a timeout there would have been better, especially with 2 TOs still remaining

Thank God we got a W. Cavs were really careless and they should have gone to their bigs more. Give wolves some credit, we did play some defense but man, I think the Cavs shot themselves in the foot over and over and we, fortunately, capitalized more than normal off of turnovers.

We need more shooters bad.

Edwards puts together a full game of star level production.

I feel you. I would say okogie out of rotation unless needed. For D’lo we should lessen minutes, but we do need him to close games out. I do think for d’lo given his horrid offense he should b the first starter pulled and give him some minutes with 2nd team.

Edwards needs to stay in starting lineup.

Some credit needs to go to the team, I suppose... But bro, Cav's having 19 turnovers was always going to increase our chances of stealing this win.

It's going to be really interesting to see the rotations when the Wolves get healthy. Vanderbilt, McDaniels, and even Nowell have made a case for moving ahead of Okogie, Culver, Layman, and Hernangomez.

I suppose it comes down to whether or not Ryan has the wherewithal to actually recognise this though - That's where my concerns are anyway.

Okogie, Culver, layman, Herna suck.

I couldn't disagree more. Give him a chance. He needs playing time. He will be a super solid player. He can score.

Solid team win.

Ant should start rest of the year

Beasley should be in the most improved player race

Nice bounce back game for Ricky Rubio. 8pts 8 ast

McDaniels is the future 4 of this team. 3 blocks

Nowell is the Payless Beasley for the second unit

Ant playing well with NBA level players on the court at the same time as him, who would have thought?

I want to see a lineup of:

DLO
Beas
ANT
Vanderbilt
KAT

Once we're at full strength(if we're ever at full strength)

Agree Okogie needs to come off the bench. He's shooting .167 3P% for the year.
