Cavs playing much better today and it shows. They have really stifled our offense too. That said if we can get flowing we can still win but we need to start making something happen. This zone has really disrupted us, no one can score.

No size and some bad 3's by us.

McGee and Allen might be better than Drummond/Nance. Drummond didn't seem completely in great shape or anything. I haven't seen Love play ball in years.

The good news, we have been horrible on offense and so far we are still in it. Got to find ways to score in the second half.

Edwards has been great at making plays for others yet we never let him. So annoying. Let’s watch d-Lo jack up crap shots. Come on Saunders get a freaking clue.

Dlo did right thing attacked and and scored at the rim 2x in 1st Q then resorted back to taking bad long shots.. Really inefficient the past few games. Not playing like a Max salary player.

He will. He just needs a bit more strength and those will become throw downs... Edwards should be doing the same thing

Wolves are pretty awful tonight. It's tough to win when shooting 25% on 3s (37% overall) and getting outrebounded by 14.

Too much DLo and Okoge, not enough Edwards and Beasley...also McDaniels needs way more run with Edwards on court

Dlo is behind in minutes already.

Edwards has already been initiating more again. Last game, in a win, Dlo started slow shootintg and warmed up later to put the game away. Stayed on the court a lot, even was getting Edwards going in second half. Saunders doing different things tonight. Even playing an 11th player. Because when you win...change everything! Right?

Starters have been junk tonight.

Need to play way better.

This would be a shame to lose tonight.

It seems like the Cavs are focusing the defense on shutting down Beasley. Unfortunately there is nobody else in the starting group that can do anything on offense.

But this is a little bit like how I open my big mouth too often and remove all doubt. Too many minutes and asking too much just removes all doubt.

The bolded is me to a tee mate ha ha ha

Edwards and Beasley have the most minutes already. If we are losing it more on them than anyone. Edwards shooting ok, beasley isn't yet.

Edwards needs to start postering McGee. Knock him back a peg or two.

Bench was the only thing keeping score close. Their minutes are quickly falling behind.
