Should be a loss, Wolves play Jazz tonight but got the Rockets tomorrow which they hopefully win tying us for 2nd

I actually expect a win tonight. Sadly. Then min will win and we still will be 1 game back. Ugh.

i'm torn on winning vs. losing now with 11 games left. earlier in the season i was cheering for wins because it was good for the young guys but knew we would still have a bad record.

but now in the home stretch with teams like ORL falling fast and OKC right behind i'm leaning more towards cheering for losses, which is weird for me.

atlanta doesn't have trae young but they're still playing well without him, which bodes well for tanking purposes.

Atlanta is playing well, but this smells like a win to me. Do not want.

I was looking forward to Tony Snell having a career night, beating us with the game winning shot.

Oh well.

Same here. I think this is a win. No Young, Hawks won a hard fought game last night. Perfect recipe for a tank buster IMO.

Someone teach Sekou how to hedge a screen before Hayes gets a concussion. Good Lord.

Killian Hayes is looking real good on defense and with his passing. His dribbling is fine, not great but it isnt causing him to turn the ball over unforced.

Have to eat some crow for right now.

He needs to become a scorer, thats the way the NBA works unless you are Gobert or Ben Wallace.

Right now he is "quick hands" Hayes.

Once that offense develops Hayes is going to be pretty good.

Hayes has a ton going for him right now;

Elite vision, elite hands, very good man defender, good slasher and good floater.

If he works on his right hand, and improves his shooting, he is a perennial all-star guard.
