I just had a 5 Buck lunch at Little Caesar’s, and that’s the only thing DET is going to get out of MIN today.

MIN is better at 5 of 5 positions. I think we win by 34.

(... and Pistons fans don’t have a problem with it).

good to see Malik back on the court doing a free throw drill. I dont think he'll be back this season at all though.

I hear the Pistons are still playing hard so I don't think this will be a cakewalk. That said, even though we have lost 2 of the last 3 I think the wolves are playing with high confidence still so at the very least we should have a solid game from them.

Vando has been looking really good lately. He has really come on.

Dlo 0-5? Gonna b an ugly night for him.

We no longer look like an easy out. That feels good, we are beatable but you are going to have to work.

It's unfamiliar to see the Wolves shooting like crap yet still easily winning.

Man, Jmac has not been the same this year.

Ant is a EVERYGAME scorer now. That's crazy, he has grown tremendously, again he is in a Donovon Mitchel realm right now. As scorer today he is pretty much the player we were hoping rookie Lavine or Wiggins would become in a couple of seasons. He's so much better than I thought he would be. Really is gifted.

he hasn't had a single digit scoring game since Finch has been here

Ant when he is focused can be a damn good defender...some good defensive possessions from Ant today

DLo has been ice cold but other than that, pretty decent game from Wolves so far on both the ends

Good half from towns, ant and even Rubio.. Dlo not having a good shooting night. Need to man up and attack the rim. Too many missed 3s.

That's encouraging to me. There will be plenty of nights where guys don't have it but if we can still play well as a team, that's what you need. Too many times if a guy had a bad game, it was death for us.

Wish DLo would shoot a little less on nights like this. I really like DLo out there with another PG. I’m salivating a bit at the idea of Suggs, DLo, and Ant starting on the perimeter for us.

Following online and my jaw dropped to see 8 FT for Ant already.

The energy between the players right now is similar to the early Wiggs/Zach/KAT vibe. These guys like playing together. Different feeling than we had with the superior Butler/Thibs team, even when we won a lot of games it felt off.

Lol@dlo bricking that cute layup

I think because the game had a bit of a pickup game feel, the players are being a little too casual.
