Vando is massive tonight. The Bucks are also pretty small right now though, they don't have Lopez. We just really need some size and reboundinghelp. The guards also have to be aggressive on the boards. Jason Collins of Turner would be cool but will take a role-playing big who can board right now. Like a Robin Lopez.

Rebound is roughly 70% positioning + 30% aggression.

Vandarra still missing some of the 70% but he makes that 30% actually count.

Beas has had some low key good passes.

Pelicans are only down two to the Hawks, really impressive.

Probably the best 3rd quarter of the season so far for Wolves..did better job defensively on Giannis in this quarter..can't do much when he is hitting those 3's though.

Vando is taking a huge step forward tonight. This should do wonders for his confidence.

If Giannis is hitting three's he's the best player in the NBA. Got damn monster.

Never seen a pg as repellent to attacking the rim like dlo.. Way too many long jumpers. He's shooting 50% but all perimeter shots.

THAT VANDARRA'S OFF REBOUND WITH A KNEE ON THE FLOOR IS THE SICKEST THING I'VE SEEN THIS SEASON!!

(Aside Simmons, Flatearthian Irving and Sarver, of course)

Wolves already have enough size, they just need to be more focused on rebounding. A lot of teams across the league only play one big guy at a time whether it's Denver, Phoenix, Miami, Memphis, Milwaukee, Utah, GS, Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, Portland, Philadelphia etc. I can only think of a handful that plays two legitimate bigs in LA, Atlanta, and NY. At the end of the day, doesn't it just come down to KAT becoming a better rebounder? Wolves already got ancillary rebounders around him in Edwards, Okogie, Vanderbilt and/or McDaniels around him in the starting lineup. That's a lot of strong, high fliers that should be able to be productive on the boards with KAT.

The Bucks are a poised championship team. Even if they are missing some players, this is one of the best teams in the league. This game is super big, our play is really encouraging. Lets get the win!

Seem like only towns, McDaniels and vando know how to reb on this team.

Would really help to get a bucket here, coming out of the timeout.
