Hoopshype has Finch saying everyone not in protocols will play tonight. Only minute limits will be based on player conditioning, “especially in the altitude.”

We hung with the Celtics & Knicks with our G league guys...we have Ant back who is capable of dropping 50 at any moment, but with this being his first game back, i'm expecting a lot of rust. Vando being back should be huge too. I think we can win this even without DLO & KAT but the Jazz have a really nice bench with Clarkson, Whiteside and Gay all playing really well (and I guess Ingles moved up since Conley is not in)

The network didn’t realize that in the passionate photo of Rudy Gobert they used pre-game, he’s flipping someone off!

Good start from Ant after the break...Beasley with an absolutely low BBIQ play..why would you foul a 90% FT shooter near half court when Jazz are already in bonus

Either shut down the 3 and the PnR or just give up now.

Wow! 0-3 for 3 in ONE possession. Wolves season in one possession.

The shooting is the biggest head-scratcher this season. Maybe we can miraculously turn it around by progression to the mean in the second half of the season. We have been an ice-cold teal all season. Annoying to see these other teams rip off a number of threes.

Ever since we took out the parquet floors at Target Center we have been a horrible shooting team. Had some good shooters, but not good shooting teams.

Look at the freethrow disparity. Even Rudy Gay gets calls
