The KAT Jokic stopper narrative has been going crazy since the playoffs. People are gonna be burying us if we drop this game.

The Nuggets often switched Gordon onto Ant last year, but having Randle will probably make that a lot more difficult.

We have to go for more offense. Randle and DDV still not efficient as were KAT and Slomo in defense. ANT and Randle has to score 25 each. And coach, please let the ball in hand of Mike or DDV at clutch time. ANT is not ready yet for this and TO the ball way too much. Go Wolves!

The Wolves are still making too many mental mistakes on defense that are costing them points.

We got a ways to go if we want to look anything like the defensive team we looked like last season.

I am a fan of running all these different lineups. We can handle regular season losses. Might as well figure out chemistry.

Need a bit more ingles..he will be integral playoff time.

I disagree with most today :). For me elite first, defense could been better but great offense. Lots need to avoid stupid TO but on my opinion, we play well. Go Wolves!

We really have to get the dumb turnovers under control. Between those and giving up offensive rebounds the Nuggets took 9 more shots in the 1st quarter. It's nice to have the lead, but hot shooting isn't going to save us all night.

Of course I am. Finch is resting him a bit for the playoffs, but we need to see where he fits. Dude is old-school trash talker.. can rattle the best.. you will see my boy. Joe will get run when it matters.

Is Westbrook the worst player on a roster currently?
