Wolves got outscored by 15 in the fourth quarter and allowed 39 points in the frame. Chris Finch won't be happy about that, and rightfully so, but at least they can study the game film after celebrating a win.

It helped that ANT and Jaden could care less about a drive since the Mass had to have a 3.

Props to Kyle Anderson settling down the team in 4th quarter

Can't wait for Kat to get back and see what this team can become

A great win on the road against a very good team - or a good team with two great players. Lots of contributions. Edwards and McDaniels are special. Anderson' s a nice guy to have in the rotation.

Agreed, some of it though is 2 HOF players went nuclear, I know I mentioned the stops without Rudy in the game but I think Finch made the right choice going small because when those 2 are in that zone we need buckets because nothing is stopping those 2

Agree with you there. Also Luka is like the best intentional miss guy in the league

Irving played 40 mins

Luka played 36 Mins

Christian wood went off in first half

Point is Dallas did everything they could to win this game and couldn't pull it out.

Failure to get stops in the 4th was frustrating and troubling. But in today's NBA sometimes you just have to outscore your opponent. That's especially true when you're playing teams like Dallas with two elite scorers. I'll have to watch the video replay for a better sense of what went wrong defensively in the last quarter.

If you haven't yet, you should count the Wolves among the likes of the rest of the West. Teams need to hang with the Wolves. Everyone is making a deal about who the Wolves face the rest of the way but guess what? They have to face the Wolves too.

This team has built up some grit this season and I love it.

Wizards and Hornets coming in for a back to back Thurs-Fri. No excuses, we must have two wins before we head out on the road again.
