Grizz at Wolves, Redux GDT

Ant pulled a D-Wade with that chase down block!

(of course it was him not getting back sooner after missing an outside shot that led to that layup attempt to begin with, but moving on....)

Malik Beasley has quietly sucked tonight on both ends of the floor.

KAT looks horrible on the defensive end and continues to commit dumb fouls. In that sense, nothing has changed. But he also appears to be in a major funk. His shot is off and he's committing turnovers you typically don't see from him. His head's not fully in the game and I understand why. But at some point, he'll have to pull it together.

I think it was Britt Robson that said if there is a PnR and KAT has to make a choice whether to close out on the ball handler or stay tied to the roll-man, he pretty much makes the wrong choice every time.

I do think Ja Morant deserves a tip of the cap however. He is going to be doing this to a lot of teams this year. Really good player.

Never thought I'd see a worse post entry passer then Teague but DLo is worse, Pathetic. But hey he lead a team to the playoffs. Lol.

DD's take is legit. Timing could be better, but D Russell is a streaky shooter and doesn't really contribute much else.

Thanks. I'm just saying that we're paying the max for the leftovers that nobody else really wanted. Kinda depressing that we gave up our lottery pick (let's be honest) for "the right" to pay that guy the max.

Ricky might be a bit pissed that he's not starting and so cut him some slack. I watched him plenty of times last year and he looked quite good, but he was surrounded by better players. He also was World Cup MVP not so long ago. He just turned 30 and is 5 years younger than CP3, so I don't think he's washed up yet.

Anyone know why Nowell hasn't been playing?

Yeah, you nailed it. I feel the same way.

Being pissed makes him slow?? In any event, it's not like Ricky to get pissed about not starting and then to act out of the floor. But maybe he's pissed that he's on a bad team. I'll definitely cut him slack if that's his beef. This is a really bad team. And Ricky might have lost a step, but he's not the core problem. The core problem is the team's core, along with the coaching.

First half was more than quiet.
