I would like to know what the objective is on these offensive possessions. Seems like a ton of guys trying to win 1 on 1 matchups. But there is no other off ball movement so I it seems like the plan
If I didn't actually look up stats and only watched Wolves games, I would think Dillon Brooks is an all-NBA shooting guard. He just KILLS us every damn time.
I will give this team a pass for a few games because they are one of like five or six teams to not play in the bubble so it's been a LONG time. That being said Edwards is showing aggression, made a nice pass on the fast break, and his rebounding looks promising

really? I thought he was trying to spread the ball around early but had to start firing because he was the only one hitting
The guy looks like he's stoned out there. Throws lazy passes all the time. Sure, he makes some Threes, but he's a pretty inefficient scorer overall, and the ball movement isn't good. Would much prefer that he wasn't on the team (especially having Rubio now)
I just don't think Russell is a max player. If he were making 15-20/year, that'd be fine. I think there's 2 or maybe 3 teams in the league that would have paid him the max (gs only did it as a placeholder)

Yes, other than the unforced turnover, it's night and day with him. Good to see.
I know Culver made that 3, but his form on that shot looked exactly the same to me as last year with that late wrist flick versus a smooth release. Oh well.
