Re: Clips@Wolves - A New Era Begins!
Not sure who the hell to give the game ball to. KAT with nearly a triple double; Beasley with a career game in 3's; Reid with nearly a double-double in less than 15 minutes; James Johnson with a swiss-army knife of a game on both ends...Mmmm, who am I forgetting?
JMAC BABY! 11 assists, zero turnovers, 24 points on 14 shots. What a game!

Re: Clips@Wolves - A New Era Begins!
I missed the fourth quarter, but that was a fun first 3 quarters to watch. The ball moved and even the bad 3pt shooters were making shots tonight. It's not sustainable to shoot 60% from 3, but I'd rather watch this as a debut than a let down so I'll take this. Now we just have to see how these guys respond when they aren't a literal inferno from 3.

Pretty nice debut I would say. Nice to have a 20 point scorer that's just not filler points.

Well that was a damn fun game to watch lol. What a crazy shooting night.

Love his energy and competitiveness. Not sure about his ceiling though honestly. I think he can be a great shooter and seems to work hard, but his size and lack of any other elite skill-set I kinda think caps him a bit. Yet by Wolves SG standards, he's a god, lol.

Such impressive play tonight. It was so nice seeing our guard be active and move rather than sit at the three point line. Cutting and active hands. Felt like I was in an alternate universe. Simply awesome.

Don't worry, they'll coach him out of it!
Re: Clips@Wolves - A New Era Begins!
The most impressive stat of the night = 39 team assists. That's unheard of!

Well that was fun. Maybe we should have traded this year's 1st instead of next year's.
Seriously though, this roster fits an up-tempo 3 point shooting team with active defense so much better than our previous group.
That said, I watched a bit of the start of the GS/Lakers game and Wiggins seemed to have a bit more active feet on defense early on. And from the box score...5 steals? 24 points on 12 shots? They should trade him while he's on a hot streak.
