Agreed. Thought he defended well too. He has GOT to get rid of that horrible step back long 2 though. That is just a terrible shot unless the shot clock is winding down and that's all he can get.

Disagree. He does a lot of good things out there.


I think he does off the bench. Fine player, just glad we didn't overpay for him which is what I think you would have had to do to get him away from Utah.

You guys simply must give this at least 10 games before we start making claims as to what we can and cannot do. The only one who can mess this up is the coach. Stay the course.

I'll give them 82 games, but I won't wait that long to be disappointed!

If you're disappointed already your early season expectations are out of whack.

Heh, we hear that every year. "Give them time....."

I remember last year we were supposed to just keep getting better and better as the season went on. Didn't happen.

I get it, but I think long-suffering Timberwolves fans have a right to panic, even when not justified on an intellectual basis.

Probably, but he would have been the PERFECT 3rd wing for us playing with Butler and Wiggins. Shoots the 3 well, moves the ball, defends, does a bunch of little stuff.

I agree my expectations are unrealistically high, but Q nailed it for me! I don't have patience any more after 13 years, none, right or wrong.
