Only catch the 2nd half but wig was great. Attacking and getting to the line and MAKING the fts! Hope he plays close like that for ryan.
Saric was great with his hustle and activity. Wish he could have make more of his 3's but he played well. Right choice by ryan in going with him over taj to end the game.
Scary fall for noel. Hope he will be okay. Hate to see players get hurt accidentally in a basketball game. I hope wig wont hesitate to attack like than next time. It was a clean and strong attack by wig that just didnt end right.

And 10 rebounds. lol
New Wolves, New Max Wiggins.
Also loved that he made the right passes off his drives and kept doing it despite Saric and Okogie missing multiple open 3's. Then FINALLY Josh rewarded him. Beautiful.

So, anyone think wiggs is happy to see thibs gone?
Close to most unexpected. We've kinda had OKC's number in their house, which I know is unusual for us. Also, we have the Ryan Saunders honeymoon going on and you could tell the players were juiced to win this for him. I might be more excited by how excited they were for Ryan than in the win itself! That bodes well.
That was a really nice, hard fought win. No Roco. No Rose. Teague gets himself tossed. And Towns puts himself in foul trouble. Yet the team still pulled out the win.
Okogie's defense on Westbrook was really pretty good, considering Westbrook absolutely smokes most guards.
We finally have a coach who is willing to make offensive and defensive substitutions back to back to back (Saric and Taj trading off). That is a great great sign if you ask me. It's the type of thing you see big time coaches make when necessary.

But honestly that really isn't big time. Coaches have been doing this for years. It's just one of those things that for whatever reason Thibs didn't do. Regardless, it's refreshing to see.

On Teague....I didn't see the first half, but I saw "bad Teague" in the 3rd quarter. Ya know, the one that holds and dribbles the ball too long. Tyus comes in and things started to click better. Plus defensively, he gets so many tips and recoveries.
