Really enjoying what I'm seeing out of these new look team. There definitely will be growing pains adding 2 new guys to the rotation, but damn I like what they bring. They hustle, and seem to just get it.

And now I see Towns on the bench in the last timeout making fun of Covington's butter fingers lmao.

I mean he has 11 first half assists hard to complain to much

Right? lol I'll take this new (old?) version of Teague all day.

Yeah, you can see how he kills spacing unless kat is out at the 3 pt line.

My guess is that Thibs gradually gets Saric more and more minutes as time goes on and Taj either goes to the bench eventually or becomes more of a token starter. We'll see, but that's the path I think it might take since Saric may be our PF of the future.

Sometimes teams can't seem to hit a shot even with mediocre defense, sometimes the defense plays a major role in those misses. Although it wasn't perfect, for a stretch there the Wolves were playing spectacular defense. Driving people of the 3 pt. line, hands in the shooters faces, deflections, steals, blocks. Pelicans are a playoff team baring injuries and we really shut them down (especially AD) for a while. Even if that's for a quarter or something, in todays NBA, that brings a tear to my eye.
