I think the Wolves are gonna stick with Bazz and try and get him to be effective. They went FAAAAARRR out of their way to get him here and he has his things he can do well. Notice tonight there were at least 2 post ups that when the double came he passed the ball and one of those led to good ball movement that gave Someone a wide open 3 in the opposite corner. I'm not saying he is awesome but I do think there has been some progress there. If he can ever hit some 3's that's a game changer. Nobody is holding their breath. Having said all that I'm intruiged by MGH. I think he is gonna get some minutes at some point this year beyond garbage time.
What happened to dallas tonight is what happened to us all the time in previous years..
A bad team losing to a playoff bound team after starting well and building a double digit lead in the 1st half. Only for the better team to get their shit together in the 2nd half and routed the lesser team.
Im not happy with the effort in the 1st half but I'm glad we got to turned it on in the 2nd half.

Who is everyone?
Poor Bazz. The one Wolf tonight with a negative +/-. -7 in 7 minutes I think, lol.
Really happy with how we just turned the switch in second half and that defense was great. The fact though that a switch needed to be pushed is frustrating. This team has no reason to rest on its laurels when we havent won for 13 years. I want to see effort the whole game. When you get paid millions to play a game effort should never be optional.

God it felt good to be on the other side of that coin. You are absolutely right.
Rewarded with a spot on the bench (to be fair taj has been good)
That scares me, Tibs is so ridged with his rotations. Belly should of stayed in the game. We can win a game without Taj, he a borderline starter in the league, not a HOF'r for Christ sakes. There are so many ways to get him in games. He can play well with with Kat, Taj or Gorgi, possibly even a few minutes at the 3. I loved that hockey assist from Kat on that Belly 3 I'm the 4th. I think Teague made the extra pass. In a lot of ways Teague is the key, when he's agressive and not hesitating we're a different team.
My theory is that they don't want to play him heavy minutes because he has had problems staying healthy going back to his days playing internationally. Taj has been really good also. Look at the front court/bigman rotation right now when healthy. Towns/Gibson Belly and Dieng. That's pretty good andbig reason why this team can be good this season. Belly playing well espcially shooting the ball and looking healthy is a fantastic development so early in the season.

Ya I don't think many people have stuck up for Bazz this year. He has been real bad. Probably had one good game this year

For a guy who hasn't complained about thibs minutes. I thought it was bad tonight. I think Thibs got frustrated at belly PnR defense against dirk because this was showing anger at belly after dirk was getting open 3 looks

I didn't think the effort was actually bad in the first half. There was some bad spots but they couldn't buy a bucket and that hurt their D some too. They didn't come out flat like they have in a couple other games. More energy? Yeah but it wasn't embarrassing. The effort really ramped up midway through the 2nd quarter imo.
