That being said... who cares.
This is what Wolves fans have been waiting and waiting for. A significant stretch of promising play and even dominance from its key young guys ---- that leads to wins.
I like this take. I think it is great that their strengths are complimentary at this point. We need them to both become great on both sides of the floor. We seem to be moving in that direction. Let's hope it keeps up.

Great observation
Yep felt the same way. Wiggins has been so good lately you expect him to come in and get some points.
The Kings really played hard and played well and then the Wolves just took over.
Skal looked good dude is very long.
Rubio is really being more aggressive looking to score. He is also playing with flare bad doing all those Rubio things we love to see. You can argue he is is having a career year under a coach that supposedly has to have a scoring PG.
Which brings me to another point. People seem to forget Thibs has gotten a lot out of undersized PGs that can play. He doesn't dislike Tyus my guess is he likes him quite a bit. Rush is such a specialist that Tyus is going to continue to get run until another player is capable of playing SG is added to the roster. we know Tyus can play he is a fun player to watch.
Joerger looks like he is a hockey guy with that hair. When did that happen?
Everyone covered everything else I think. Dunn continues to look like a functional basketball player although he got beat a few times off the dribble.
