Wolves vs Pacers GDT: establish home court advantage

26 seconds playing the foul game?

Too bad we are out of timeouts...

To be fair we used the timeouts to get back in the game

Yup.

That was a bizarre end to the game...

Yeah, I like the fight at the end, but we lost this game earlier when we just couldn't turn stops and turnovers into points. And their starting lineup crushed us: George, Turner, Young, and Teague all shot 50% or better and were making their 3's for the most part.

Paul george owned wig tonight. George and leonard are the guys wiggins can become in due time but he does not have the body and strength of those 2 right now.

How is that not a foul. And if they are not going to call the foul Teague was running out of bounds.

But the wolves didn't deserve the win. Hats off to the pacers they hit tough shots down the stretch

Need to take the next 2

Not sure he can ever match Leonard's strength as a defender and rebounder. That dude is an absolute stud defensively. And George is good too, but not quite as strong as Leonard.

I think Wiggins calling card will ultimately be his ability to score. He still isn't very efficient, but if he ever gets that 3-point shot up at a higher percentage and keeps getting to the line, he could be one of the top 5 or 6 scorers in the league.

I'm not sure he will ever be the two-way monster Leonard is and I know he won't be an elite wing play maker like LeBron. I still think he becomes the DeRozan we've seen the last couple of years: High scoring, solid efficiency, decent passer....just OK at everything else.

Derozan is a good example and gives good reason to give Wiggins another year or two to realize his offensive potential. I'm starting to lose hope that he'll ever realize that defensive potential tho. His non chalant attitude hurts him more on the def end than the other IMHO

It was interesting watching how Paul George got over screens when guarding Wiggins versus the other way around. Our three starting perimeter players - Rubio, LaVine, and Wiggins - all struggle to get over screens. I'm not sure if it's lack of effort, lack of strength, or what, but it's a major weakness of our defense.

Last 4-game win streak... remains 2012.

Some day... Some day.

Indiana is an uneven team, like many .500 teams. They shot better than normal. They hit some tough shots. And they were at the 1-second mark of the shot clock. Ouch. And they moved pretty damn well defensively. There might be something to them only playing Monta Ellis 14 minutes.
