Hot hands night for Rudy. He's caught multiple interior passes that often he fumbles and turned them into buckets or nice passes to the open shooter.

Ant, Rudy, and Jaden just putting together a 2-way clinic here in the 4th quarter.

He's actually been good despite the shot not going down. If the shot starts going down, he'll go from a good to great 6th man IMO. Unlike Reid (sorry Naz!), he does a lot of other stuff out there to impact the game when he isn't scoring. Terrific passer, cutter, a pest defensively, and good rebounder for a guard.

He started slow last season before being on fire the last 40 or so games and playoffs. Hopefully just a slow start and not the dreaded forgot how to shoot when they come to the Wolves curse. Other guys off to a slow start from 3, Luka Doncic is shooting 32.9% on 9.9 attempts per game, Tyrese Maxey 28.6% from 3 on 11 attempts per game, Jaylen Brown 26.7% from 3 on 7.5 attempts per game. I'm not worried about his shot, he has been great at everything else and fantastic feeding Rudy.

Does anyone remember the all but 3-4 years in the history of this franchise when we would play very well for 3.5 quarters and the opposition would blow us out in the 2nd half of the fourth quarter because they had more talent and experience and we kind of sucked?

So true about all the other things he does. I actually have him as "great" now, and as his shot starts dropping, I will move him to "greater". NAW had an off game last night, but every game it seems that one (or both) comes into the game and totally changes the flow...at both ends of the court. I still don't know where this team is going to end up with the alck of intensity of our starters on the defensive end, but they sure are fun to watch on offense.

Nice bounce back game from Jaden. I love how Finchie (and Conley) try to get him going at the start of every game, and last night it paid off...he made 13 out of 14 total shots (including free throws)! I think we all want more from him in other areas (last night only 2 rebounds, 1 assist and no steals in 33 minutes), but the shooting and foul avoidance were good to see.
