Its going to be a long couple months, it appears. Maybe Clark can spend some time on Steph and Jaden can guard Yax
No no, I've been told the team will be more fun to watch and it's actually a good thing Ant is out
Maybe in his absence we can find out if he makes his teammates better.

Looks like one of those Curry nights.
Is anyone else concerned about how poorly Rudy is so far putting the ball in the hoop. I think everyone assumed LaMelo was going to set him up for his best.
One of the things I noticed is that LaMelo often doesn't wait long enough for the screen to be set by Rudy. I get why sometimes a guard will reject a screen by a big if the defense is anticipating it and gives them an open lane, but he's just going too quickly sometimes before Rudy is totally set for the screen. It makes it easy for Ball's guy to get over the screen since it isn't completely set yet.

He's been absent before. We miss his gravity for sure, as far making his teammates better that's where melo comes in and why we needed him in the first place.
Rudy is a terrible offensive player. Always has been, is now, and always will be. To me his defense doesn't make up for what he costs us on offense. Just my opinion.

That point was always inevitably going to come and maybe we are here.

The narrative would say the Wolves won't miss him from that standpoint. This will be good data. Also good data for the TC vision of what this team needed.
