Is it like the mascot convention in Minneapolis today?

There we go, Ant misses the hard-driving layup and Rudy hits the putback dunk.

Then Ant with the lazy pass leads to the turnover.

Portland hits another shot, up 6 on us.

McD hits the layup off the drive. Good to see.

We went to zone and let Eubanks shoot an awkward floater from just inside the elbow and he hits it. Ugh. This is embarrassing. We should be smothering these guys and they're out-hustling us.

SloMo hits the shot.

Then Eubanks hits the 3 from the top of the key.

Steal leads to a Conley 3 and we've cut it to 4. That's embarrassing to write.

Ant with the Euro so slow into traffic he didn't have the energy to get the shot up to the rim.

Portland going back to the line. They're attacking with velocity and we're settling and waiting for things to happen. That's the difference right now.

Can't believe what I am watching right now...

KAT backing down his defender, feels the defense come, passes to SloMo who taps it on to Ant who finishes from the dunker spot.

Ant with the finish and the foul. Things looking a bit better here offensively, but we need to defend better.

On League Pass they don't show the commercials live, and what I'm hearing is Jim Pete and Marney talking to the guys in the video booth cueing up video and talking about plays. Pretty cool. They're probably about to praise SloMo for his timing in facilitating this combo of passes that led to the Ant bucket.

Chauncey Billups with the gray beard. Looks cool.

Two straight risky passes lead to turnovers.

Portland with two offensive rebounds get the outback.

Ant with the lefty layup. Just looks automatic when he does that.

ANOTHER turnover. Three in the last four possessions.

Aaaand more Portland free throws.

Just check the score online, not sure if I want to tune into the potential worst loss for the Wolves in the last decade

You would think all the losses this year to bottom of the league teams they would have learned something, but alas, we learn nothing.

Towns goes to the line.

Wow, John Butler. That dude is skinny. I remember hearing about him on the podcasts last year but this is the first time I've seen him. Dude is a beanpole.

Marney and Jim joking about how they really had to research this Portland lineup before the game. And we're trailing these no-names.
