Wolves just don't have the fire power if Ant is sucking
For those who just look at the box score and see Ant 27 5 and 3 he was not good tonight. He tried to be Steph Curry tonight and failed. He scored 16 pts when the game was over. Obviously I would rather have him score in garbage time then not at all but box score does not tell the story on him tonight
Edwards shot 5-8 in the paint and 4-14 everywhere else. Weird. Just absolutely weird. The guy's making 60.2-percent of his shots within 0-3 feet and 31.8-percent from three. And he thinks his game is one of an outside shooter. I get that he's 19-years old, but you either understand your strengths as a player or you don't. Self-awareness is key and he's lacking it right now. Ultra talented. Ultra athletic. Might be ultra dumb on top of it.

3/7/2 in 31 minutes. You love to get that from your starting point guard. Hopefully he's better next game... or in a different uniform.
Kudos to Hernangomez and Nowell for making shots off the bench. It didn't make much of a difference, but they did their jobs for the most part. Culver was Culver. Layman and Vanderbilt were forgettable. McDaniels made a three. And team defense is still an issue. Minnesota lost by 20 and Luka Doncic was off his game. Awful.
If Kirk cousins could watch the phenomenal job Ant just did collecting empty stats at the end of the game he would probably shed a tear with a knowing nod

Gotta make it look good for that very important ROY run.
When Ant is taking so many shots and not hitting, yes we are screwed. Towns is getting more shots which is good, but our 3rd leading shot taker tonight was Juancho with 9. On the one hand our most capable offensive players are getting the most opportunities, but there isn't enough ball movement and the offense isn't in sync. We could take a lesson from Dallas and the way the ball moves for them.
I think this game explains why good Ricky will never out do bad Ricky. You never get any consistency from him. How can he be a veteran influence when he is equal parts 1-7 on one night and equal parts 4-12 on another. Only the stuanchest of fans look past his 9 years of inconsistent play. Name another player in any of your favorite sports that bring so much average play that you contually go to bat for. Then give me a reason why.
