Happy Birthday, Thibs - Wolves @ Spurs GDT

Kenny Mauer and crew have become whistle happy. Great atmosphere here, though!

Not a bad start espcially defending Aldridge.

Tim is the arena as empty as it looks?

Yeah, I was surprised at the number of open seats to start the game. We must not be a big draw... it's filled up a bit more now.

It's been a while but there was some stat that the Wolves were actually drawing middle of the league in road attendance and then there was a conversation about how they track that but they didn't say.

Man Rubio might get 40 tonight. Lol

Yeah, but he has zero rebounds. Scrub.

Andrew Wiggins would be wise to watch, study, emulate Kawhi Leonard's game. It's simple (in a good way), efficient, effective, and still within himself. You rarely see him try to get too fancy with his handle because he knows he doesn't have it like that. You rarely see him turn the ball over. He creates for teammates. He moves the ball out of double teams with the understanding that he could still get it back. And defensively, he's engaged every second. Leonard is who we want Wiggins to be. Will he ever get there? Probably not, but I'd take a poor man's Kawhi all day. That's still a damn good player, and one you can certainly win with.

Yeah. Leonard is also a superior shooter to wiggins and that's a big deal.

[60WinTim]

Hmmm. 8-man rotation tonight?

And yes, Leonard would be a great guy for Wiggins to model his game after.

The last game I attended was the loss to Detroit at home. We were awful. Definitely a huge improvement on both ends of the court! Still lots of mistakes or poor decisions being made, but at a much less frequency. And the "connected" play can actually be seen now, on both ends of the court.

Solid first half. Now the dreaded second half. And I already drained my wallet!

Yikes. Some really ugly basketball right there. Just have to remind myself that these guys are 21-years old. Just became old enough to legally purchase alcohol. They haven't quite taken off their diapers yet. Still shitting themselves from time to time.

Well put. Lol

Rubio is dealing passes like crazy right now.


Aaaasnd then he throws a poor turnover that leads to easy points for the Spurs. Oops
