Then the defense looks just as bad when dieng comes in.
Offense + defense can be related for many guys. Is the lack of touches for KAT recently affecting him defensively? Or, is he not 100% and it's showing up on both ends of the court?

I think it does, but thibs strongly disagrees. The lack of touches does seem to effect kat on the defensive side.
The Wolves need to take more advantage of their shooting they have on their roster like playing Belly more and getting him the ball when he is open.
The Wolves need to acquire and develop more 3 point shooting. I think Tyus at some point can develop into a guy that's actually a shooter but he isn't there yet.
Continue to find a comfort level with the players we have finding timing wishing the half court and finding more opportunities to push the pace. This itineration of the Wolves is still just a few months old with 4 of the top 8 or so players being new to the team and various other guys being relateively young and inexperienced as NBA players. There is still upside to this offense even this season he even more beyond this season which should be exciting.
