Agreeance. I said this when Teague had an 18 assist game recently and was shredded on here, but I've lost all respect for that stat when I saw he had 11. He doesn't wanna be on the court.
Jim pete said it towards the end of the game. It's all about lineup combinations gentlemen. We have some versatility on the roster but Tibs has no clue how to use it or coach a modern style of basketball. I won't even go into how bad the lineup combinations were tonight, horrendous. Gorgui needs to be out of the lineup. Taj the second unit center. And Okogie needs to play. And yes Rose needs to be coached to pass the ball and hit the open man. I'm hoping for L's to get Tibs out. No benefit to making the 8th seed and having him around next year. I'd sure take Michael Porter on our roster instead of the beat down we received in the 1st round last year.

That was a fun game for the most part. Curry is a video game. The Wolves have now played both their Warriors games at Oracle so they have played the toughest games already.

Kat look great and wig was giving great effort defending and hustling on the perimeter. The warriors were just too good on 3's. Steph is just incredible.
Well said that's a good summation of how I feel also. If the Wolves keep playing like this they are gonna win some of these upcoming games
A couple other things.
Dieng continues to play pretty well. He is rewarding Thibs playing him. I was critical of Dieng a few months ago in the offseason worried he wouldn't be to useful but he has found himself again and adjusted to being a bench player. Its a nice development.
People really hate Teague. Yes he passes up some open 3's but he makes more plays than people realize with his dribbling and his defense continues to be at least solid. If we make the playoffs he will be a guy that has a hand in it...like he has every year of his career.

Wiggs was so close to getting that block. If he had, that would likely have been the energy boost that the team needed.
Sometimes i forget how fast he is because he has such long strides.

I don't know if anyone noticed, but kat was 11-15. He could not be stopped, yet he did not lead our team in shots...again.
Saric was also a nice 6-9.
I really like that tandem for the present and future.

That play was amusing. Shortly after the Wolves repeatedly were called for shuffling the feet (7x?)... Curry clearly travels out in the middle of the floor. No call.
The Wolves need a great many things... including a superstar wing player capable of getting preferential treatment. Bigs don't get the same advantages. And 2 points here... 6 points there... they add up.

Re: Wolves@Warriors
I didn't watch this one because it was too late on the east coast, but the end result was predictable. You are talking about the greatest NBA team ever assembled playing on their home court. They have only lost at home to Milwaukee and the Thunder and I'm pretty sure they had a key guy out for those games.
This is why that Portland game was the one to pick off, dammit!

Re: Wolves@Warriors
Saric played 31 minutes in two stints on the floor. So he's playing 15-16 straight minutes on the court. Smart! Lol. He looks so gassed by the time he comes out of the game.

Nice to see Wiggins actually working hard to stop a 3 on 1.
That play sums up why the Warriors are good and also give you a chance. They play really freely and also do some dumb things with the ball. Durant has some really bad turnovers at times. Even all time great players do some bad thing out there on the court.
