Lance and Dunn create a lot of probems defensively for other benches

This is the first time I've seen him. His defense is outstanding, and he's been effective on offense too. I see little chance of Thibs not signing him for the rest of the season. He makes the bench D just that much better.

Hmm...kek, Fleck...PJ Fleck, is that you?

Yeah, Ricky and Wig have been terrific. And don't forget Towns with 20-6 and G with 13 rebounds, and the bench all with positive numbers and playing superb defense. First game I've watched in a while...picked a good one!


You caught me! ROW THE BOAT (side note gophers got a commit yesterday that had Bama, OSU, Michigan and Clemson offers WTF).

They did what I expect beat a team with 3 of their top 6 players out still fun to see sometimes

I need to report a stolen uniform. The guy out there in Belly's uniform has 16 points in 16 minutes...

Every big played really good today. Took care of business.

Yeah, as nice as this win was, let's keep in mind that it was a predicted win in Q's schedule thread...we're still only on pace for 29 wins. Not nearly enough to consider challenging for the 8th spot. I think my expectations ceiling is now "a few good games like this that provides some hope for next year"...whoopee!

Heard it was a sellout crowd. Lance puts players in their seats. (I'm probably in the minority here) but I want to add Larry Sanders like we did with Lance. After we let Pek or Payne go, sign Larry to a cheap contract where we have virtually no risk and if he can play defense at even 80% of his former days, he'll be our best defender hands down. He'll be hungry to prove himself all over again. Lance and Larry could really spark our second team.

I get your point, I do but I think there is a lot more of a risk to larry sanders, he is a head case, gets in trouble off the court, hasn't played in 3 years. If he is great with us in a year where the playoffs are probably not going to happen the wolves have to resign him to a good sized deal and does he just quit again.

Wonder if there might be some competition for Stephenson when his 10 days are up. He obviously belongs in the league, a contender may want to add him for depth.

This is one of those games where the Wolves make themselves look better than they really are. The Bulls were missing a bunch of key guys and on the tail end of a grueling road trip. There is really zero to takeaway from this game. Hopefully our guys decide that defense is important when we play an actual NBA team in a couple of nights.

(Thibs was in fine form. Holy crap was he loud, profane, and obnoxious).
