Great game so far

Rudy bouncing back from some poor rebounding games, and Ant making some nice reads again.

Yeah, two teams playing really well.

Easily Randle’s best half on the Wolves

Agree, and one of our best halves also as a team. We went cold on threes for awhile, but still hit 38%. We always seem to play well when Ju is on triple double watch.

Only 10 assists for Cavs, but their screen and shoot game seems unstoppable when they're making their shots.

Yeah, they really don't have any holes as a team. Iron sharpens iron though and it feels like the Wolves are starting to be able to play at the big boys table once again. Offense has made a dramatic turnaround starting 4 (and a half) games ago.

Maybe Jaden and NAW need to go over the screens to not give Mitchell so many open looks. Not easy, I know.

The Cavs get 2 3's on things I don't like about these Wolves. First, Ant allows them to go 5 on 4 while he whines to the refs about a foul that even homer Jim Pete says wasn't a foul. And then Rudy tries to drive to the basket from the free throw line...never works and resulted in another 5 on 4. The Cavs are great 5 on 5, but 5 on 4 is death.

It seems the back-to-back is catching up to us. But great effort in a “scheduled loss”.
