Reggie just said this has the look of an exhibition game. I'd say it's like the Globetrotters v. Washington Generals game. Guess which team is the Washington Generals? :)

The bench actually hasnt been bad tonight...except Crawford jacking up and missing buckets.

That exchange between him and Harlen about Hakeem where Reggie says "Hakeem has blocked a lot of things" was gold. Lol

You know, our defense has been pretty good through two games. It's sort of weird that our bigger problem against Houston is our offense.

That's wrong with kat? They need to figure this out.

It's like he and wiggs switched personalities. And what's wrong with butler? He hurt? He's been bad as well.

Out vets just haven't shown up so far this series.

Good point, although I didn't think our defense was particularly good in game 1. But tonight it was pretty good. As a result, I was wrong that we'd need 110 points to win. We only needed 103, although I think Houston probably would have gotten to 110 if the game had been close in the 4th and they hadn't put their starters on the bench with several minutes left.

Yeah our defense does look a little better considering how high powered the rockets are.

Im making joe Harris my free agent priority this off season. We could really use a spot up shooter off the bench.

To bad thibs didn't think of getting one when guys like bellinelii and green were available for nothing.

I thought Kenny Smith made a couple nice points. First, he said the Wolves are failing to take advantage of their advantages. Second, about KAT, he said: "he's running the play instead of running what's open." Two good insights. In Thibs' offense, you run the play. In fact, you listen for instructions from your barking head coach. You're not taught or even allowed to think and react. Some of it might be basketball IQ issues with our players. But they can't all be idiots. And KAT certainly seems like a smart guy.
