As J-Pete said though, those guys are like piranhas out there. They play hard on both sides of the ball, from Lowry on down the line.

New look wolves move to 1-1. Offense looked pretty good. But man did they attack DLO and Kat late in PnR and wolves couldn't stop it.

Lost to a really good team on the road (albeit missing Ibaka and Gasol). Hopefully the Wolves continue to improve with more chemistry.

The better team won. Wolves ran out of gas after a barn burner in the first half. Hard to be too upset about this one besides some smaller issues. Also some positives. Wednesday should be fun.

Well I guess we got a clear picture of what our D will be like against competent teams.

Hollis-Jefferson is a model for guys like Okogie and Culver. Might be one of the worst perimeter shooters in the league - even worse than Okogie and Culver - yet literally does everything else well, especially defense. Been a key role player on a playoff team last year with Brooklyn and now with Toronto.

DLO, a team worst -22 and 6 turnovers. Wolves gave up its 2021 draft picks for this clown. Looks like he was outplayed by a G-Leaguer, McLaughlin tonight. I know its one game for Wolves, but last Warriors game he gave up -48.

Yeah, hopefully Rosas went into this eyes wide open. Not sure if KAT and DLO can be coached up on D after 5 years in the league. All we can hope is that he somehow creates an offensive juggernaut that can be a perennial playoff team. But hard to see these two anchoring a team that can compete with the real big boys for a Conference or NBA title.

I hope Gerson Rohas looks at the coaches with the same cold, analytical eye he looked at the players with.

All these turnovers, team defense. Wonder what Nurse could do woth our lineup

Wolves would probably win more if that were the case. :)
