Heh, again, it's the little things. They add up with him. He has like two or three of those every game, which isn't good for a guy playing sub 20 minutes off the bench.

Man, AD made everything in that half. Other than that one play where he went backdoor for the easy dunk, I actually thought Dieng played decent defense. He made everything in the mid-range though, even from awkward little distances where he wasn't even square and balanced. Impressive.

Hell of a play. You always worry about the finish with him, but he actually looked natural putting it in.

Exactly. He really has poor timing. The nba speed is too much for him to handle.

We are missing a solid bench big, these bench bigs of Belly, Aldrich and J. Hill just doesn't cut it. How many wins do you think could have been added to the season with just one solid rotational big?

I'm glad we stuck with Rubio he seems to be growing quite a bit and still only 26 years old!

Sample size is too small, he's been shooting adequately of late but that's more likely to fade then continue or improve further. I'd love to see it, but I'm not holding my breath anymore.

Agreed, although it's not unheard of for guys to develop consistent 3's later in their careers. But I don't buy the mid-range stuff. I think he's just been hot from there and he'll regress to his average eventually.

Man I remember when people told me we are going to be better without Lavine because defense gets better. Well the defense is getting worse and worse

98 points in 3 quarters to the 27th best offense. GO WOLVES!
