That's proven to be the case historically with him. I see him having a down year to be honest. Hasn't looked very sharp to me and not playing his best position.

Ya I don’t want to overreact to these games but it’s something I’m curious about

I think the wolves half court defense has been really good. In transition not so much

Shake to Naz combo working well and SloMo to Shake combo has worked well too. These guys play well together.

Kyle still got good passing vision but the glasses are taking time to get used to

DiVicenzo had three nice hustle plays on defense.

Brown hasn't shown much. I wonder if he's played himself out of rotation.

Ant is having a rough shooting night. Only positive is his rebounding.

Good first half. Ant, Naw and Brown has missed so many wide open 3s but the offense is creating open looks.

Naz was fantastic and I thought Rudy was elite on D. The half court defense was fantastic, Knicks not getting open looks. Transition defense still an issue.

Well, Naz played good offensively, even making a flat footed three, but his defense wasn't good. Hartenstein worked him for a bucket and he had to foul on another play when he got beat.

May be the defense ends up being a better version of last year's, meaning the strengths and weaknesses are the same but the strengths are even stronger and the weaknesses are the same-ish.
