Need Kyle Anderson to start making some of those open shots. Teams are just leaving him wide open. Come playoff time that's gonna be a real issue if he can't start knocking them down at a decent rate.

How would the board feel if we traded for Derrick Rose only making 3 mil

Yeah, it's going to be a problem - already is to a degree. The only workaround is if he uses all that space to get in the paint and just shoot that little jump hook over the top of the defense. Teams might be OK with that shot though.

I don’t think it will be problem because if it’s they will just shorten the bench anyways.

Troy brown saying he’s never leaving the rotation

Right, but my idea of shortening the bench was taking Milton out of a playoff rotation. I guess you could go to 8 with NAW, Reid, and Brown off the bench but we'd miss SloMo's play making and defense.

The 3rd quarter behemoths make yet another appearance

I missed the first half...looks like Ant is still stiff?

I have been struggling having a Wolves team that comes out in the 3rd quarter and puts the hammer down. But I am willing to keep working on it!

Brown and NAW making their fair share of 3s is just so massive for this team. Brown's shot seems more pure to me than NAW's, but it seems like NAW hits enough to keep the defense honest. Hitting 3s with reasonable accuracy and decent volume is probably the biggest bugaboo with our offense.
