He better not have the ball in his hands at clutch time.

In fairness to Martin it was either him or Rubio with the ball in their hands at crunch time. Nobody else seemed up to the task. Wiggins isn't that guy right now. Dude stepped up big time on D on Kobe though.
Great win Lots of good things to take from it.

Yeah, it was both a terrible choice and execution. But in all fairness, we're not in the game without his 23 points. And after a dreadful first quarter, he was even okay on defense.
Just a great comeback win!

Agreed but he was a big reason the wolves got back into the game
The unit that completed the comeback and took the lead was Ricky/Lavine/Wiggins/NB/Towns.

Still can't take terrible shots. He has the skill to get fairly good looks whenever he wants. Also, Lavine played pretty well next to Ricky when they made a push. Very good 4th overall.

He's willing to look for his offense. I wish our more talented guys would bring the same attitude. But at the end of the day he shot 40% and was 0-5 from three.

Rubio, Towns, Bjelica, Martin, Muhammad. They were great tonight. We needed every bit of them.
Wiggins and Dieng... Yikes. Get it together and redeem yourselves Friday.

Our rookies (KAT and Belly) didn't play like rookies...surprising poise and toughness.

By the way, Karl-Anthony desperately wanted the ball in the clutch. Was yelling for it on the block, but Martin never gave it to him. I like that Towns wanted that opportunity, wasn't scared of the moment. He's got it. 14 & 12 in his debut and he scored in a plethora of ways. 1-0.
