Malik bricked this game away late. Just some really bad attempts. Took three really tough, contested shots early in the shot clock that the Wolves didn't have to take. Brutal ending to an otherwise fun game. On to the next one.

Dlo/Ant/ Beasley were 3-15 for the final 10 minutes of this game. Stars need to hit shots and for the most part this year they have not

Also, EIGHT turnovers from Anthony Edwards. Come on, kid. Protect the damn ball.

It was so fun to see a game without the whining coming from the Wolves. They fought hard and played hard. Ant needs to clean up his handles a bit. Bolmaro is going to be a player, but he needs to learn to get his shot off to balance the offense.

Nets shoot 41 free throws compared to the Wolves 24. That's just really hard to overcome every night. I thought the officiating was decent, but that differential is absurd.

I think anytime now at about a quarter through the season our max player dlo could learn how to shoot. I mean seriously, how many good shooting games has he had this year? I recall complaining about rubio shooting this way but even he wasn't making max money. Ant needs to keep driving and quit settling. Disappointing as it didn't seem the nets really brought it at all tonight

Wolves foul the most in the NBA. We are a bunch of jump shooters for the most part. I also thought the officiating was solid

Good fight. Would of loved to steal a game. Hopefully Kat and Mcdaniels are back soon so I don't need to watch Okogie play bball anymore

This was a fun game.


The game was lost really on 2 aspects:

1. Ant had butter fingers the entire game. Therefore he couldn't create for himself or other reliably.

2. There was a good 8 minute stretch where the lineup was Russell/Beasley/Knight/Okogie/Bolmaro. Somehow that didn't do them in, but the defense was on point all game long. They could have used Nowell even if just for that early 4th quarter stretch and maybe it produces more offense. The floodgates weren't gonna open with a 6 minute stint of Nowell. The offense needed the jolt more than the defense and we didn't exhaust those options (though we were in this game throughout.).

This is the kind of game where a healthy Joe Harris kills us the way Mills did. Team deserves an A- for defense and a "well you tried" on offense.

Woulda been awesome to see a W but there's plenty good to take out of this game.

Anthony Edwards: "I just played terrible. That's the whole recipe to the entire game. I played terrible."

Well, it seems like he's taking this one on his shoulders. I didn't think he was particularly engaged for much of the game, but I don't think he was the sole reason for losing. Hope he brings it against Atlanta!
