That DLo guy sure does suck. We couldn't possible find a use for a 50 point primary ball handling 3pt shooter. That was a big win because you can't lose to DLo and the G Leaguers.

They'll never get the appropriate amount of credit that they deserve, especially when a teammate goes off for 40, but the Wolves don't cap off that comeback tonight without the defense and gritty, hustle plays from Josh Okogie, Robert Covington, and Treveon Graham. Those three don't have eye-popping box scores, but their activity and energy was absolutely huge.

Ryan's post-game interview tonight was a good one. Highly encourage you guys -- and gals? -- to watch it if you get the chance.

He spoke on moving Okogie back to the bench, Wiggins embracing shot values, Teague's likeliness for Sunday, and more. He sounded like a confident head coach tonight, which was a complete 180 from the other night against Memphis.

He's a work in progress, but clearly a bright guy with a solid NBA education.

Yuck.
But a win.

- Wiggins was great. Good to see this stretch. What a tease that guy is... the best!

- The Wolves will be changing a lot of faces. There's simply not enough talent on the team.

- But that doesn't mean watching Okogie can't be fun. Sort of trainwrecky... but fun. Covington doing his bit when needed was good, too.

- Damn. That Warriors team sucks balls. This would have been a BAD loss.

- Obviously, Russell was great. Awesome. But even with that career performance, he opens himself up for criticisms. Those are tough, tough shots he was hitting. He's incredible at hitting those tough shots... but it's not going to happen every night or for full games very often. So that's where the lack of efficiency comes into play.

Damn, had to travel tonight and missed this one. Looks like it wasn't one to miss. Before I read through this thread and watch the replay, can a non-wiggins hater give me a quick synopsis?

Wigs was terrific all night. It was the wigs we all wanted. Attacking the rim repeatedly and made great looking layups/finger rolls. He is such a smooth athlete. Took only 4 mid range shots and made 3. All 4 where good looks. Made the game tying basket to tie the game and get us to ot. Hit the nail in the coffin for the warriors with a 3 with 23 seconds to go in ot to get us up by 4.

Only negative was going 4/8 fro ft line.

Had 5 rebounds and 3 blocks. I thought he had a 2 steals but as credited with 0. Had 7 assists and was excellent all night finding the open man off his drives. Would have 12-14 assists if his teammates hit those open looks. Would not need to scor 40 if teammates were making shots and we wont need ot to beat them but als, it was a great night for him.

Gotta be a weird fact about allowing two 50 point scorers within 10 games and still winning both games right?
