Yes he did. He is the secret weapon tonight.
He's been a great defender since we got him. He's not capable of the spectacular defensive plays that Ant is, but he's been the most consistently locked-in defender after McD. He's an intense pest. Love it. The issue is he's just gotta avoid hurting us on offense, and tonight he's done that.

Starting him over Prince makes sense because he's a bit more intense defensively, and Prince is a more stable offensive option to play with bench players.

Slow mo and NAW are the mvp’s in the firs half. Great all around game by slow mo, he is a winner. NAW defense has been superb. Hope the last 3 by ant gets him going. We will need a big quarter from ant to secure this win. Gobert is soft.He plays hard and can be effective but he is soft especially on offense.

We need to be ready for them to make a run. Need to stay poised.

This game is a defensive challenge for our two-big lineup. They spread the floor and pull Rudy away from the basket, and then KAT has to be able to defend a guy who can drive, which has led to a couple fouls.Rudy's gotta be ready for the help defense and the other defenders need to be ready to swing if KAT's guy drives past him. We may need to switch who they are defending to make Rudy guard their better big ball handler and KAT just guarding the more stationary shooter to balance out the foul situation.

Edwards wearing a white t-shirt reminds me of Culver. How's he doing these days?

Conley is great at drawing fouls from the 3pt line. Such a savy player. He is past his prime but he is still a consistent and reliable starter.

Watching the wolves feeding Gobert on offense is an adventure.

Towns is elite on offense.

This will sound simplistic. Sometimes you just need a bucket.

Kat can get a bucket

Unless he is already at the rim and able to catch the lob, they shouldn't pass it to him down low. He's just not capable of finishing on his own. Even when he's wide open, he's got this terrible propensity to turn what should be an easy dunk into an awkward push shot from like, a foot. It's nuts. Just dunk the ball!
