I am a little nervous about the gobert injury. If it is a broken rib how long would he be out?

If we see the Clippers in the 2nd round, we win it in 6.

Season-defining game? The Wolves need to use it to springboard the rest of the season. The role players got their groove on. Rudy needs to be OK.

Rudy told Chris Hine nothing was broken. Apparently he was still in pain in the locker room

Rudy deserves the next 3 days off. Hopefully, he is good to go after that, because winning becomes much more difficult when he misses a game!

Didn't see the game, how was Gobert's whistle?

McGoose Egg.

I didn’t see any bad whistles for him. His offensive hands were terrible early on which was one of the contributing factors to the early deficit. But he was pretty good later in the game with some nice put backs, and even one very rare dribble drive layup that was actually successful!

Yeah, he was another contributing factor to the early deficit. But despite the goose egg, I think we sometimes take his perimeter defense for granted. Between Jaden, NAW and ANT, we really some great defense at the point of attack. And that was huge to start the 3rd quarter with those 3 on the floor.

I hear ya. And I hate to always be the McDowner. But man...with Towns out, he's gotta pick up some of the scoring slack. I just don't understand what's going on with him (offensively)? His FG% is still good. And I'm at least encouraged to see his rebounds trending up as of late. We really need him to be able to count on him for 12-15 points/night. He averaged 12 last season - that shouldn't be a huge leap for him in his 4th season.
