Is it time to move Teague to the 2nd unit? Rose isn't going to have these games nightly, but damn if he isn't a fun guy to watch! Him and Okogie flying around all over the place, so much fun!

Get Jimmy's diva ass out of here ASAP and let don't let these good vibes be soured by having that btchass around the team one second longer.


What a difference between Butler and Rose, one a selfish bastard who only gives a shit about himself and the other who obviously cares so much about the game, and playing on a vet minimum deal! It's been a long time since I was so moved emotionally by a Wolves game, a very, very long time!

I think Thibs will keep Rose a 6th man. I think it would be risky to play him tons of minutes. And don't forget the other two guys to score this many points are Mo Williams and Corey Brewer. Rose could easily go back to being an inefficient shot hogger, but we'll worry about that tomorrow. What a game!

Teague has been mostly bad this season too.

I've been blasted previously over my discontent of/with both Butler and Teague, but they just dont work here.

Rose likely will never have a game like this again, but our ball movement and effort on both ends was 1000x better tonight than in any game with butler/teague in the mix

Unreal game. So glad I was able to tune in. A legendary performance by Rose.

Large difference between a player who was the youngest ever MVP and some journeymen.

I don't expect him to do this every night, but he has always had the talent to.

He doesn't have to replicate tonight, hell, if played half as well he's still better than what teague is giving them.

I don't have high hopes for this team winning a lot this season, but I could enjoy watching the joy that Rose and Okogie play with, KAT and Wigs too if they continue to play that way!

Other quick notes:

- KAT with another good game...good to see.

- Wiggins making three's. I likey.

- Okogie defense. He made Mitchell work hard for his points.

- Okogie playing within himself on offense and going 4-5 from the field.

- Our overall team defense....still not good.

- Keep in mind Utah was at the tail end of a 4-game road trip. Regardless, we beat a damn good team.

- Notice how Utah's offense generates lots of 3's without having to rely on guys isolating and kicking out. It's called ball and player movement.

- Rubio was invisible out there tonight. Kinda sad about that.
