Good point, Doper. Ant is definitely our most talented player. Eventually, he'll be our best player 70% of the time.

Now, if only the offense could strive to be just competent...

This was the KAT we need to see all the time -- efficient scoring and solid defense.

It's amazing how we all thought it would be the exact opposing this season, nearly 100% the offense would be fine but hoping and praying the defense would be juuuuuust good enough to squeak into a play in spot.

The Wolves currently have the 13th best defense in the NBA and 26th ranked offense.

Want to say I feel like the fan in major league 2 no matter what wolves do I will not enjoy and say they suck.

Chris Finch when asked what his message to the team was at halftime:

"If you want to win the game, you've got to rebound. It's literally going to come down to that."

Said they only watched clips of blown rebounds at halftime.

Tristan Thompson sounds off on the loss to the Timberwolves.

That video made me like Thompson. Id give up Okogie for him.

I grabbed some screenshots from last night's game:

This one is when Towns picked up yet another offensive foul with his offhand (77th already this season) on a drive to the hoop.


Towns passing the basketball for most of the game:


The Timberwolves trying to rebound the basketball early in the game:


This one is a really cool POV shot of Malik Beasley in the first half:


Edwards whenever he gets the ball:


Towns when Edwards got the ball early in the 4th quarter:


Towns when Edwards got the ball the next time down the court:

Also Edwards in the 4th quarter:


Towns by the end of the night:

Big 3? I hate when guys like Pete keep that narrative going.

DLO I think shot another 6-15. He's out. What is he shooting on the year???

Ant is 20 and inconsistent, not there yet.... Potential.

KAT can bring it, but has been showing cracks in his mentality this season. At least he is a great shooter when most of the team isn't.

Good win I guess, but that "Big 3" narrative is a little hyperbolic.
