Boy, even if Luka can play in the 2nd half, he is going to be useless on defense. He wasn't even that great before he got hurt.

Just terrific basketball EVERY time they doubled Ant. Also Ju and Jaden are well rested for the second half...only 16 minutes for the 2 of them,

If he gets any slower he will be moving backwards

Wolves bench 21, Lakers 4. Now if the starters can get it going that'd be nice.

if the light bulb turns on for Jaden offensively in the 2nd half, then it gets grim for the Lakers, because if BOTH Jaden and Rudy are scoring, what can they do?

I actually enjoy the TNT crew, but they are so clueless tonight. They're making the case that Rudy is thriving because they're not playing Hayes. But he only played 30 minutes in the first 4 games, and Rudy was ineffective! We know the real reason. They're aggressively bitzing Ant, and he (and whoever he passes to) is making the correct read!

But as Cool mentioned, the Wolves are finally getting the ball to the middle of the floor versus just swinging the ball to the wings.

How many times do we start a half with Ant and Ju attempting heat check 3's? Happens all the time.
