Happy Birthday, Thibs - Wolves @ Spurs GDT

[60WinTim]

I will be at AT&T Center tonight! But it's a 2 hour drive for me, so my report might be a bit late!

Gotta love Zach's quote:

Kent Youngblood @BloodStrib
Thibodeau's birthday is today. 59. LaVine on his present for the coach: "I feel if I play some defense he'll have the best birthday ever.''

Not a bad start espcially defending Aldridge.

Tim is the arena as empty as it looks?

[Monster]

Dieng with 2 nice blocks already.

[Monster]

Wiggins with a couple tough boards already in this game.

Bazz has left a guy open twice.

[Monster]

The defense was good...

I can't believe the Wolves and Belly got that call at the end of the first.

Wolves are living at the line keep it going

Not a bad start espcially defending Aldridge.

Yeah, I was surprised at the number of open seats to start the game. We must not be a big draw... it's filled up a bit more now.

[kekgeek]

Not saying they are not fouls but man this is a free throw contest

[Monster]

I've missed a couple minutes because of my internet.

It feels like the Wolves are getting some calls in this game. Tim must have slipped the refs a few bucks. I wonder when the money will run out.

I was worried the Wolves were in trouble after the Spurs lost to the Suns their last game but things have gone well but...the first half isn't even over yet.

Andrew Wiggins would be wise to watch, study, emulate Kawhi Leonard's game. It's simple (in a good way), efficient, effective, and still within himself. You rarely see him try to get too fancy with his handle because he knows he doesn't have it like that. You rarely see him turn the ball over. He creates for teammates. He moves the ball out of double teams with the understanding that he could still get it back. And defensively, he's engaged every second. Leonard is who we want Wiggins to be. Will he ever get there? Probably not, but I'd take a poor man's Kawhi all day. That's still a damn good player, and one you can certainly win with.
