Zach Lavine is pretty good - GDT

[TAFKASP]

Wiggins better get on his horse if he still wants to be the second best player on the Woofs!

[kekgeek]

It is a great problem to have

Why does Wiggy not rebound? Is he not trying? Is he being told to fall back?

[thedoper]

Are these Rubio's intangible qualities on D tonight?

[TeamRicky [enjin:6648771]]

Ricky is the best plus player for the Wolves tonight.

[TeamRicky [enjin:6648771]]

Why is Dieng sitting?

[Camden [enjin:6601484]]

Man, Zach's confidence is more of a strength than any physical tool he has. You just can't keep him down.

[BizarroJerry [enjin:6592520]]

Wow, 9 bench points, nice job boys!

Fairly competitive game against a very good team that has hit its stride recently. We shouldn't feel too bad about this one.

- I'm really liking how LaVine is playing lately on defense. He's really starting to compete on that side much more than I can ever remember seeing in the past. The missed shots and turnovers were there tonight, but I'm not really worried about those things with him, as I'm pretty sure he'll keep getting better offensively. Playing good defense is far more important for him over the long run.

- With the continued trajectory of KAT and LaVine on offense, Wiggins is starting to take a less prominent role. The good news is he's become more efficient, presumably because he's not constantly the guy having to manufacture a difficult shot. His 3-point shot also seems to be coming around a bit, which is a very good sign, but we'll see if it's sustainable.

- Our bench....Ugh. What a train wreck. It's the same thing we've seen year after year. We manage to cobble together enough talent to put out a decent starting unit (well, not last year with all the injuries, but in most years), but our bench just gets demolished.

- Did Kemba Walker play the entire game? Boy, it sure felt like it.

Good take. The hornets are a fun team to watch. They share the ball and play modern nba basketball. Zeller may not do much stat wise, but he is a quality big to have. Fast, athletic and good team defender.
