Tim is on the road again, so I'll kick this one off. Our boys are in the Big Easy, but I don't think this game will be easy. When Ant went down, I predicted it might cost us 5 wins...I wonder if this might be one of them. The Wolves are coming off an impressive win, but the Pels have won 4 in a row after an 0-4 start, including an impressive win in Memphis. The Wolves will still be missing 3 key rotation players (including Donte), and while Missi will be out for the Pels, I would argue that Matkovic might be the better option at center. NO is scoring a lot of points (only .3 PPG behind leading Portland) despite only making 31.7% of their 3-pointers. We're going to have to be really tough in the paint defensively.
Most of the wise guys are taking the Wolves -3 1/2...I hope they're right.

Lamelo is so damn good, what a unique player
Re: A night in The Big Easy: Wolves/Pels GDT
That Eastern European guy is killing us! And he's not even their regular starter!
Re: A night in The Big Easy: Wolves/Pels GDT
Alright, withstood the comeback and hot shooting. Looks like if we win it will be a close one. The Pels are a good team and (mostly) healthy.
Re: A night in The Big Easy: Wolves/Pels GDT
Guys really struggling to create offense without LaMelo out there.
Re: A night in The Big Easy: Wolves/Pels GDT
Bleh no rhythym for the offense. Hopefully threes start falling. And the over the top passes by NO needs to stop already.

Kuminga making play after play on both ends here to keep this thing close.
