Real fun game to watch. Even players like NAW that had a bit of an off night, put in valuable minutes. The entire team was focused.

Glad Finch decided to start Naz too. Without Towns they need his offense to help steady the offensive load with Ant. He stetrches the floor quite a bit.

Yep but even at his worst, he brings that intense defense. It yeah, when he’s cooking on both ends, this team can get to a higher level.weimy froob wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 9:22 pm nickeil struggling right now on the offensive end. wolves need to get him going again.

I want him to attack for himself more. Not a ton of advanced dribbling. Any time he puts the ball on the floor to just use his length at the rim. I think he should do more of that. Attacking a closeout, for instance. That's a good opportunity for him to get a good close look.Beef Supreme wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 9:24 pmJaden: Play defense and shoot open shots.weimy froob wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 9:19 pmthe threes were big. the last turnover wasn't playing smart basketball--but they were up by 10.somuchyummy wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 9:13 pm jaden not cementing that Mr Clutch rep at the end - two TOVs and two missed FTs. but oh well. he did hit the two threes earlier.

Grady and Jim Pete laughing at that terrible missed call leading into a commercial break was classic.
I was a Benz fan because I loved the stupidity he brought to the table. It paired well with the product on the floor for quite some time.
Grady and Jim Pete are the best in the biz. It’s a shame they don’t sit courtside. It really bothers me.

Re: ***Official Cavaliers @ Timberwolves GDT 22 Mar Official***
Yeah. Not trying to create or do something akin to what Ant does. Mainly just a straight line drive to add another wrinkle to his us game and get him more comfortable. Hes so tall he can get some good looks at the cup if he gets there. He's got his short little pull up he does too that is pretty solid.Beef Supreme wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 9:30 pmMaybe one or two dribbles.

yeah. he's usually spot on in his analysis of the game. he said something to the effect that their defense got better as the game went on and they wore out the cavs.Jimi_Thing wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 9:55 pmRudy is always an interesting interview.

i'm still a little irritated by him getting that T though. he knows better--and i'd like to see how that last possession would've played out with the wolves having the one point lead.

After the 1st utah game i looked at the schedule and thought 10-5 would be a good/attainable goal to get. 2-1 after that. If they do go 10-5 that would put them at 56-26. Not sure if that’s good enough for the the 2 spot which would be great.

I think. Usage change can effect him quite a bit. When he plays the three he struggles. When he's a four he's more comfortable. Now that he is getting a turn at smallball 5 he is showing out more. I hope this time without Kat gives Finchy a good idea of some lneups that could surprise and turn the tide some in playoff time. These weeks of having to throw the book at everyone and come up with new options and game plans can maybe be a big boon to our playoffs.aztimberwolves wrote: ↑Sat Mar 23, 2024 12:22 am Kyle anderson again with another nice game.
