He's the one I picked of the three, but I watched nothing of any of them. Between Ant, Ball, and Wiseman. Not a great take, but I was forced into that take!

Kyle Anderson is player of the game. Fucked around in the first half. Eventually put the throttle down in the 2nd.

Re: ***Official Pistons @ Timberwolves GDT 27 Mar Official***
still a bummer i think that we get in games like this where we maybe could blow out a team early and get the deep bench some actual minutes - but it doesn't seem to ever go that way. 12 win team with multiple rotational guys out - and our deep bench gets the final 2 minutes. this matters if we ever need one of those guys. counting KAT coming back for the playoffs - we'll have a nine man rotation - the tenth guy would be JMac, and as well as he's played, it's weird to think he'd be sitting for the playoffs. but it's nice to have someone who has played as well as he has at that tenth spot. but then after that we have literally zero game experience. what if, one of our bigs goes down for 2-3 games in the playoffs. Luka has the most experience, but that's still less than 100 minutes this season! We'd probably be using TJ because he's a vet - but he hasn't really shown much yet that suggests he's got his mojo back - and he's hardly played in two years. Just wish we would have taken care of business better this year in clearly winnable games so that the end of our bench was so terrifically green.

If you're a legit 10 guys deep that's still pretty good for the playoffs. If we have to play Luka and Minott or whoever, in the playoofs, we're probably losing anyway. Not matter how much PT they get.

it was an off night--but he was on the floor when they went on the 16-2 run to close out the third quarter. wolves never looked back after that. he still had an impact and he got to rest the whole 4th quarter. he should be ready to roll on friday.

OKC is a talented team, but I think they're the paper tiger of the NBA right now. The team with a good record that doesn't stand much chance of making a deep run in the playoffs.
But I could be wrong.

Phoenix up on Denver. Plenty left, but if that holds, Friday is for the top seed!

Re: ***Official Pistons @ Timberwolves GDT 27 Mar Official***
FWIW, and I'm not deep diving into the stat, I'm sure someone here can, but Anthony Edwards has scored single digits six times this year, and the Wolves are five and one when he has.
Last night they said one game is when he played against Memphis and played 3 minutes, but someone else will have to do the deep dive to see what the other five games were.
Much like the wolves are still winning even though KATs out (unlike many expressed at the beginning of the KAT injury thread), I think this team is good enough to win against anybody, even on an off night by Ant.
Nice bench the Wolves have.

Rudy Gobert dominant again as Timberwolves pull away from Detroit for 50th win
“In many ways, the MVP of the game was Rudy,” Wolves coach Chris Finch said. “When Rudy was on the floor, they struggled to score, Rudy battling on the offensive glass, he kept a lot of things alive when we had nothing else going offensively, batted it out and we were able to hit a couple threes on the back end of that. And they were timely plays, too.”
“I think every time he plays well, we win. He does a lot of things that don’t show up in the stat sheet and things that do show up in the stat sheet,” Kyle Anderson said. “So I think he’s been our MVP this year.”
