    Wolves have been stepping under Grant's landing all game. Nice to see it called.

    That's a big part of it. Nurkic isn't even setting screens anymore for him because it's a foul every time.

    Fortunately for Portland, Minny is doing a poor job of getting the ball to Gobert on PnRs. He has been open numerous times where they don't throw him the wide open lob.

    His hands scare the hell out of them. My Timberwolf-loving brother hates him.

    So what I'm hearing is, you're the reason they're all Minnesota feeds...

    It will be telling if Cronin makes any moves at the deadline. If he doesn’t make any moves, it’s probably bc he doesn’t think the team is good enough this season. If that’s the case, they should bump up Shaedon’s minutes dramatically and just let him develop for the remainder of the season.

    I feel like there is some inside joke to throw the ball at everyone's knees

    When Dame is out, Simons really tends to go MeJ more than I would prefer.
