He is also top 10 in Drives per game before people blame shooting threes.

After watching it back, the sound could be a shoe or a whistle from the crowd. Odd sequence when the Wolves players seemed to half-quit on the play. What do you guys think? Not trying to stir shit up, just seemed like it was worth looking at.

I love Kyle. I wish he was still on our team.

Look, I know it sucks to watch our guys lose, no matter how it happens. Let’s all take a deep breath. It’s a long season.

Lamelo had a decent game. There were moments when he looked a little stuck, but also many moments when he performed well and his defensive effort was consistent. He is so fun to watch.

Ant had 47 on almost 56% shooting. He’s our guy and any game we get to watch him play at this level is a joy. He’s also not always going to go 33% from 3.

Beringer looks better every game. His instincts are excellent, and he’s so hungry every play. He’s already a real rotation guy for us.

Rudy had probably the worst offensive game I’ve seen him play, but his defence was there like always and he grabbed 20 boards. Would love for him to shoot better from the line and grab passes easier, but that’s Rudy.

Kuminga had some rough moments, but he’s bought in defensively and picks his spots pretty well. I loved the moment when he caught harden sleeping for an easy backdoor cut.

There’s a lot of great ball to look forward to. We had this one a few times, but I’m not worried.

Wolves Back.

Edit: also yeah I wish we hit more free throws. Lol. Hope that doesn’t continue.

I found this video of him practicing shooting. I think he gonna play today.

Last night Kevin Calabro referred to Lamelo as the Illustrated Man. If you’ve ever seen the movie you know it’s a little bonkers. Anyway, inspired me to put this together.

3 championships are better then none.

Lamelo got the deflection and steal and instead of taking the shot himself as most players would do, he passed up to Jaden for an easy layup 🥹 Love his energy on defense, his court vision and his selflessness!

Sorry about the sound effects, I get very hyped when watching basketball 🤣

Are we good until donte returns or do you think we need something else off the bench ?

The Warriors pass on LaMelo could’ve had their pg of the future, and could’ve extended the warriors chances of playoff success with Steph.

They also gave up on Kuminga because he wasn’t “bought in” to their principles. Maybe he needed a change in his career to come to a realization, but he has been a revelation to this team.

Thank you to the Warriors for allowing us to pair Melo and Kuminga with Ant and Jaden. 😆

Not a statistician or anything, but I took our 3-0 record and extrapolated it to the entire season. And what I found is that if we keep this trajectory, we are on pace to be the first team to ever go 82-0. Thoughts?

In last night's game, with 6:23 remaining, Finch subbed out 4/5 of the starting lineup: LaMelo, Jaden, Kuminga, and Rudy, while leaving Ant in. Ant played for less than another minute before he too was subbed out to end his night. Innocuous as another 34 seconds might seem, this is for a guy who had tweaked his knee earlier in the game and might miss the game tonight. He had been playing since the start of the fourth quarter after subbing in with the team leading by 28.

As fun as it is seeing us blow teams out, sometimes I wish Finch would see some of these games with a huge lead late as a chance to just let Ant skip the fourth quarter, like Shai often did last year. When the game is already in hand, don't put any unnecessary miles on those knees.

I worry that the reason this won't happen is because Ant cares about his stats. He doesn't want to finish a game with 19 points in 23 minutes. He'd rather come back to add another 10 points in the fourth quarter to keep up his per-game averages and miss the next game, because a missed game doesn't affect his stats in the same way, even though it could end up hurting the team if you lose to a quality opponent.

Obviously with the way we're playing, the most important thing for this team is keeping its starts healthy through the regular season, so if he needs a night off, he needs a night off. But there is a downside to missing whole games, and there is much less of a downside to rest when you're already up big. Particularly after seeing Jalen Williams' injury in the fourth quarter last night, I don't want Ant to risk an injury playing extra minutes on tired legs at the end of a blowout just to pad his stats.
