Anthony Edwards when asked if he was sad he no longer has the chance to dunk on Rudy Gobert.

“I’m happy he’s on my team — for his sake.”

LFG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Well cant say that ish wasnt fun as F !!!!!!

to read too much into gm 1 , is for fools, especially since its the FIRST reg season game they ever played together, atll in all went ok.

If the Wolves dont extend DLo they are IDIOTS, period, he fits PERFECTLY with this current roster, that starting 5 is gonna be special in a couple months.
Jaden is the goods, if he progresses like he 'should'...... LOOK THE F OUT !!!

The most attempt Rudy ever took in Utah was 14, I believe he took 15 last night. Had a few flubs but who didnt ?

Any missed alotta shots but a long as you got others cookin it aint no big deal, HIS DIMES HAD ME UP AND HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOWLIN !!!

KATs energy is great, I love him, he just gotta refine it all a bit, those lobs to Rudy were nice thuogh, good Lord !


I couldnt stop thinking about what essential1 essential1 said AGAIN.......Finch has quite the task in figuring out who and when and how long.

NOWELL,BRYN, SLO MO everybody gonna keep gettin better and more comfortable as time goes by, something to look forward to big tyme !


How great to see T PRINCE gettin loose early, have ALWAYS liked him and his game


GRADY AND JPETE were perfect together, still miss Benz but GRADY was the 2nd biggest pick up of the off seasason.


Got games coming up that they "SHOULD" win, but we all know they aint gonna take em all ( SA,UT,OKC ), kinda wish they had a heavy hitte in the next week to blow their doors off, there is alot to said for a new team being humbled early, makes ya hungrier IMHO

OKC is gonnabe REAL NICE when slender man gets back, SGA DORT and the kid with the mop on his head can go ! fun team


EVERYBODY STAY thurskii 2.jpg til Friday !!!


IF YOU ARE NOT WITH US, YOU ARE AGAINST US !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think it’ll be fine. What everyone on the team has to accept is there will be days they score 25. And then days they score 10. Just as a consequence of 5 guys who can get points.

DLo and Gobert will be good. There was one play in particular where DLo gets the screen from Rudy and the amount of space he had to continue to take the ball to the rim for a short floater was insane. DLo has never had that.
Rudy’s defense was good. He was as advertised.

KAT and Ant shared the ball well. As seen by 7 assists each.

A lot of missed opened looks from 3 across the team. Probably win by 20 if they were able to knock down open shots.

Wolves should end up with one of the 2 or 3 highest team starters PPG in the league. That’s what needs to be focused on. Are they hitting over 80PPG as a starting unit, with solid efficiency is all that needs to be looked at after each game.

The defense as a collective unit was a bit rough, learning who needs to rotate when will take a bit, especially as they get accustomed to what Rudy can and can’t clean up.
 
EZMONEY SERVANT EZMONEY SERVANT were you there live? I got the season opener @ OKC in my tickets package for Sunday but idk if i care to go because i really bought these ****** seats to resale. Might flip them though and cop some lower levels or club with the buffet then Ill be in the building
 
datznasty datznasty , no Sir was not there, those tix you got aint gonna be so easy alot sooner than later I bet , hell maybe even next year. Whenever Chet comes back them fellas gonna be hella tough ! Buffet and tix sound like the move.

PERFECT breakdown right there essential ! I get the feeling EVERYONE will be ok with those 10 pt nights here and there as long as they see any and everyone else picking up the slack, kinda nice to have all these options ifya ask me !

KAt and ANT combined for 6/27, whole team shot 26% from 3 and still won. THAT wont happen alot , and prob wouldnt have if Chet was there but ya gotta take em any way they come !

Since defense comes along slower with a new unit, what we saw was expect4d, still not pretty AT ALL though, lol.


 
The last part of the team is to have one guy on the bench who could start on a handful of teams.
Can they make it work trade wise? I don’t know, probably not.

JMac, Nowell, Bryn, SloMo, TP and Naz are all decent players, someone like Nowell may elevate to fit the bill, but they need just one guy who elevates. Particularly at the 3.
and doesn’t mean it has to be a guy with great offense either.

That's what I loved about Beasley on the squad. He was inconsistent though.

There's a lot riding on the development of so many young guys, so it's too early, but I'm sure trades will be looked into if it doesn't work out like they probably hope/expect.
 
IMA HOPING the answer is Nowell, got faith in that man !


651akathepaul yer man Beas aint playin around !.........



everybody gonna need 1 of these

gonne be a REAL Fn TOUGH ONE 2NITE GENTS !

Miss Sir Vando SO much




RUDAY RUDAY RUDAY, MY MAN




LETS GET IT
 
OK so just got back from pick up INSIDE which i do not like, i dig that out do

had to take 2 free throws before runs started to make sure it was possible to hit em BOTH........... they both went in..... THANKS RUDY ! lol !!


WAY more positives than negatives last night

KATs shot selection is not so great, where they are and when he takes em, but you do miss 100% of the shots you dont take
Perimeter D still comin along, like we all acknowledged would be an issue and take a while to get just right, woulda helped a little if utah wasnt shooting like this.......




ANOTHER GREAT NIGHT FOR DLo !!! man is cold just plain cold, God bless Him
ANT looked ALOT better
Nowell showing the F out was where its at, he becomes consistent like that and things could get extra interesting

For the little bit of time KAT and RUDY were both on the bench they got it cookin I loved how things were flowin at that point

Rudy on the boards is just a thing of beauty it really really is, Finch should make him make 50 FTs before he leaves practice later today though

J Mclaughlin with some solid minutes too


Tomorrow wont be much easier as you already know cause OKC gonna be hyped as F for their home opener

Game 2 of the season makes last night 100% acceptable, around 25-30 IT WOULD NOT BE, but by my count last night was gm 2 so ON WE GO !!!


I LOVE THE STATEMENT JERSEYS, ordered an A1 last night


I REALLY REALLY REALLY LIKE THIS TEAM, REALLY ! Dont tell anyone though




dlo ssshhhhh.jpg


NEXT !
 
Perimeter defense is super questionable, any disruption of their threes in the second half would’ve stopped that “everyone is making them” feeling. Rudy seems like he has to be all over the place too.
 
Same mistakes Utah made with Rudy. Assuming because he’s an all-time great defender, that they can let the little things slide. And then find out that it doesn’t work that way.

Don’t even have to be good or disciplined. Just be consistent effort, and it changes everything.
 
That shot by DLo off the glass was so confident and he just kissed it I was speechless lol
