Love goes back in & we go on a 9-0 run.

Why the **** cant anyone on the second unit feed PEK down low? Or run a PEK & roll? Our offense is ****ing useless without Love on the floor.

17-2 run since Love came back in, pending DC FT attempt.

PEK playing very well with Love on the floor.

Its too bad that none of the four scrubs on the 2nd unit playing with him, especially the poor excuse of a PG, seem to realize that.

I've come to really hate JJB. He just pounds the rock aimlessly for 75% of possessions and takes bad pull-ups. Combine that with his terrible defense and he's not even a reasonable backup.

I agree and I've thought this for a while now. This is why I was pissed we didnt try to trade him for Andre Miller or some other useful backup PG.

Dumb 5th foul by Rubio. Love bitching him out about the play on the bench.

I hope they put in Shved instead of Barea here. Or leave Ricky in.

Played hard, TOR just hit insane shots. Also that 18-0 run hurt.

On the plus side, that Shabazz finish!

Shabazz isn't very good and i was fine with him not playing but gotta give props to Adelman. Bazz was brought in because he's an iso player and Steve Novak can't guard anyone. Just ran isos to Bazz until they had to take on-fire Novak off the floor.

I would like to see more Shved...he was playing better before he broke his nose, he gets in trouble with his jump passes but he can run the pnr and I like his def better than JJ

Shved was actually pretty good last game. Didn't try to do too much and just facilitated.

As bad of a player as I think Shved is, right now he might be the lesser of two evils when compared to Barea.

I think Shved has potential, but I dont think he cares enough to work on his game. He's probably not Darko-bad as far as not caring, but I've heard things that tell me he has done literally nothing to try to improve himself in the offseasons.

He came back to the Wolves a worse player than he was last season. Good players (Love, Bird, Magic, Jordan, etc....) work hard to improve parts of their game that need work in off-seasons. Whatever Shved was doing had the opposite result.

Shved sucks but i think it's pretty unfair to say he doesn't care. I seems pretty depressed about his sucking.

I really wanna finish above .500. Maybe that's stupid, but I don't care.

yeah, unless it means we get the 14th pick, which we would then lose.
