Let's just go 17-4 to finish the season. Make the playoffs, cover the over, have insane momentum for GS.

...he says two days before an away game in San Antonio.

yeah, they had a tough game last night vs NO. They won 101-98. Leonard & Aldridge played 40 mins each, and D Green & Gasol played 36 mins each. Hopefully they come out sluggish against us tonight and we play the way we did vs Utah.

Should have won that one.

I'm with Jim Pete, I don't understand repeatedly iso'ing Wiggins against Kawhi down the stretch, particularly when he was obviously gassed.

yeah. Missed FTs and a handful of terrible TOs killed us.

Agree. Kawhi was making everything hard for Wiggins and even if Wiggins beat him, the help defense was great. There's no team in the NBA that does a better job of shutting down Wiggins than the Spurs. We should have been feeding Towns more.

Wolves up to 11th in SRS!

Best DRTG in the league since the all-star break. That includes giving up 142 in regulation to Houston.

The Clippers game last night was the most satisfying win all season. I never got that nervous feeling that we were about to give the game away. When they hit that lucky shot at the end of the half, we took it to them in the 3rd and buried them in the 4th. I love beating those whining, cheapshot *******s. Blowing them out is even more fun.

Canis had an article yesterday suggesting we needed to 15-5 or better the rest of the way to have a great shot at the playoffs. They had a list of 10 "easy" games and 10 "hard" games, so assuming we go 10-0 in the easy games, we need to steal 5 hard games as well. Last night vs the Clippers was one of the hard games.

KAT and all 3 of our PGs played very well last night. Dunn's defense is fun to watch. I think he played his best game of the season last night. Rubio was outstanding. When was the last time he outplayed Paul?

We need to keep playing like this.

Last 9 games:

That steal looked like it was against the Washington Generals.

I've looked at the schedule. It's hard to find 10 easy games.

Our 8 losses when leading by 15+ will most likely haunt us.

That Rockets loss at home is the one that kills me the most.

yeah, that's why I used quotes. Here's the article: http://www.canishoopus.com/2017/3/8/...s-paul-griffin

I dont know if I fully agree with how he laid out those games, but the premise that we need 14 more wins seems like a good number to shoot for.

All those blown leads are really killing us now.

We have the 7th best point differential in the west right now at 0.0 difference per game.

That and a game we lost vs Utah at the end was similarly bad, but not quite as bad..... but there were lots more than just those two.

We should have never lost to the Knicks and we went 0-2 vs them. There are tons of other games we should not have lost as well.

Haha yeah, I almost wrote the Rockets loss at home and the Utah loss at home. Those games were such gut punches.

The game the other day vs the Spurs was very winnable too. There was a time when a loss like that would have been a moral victory, but without all the bad TOs and missed FTs we had in that game, we should have won it. Just one more made FT or one less bad TO wins us that game in regulation.

.

Those six games were against Houston, San Antonio, Utah, Clippers, Sacramento and Dallas

This is the team I thought we'd be seeing back in November. It took a lot longer than I expected, but we are getting there.

That's pretty nuts.

Nice win. Schedule is still insane. Only have 4 games vs teams tanking.

Nice

Wolves last 10 games:

W Bulls 117-89
L Cavs 108-116
W @Nuggets 112-99
W Mavericks 97-84
L @Rockets 130-142
W @Kings 102-88
W @Jazz 107-80
L @ Spurs 90-97 Overtime
W Clippers 107-91
W Warriors 103-102

I'm guessing that's been the hardest schedule in the league the last 10 games Wolves are outscoring opponents 107.3-98.8

**** yeah!
