My bad for missing the sarcasm, I thought you were serious. Just a little misunderstanding. Good win tonight and Dmo played outstanding. That's all that matters.
Missed the game tonight. How did DMo get most of his shots? Was he playing the 4 or 5 in the offense?
He played ok, his post ups looked a little flat, but for whatever reason he usually slows down and plays better when he is a bit winded. Nice to see the entire team playing well - we are gonna need to keep it up for the rest of the year, a 49 pt win certainly helps the stats folks who care about our points for vs points against. DD
He most definitely played a lot better, still has aways to go. He should be fully ready by the playoffs. Yes sir the entire team played tremendous tonight.
We won't have a chance against the Warriors or Spurs but if we get the thunder we can give them a fight. I like the dynamic of this team after our deadline deals. Our vets are getting hot at the right time and I like the influx of unique talent in Beasley And our young guys. I was really on board with semi tanking for the right to our pick but possible playoff success is in sight now. We really have nothing to lose. I'm ready to give these teams a tough series.
I think we have 20% chance against the Spurs. 10% chance against the Warriors. 40% chance against both the Thunder and Grizzlies. 50% chance against the Blazers. 60-70% chance against the Clippers and Mavericks
Yeah pretty much. I would say even a less % against warriors and Spurs but I just wanna see us stress out some fan bases in the postseason. Like literally there is nothing to lose for this season.
Severely overestimating Grizzlies, a team without their best player. Zbo and Conley will not be enough, lucky to win 2 games against Rockets.
Due to circumstance. Riiiiiiight. The same team that had Wesley Johnson playing heavy minutes at the SG, Anthony Tolliver playing minutes at both forward positions, Martell Webster splitting minutes as a swingman, and Corey Brewer being traded but before also playing heavy minutes at the 3 spot. To me it seems like that first season he had some help at that position and the Wolves could have benefited him more by playing back up 4 to Love. Beasley wasn't incredibly better than those guys and could have easily let one of Brewer or Webster start while he played back up 4 to Love. But nah. "Circumstance" this situation lol. It's not him playing the position he was better suited for but circumstance. The second season where his minutes increased at the 3 spot substantially? Lets see... Wesley Johnson is now playing SF more and is the starting sf. Derrick Williams is a rookie and gets a large portion of his minutes at the 4 spot as a poor back up. Webster is still getting about 24 minutes a game and splitting time as a wing. Kevin Love gets injured and misses 30 games. In my opinion.. that sounds like the perfect recipe for Michael Beasley to go back to logging minutes at the 4. But he didn't instead it was a 70-30 favor of him logging minutes at 3. I guess the circumstances... didn't really matter this time, no? Omg my argument is so circular. So many circles. 360s everywhere :'( Please no Jason Richardson 360 dunk. Too many circles. And typical of you to insert yourself into the discussion, but then try to dismiss the discussion by quoting some wikipedia article you read years ago. Bill Russell really isn't a center. He's just the big guy who rebounds the ball, defends the rim, and scores in the paint. Bob Cousy? Point guard?? What?? No! He's the small guy on the court who dribbles the ball the best, creates for himself and others, and is usually the floor general!! Absurd! We don't need no dang name for that! AGH I HATE LABELS. I'm with Raven Symone on this one!!! I'm American!
But Motiejunas and Beasley did play great tonight. Proud of the guys, but I need them to do it more consistently to end the season. We might actually have a promising 4 rotation going into the playoffs for the first time in a long time. Crossing my fingers on the boys. I loved when Dwight got the rebound and passed it back to Captain Hook. Part of me felt like it was out of character because DD said Dwight is selfish. A selfish guy would have patted his stats there with the put back. I guess everyone was feeling groovy tonight.
What are you talking about? Beasley was not with Minnesota when Love had his injury year. He was playing for Phoenix. You must be confusing Love's injury year with the lock-out year when the league only played 66 games.
Hopefully, DMO can keep this up..would be a big boost going into the playoffs healthy with the addition of Beasley and Goldilocks coming off the bench
It was a feel good game against a totally undermanned team but hey I'll take it and games like that is what helps build confidence. Next game will be a big test for sure.
