yeah. I got them to go about 22-25 the rest of the way. That January schedule is murder and I have them to run out of gas in March.

Well, I wish you a lot of luck with that prediction.

Predictions are fun even when you're wrong. I'm booking this one.

Solid start in Milwaukee and Jones looks great running the offense just as I told you he would

Teague was a HUGE mistake. Just don't understand how a guy like Thibs fall in love with him.

Same. He was getting the same production from straight up out-of-the-league guys like Nate Robinson. It might be the one transaction that sinks the entire Wolves contending window.

He likes those crusty vet types
I'm sure Teague is happy to slow it down so he can take plenty of ill advised threes . I don't completely dislike him i just don't think he's a good fit for them

Christ this turned ugly to watch.

edit: Thibs needs his PG's to be 'combo guards.' He needs the PG to be a scorer. It is the one thing I will always disagree with him on.

I'm not sure losing Teague hurts at all. They might be better without him.

Too many fucking mistakes in the second half. Atrocious basketball.

I saved you a spot on the Spurs bandwagon just in case.

Great start. Should be another easy game tonight.

Lakers really miss Lonzo. With him they’re just pretty bad. Without him they’re the worst team in the league.

Talk of Butler being in the MVP conversation. I like it.

I like their players but if you don't think the Thibs watch is on you're delusional.

I like Towns, Wiggins, Levine, Dunn, and Dieng. Tyus Jones is cool too.

I think Thibs will screw it up though. Once he does there can't be any excuses.


You're setting yourself up for a "if they're good it's due to talent and if they suck it's due to Thibs" argument. Not gonna happen. They have no prior record of excellence. If it happens under Thibs then he necessarily played a role in that. If you don't agree to this then there's no point of a debate.



Remember when this was the response? :lol: :lol:

Well, as Butler is now an MVP candidate, it is at least partially due to talent. Crazy how LTG thinks Lavine and Dunn are so good and Butler is so bad and yet the Timberwolves record looks quite differently from this time last season.

We have a long way to go. He isn't an MVP candidate either.

Kyrie Irving is and it still doesn't prevent you from bashing the hell out of him.

Carmelo Anthony routinely improved records and you can never get enough of bashing him. Check the stats.

Minnesota's record was bound to improve and it doesn't seem like people are really missing Butler around the UC all that much.

Safe to say that the Bulls record (with a healthy roster)wouldn't be much different without him. They also lost other players that helped contribute from last season too.

Well they both are MVP candidates currently. https://www.fanragsports.com/2018-nba-m ... ains-lead/

But that isn't my only source. Both the Timberwolves broadcast crew and Pacers broadcast crew have discussed it in the past few games, as well as NBA TV.

I bash Kyrie as a one dimensional player. Right now he has them in the same place Isaiah Thomas had them last season. IT4 was no MVP.

You don't seriously believe that. Now you're just saying as many things you can as quickly as you can to try to tire the argument. We both know you aren't trying to value Taj Gibson.

Please. They're on pace to have a better record than last season. Actually on pace to win 60 games. You may want to take a math class. They also don't have the same roster and are missing their 2nd best player.


Wolves announcers? Generally like them but they are wrong on this one. A little homerism. There is no buzz surrounding Butler. His supporting cast is better than Irving's and Irving has been doing it since the start of the season.

Not even a conversation.

God it feels amazing to see Towns actually take it strong and use his size once in awhile

This should be an easy win
