The 4-4 Timberwolves face the 7-0 Bucks tonight. Via the Minneapolis Star Tribune:
With two days off between their games against Phoenix and Milwaukee, the Timberwolves were able to get in a practice Thursday, and coach Chris Finch said the Wolves’ primary focus was in one area.
“Ball movement,” Finch said. “… Pretty much all we did was ball movement stuff.”
Anyone who has watched the Wolves over the last week can see this is one of the biggest issues they have. There is plenty of standing around, dribbling and isolation offense.
Their hope to improve on offense won’t get any easier on Friday night when unbeaten Milwaukee visits Minnesota and brings to town the No. 1 most-efficient defense in the league. The Bucks are allowing 101.3 points per 100 possessions, three points better than the next best team — the Lakers — entering Thursday.
The Wolves have the 23rd-rated offense (109.9).
