Losing to bad teams is how it works for "elite" teams?

losing back to backs is what happens to everyone

It looks like 12 points from the dpoy cumbersome big wasn't enough last night.

can't be a 4 time dpoty and be cumbersome Bot

Down 3 but playing good D without Gobert. Good sign. Missing his rim gravity at the other end obviously though

[Xiao Yao You]

what happened to Marcus Morris joining the team btw? Only has a week to do so I believe. Would like to see Gobert fave George Hill join even if he's just a deep bench piece

Gonna have to start missing some shots in order to secure the scheduled loss...

Meltdown.

Checked the weather forecast and it looks fine to me!

a bunch of t's at the end

Has to be one of their best defensive performances of the year on a back to back without their defensive anchor. Impressive! This is not the crap Rudy played with in Utah. Did get out rebounded. Maybe first time all year?

18. Rudy Gobert


Rudy Gobert sure isn’t popular with the casual NBA fan, but observant audiences won’t be shocked to see Gobert give a speech in front of his peers in Massachusetts someday. Gobert’s rim protection and overall defensive acumen are unmatched to the tune of three Defensive Player of the Year trophies.

soon to be 4

Great 1st for the Wolves
