Tonight we learn whether or not the Wolves played defense Monday it if Utah just missed shots.
I'm guessing the Jazz make an adjustment and have Rudy guard Graham instead of Towns. Rudy is worthless on the perimeter so this will allow him to play way off of Graham and be able to help protect the paint still. We were effective getting to the paint without Rudy there to protect it and I'm guessing the Jazz wont let that happen again
Does your mascot have a name? The jazz have a bear just called Jazz bear lol
KAT owns Rudy
Towns is like kryptonite to Gobert.
Wolves are 3 pt. underdogs?
fine, win by 10 again
They're still having Gobert chase Towns around the perimeter.
That’s certainly a choice.
Is it just me or has Quinn Snyder aged pretty rapidly since becoming the Jazz coach?
I remember when he was a fresh-faced Green Goblin.
Wiggins needs to stop shooting jump shots and just drive every time
Teague is getting destroyed on defense and contributing nothing on offense
Wolves really need him to play better.
Let's Gobert play offensive lineman on a moving screen but KAT cant get space to land without a foul?
horrible jazz commentators, horrible refs, **** this
9 straight offensive trips without anyone getting KAT the ball.
Quinn Snider looks like Dexters brother.
I could swear Benz said Gobert has a 7'9" standing reach. That can't be right, that's probably my standing reach
Jazz dared anybody not named Towns to shoot, and it worked out for them.
Just someone give KAT the ball to shoot please
Quin Snyder is built like a crackhead
I said it the other night too, but goberts screen are ****ing ridiculous. He moves as much as he wants, as well as using his arms.
Quin Synder looks like a serial killer
Rudy sets the subtlest illegal screens in the league.
Joe Ingles looks like he’s related to Tony Hawk. He looks like a nice dude. Is that weird?
Jazz with probably the best big defender in the NBA. Hard.
The wolves could really use an Ingles or a Bogdonavic
I don't think KAT has ever made that scoop layup in his entire career.
Is Snyder's assistant just handing him cocaine? he really looks like he's gumming it.
Watching Joe Ingles commit a smart intentional foul because they don't have numbers is so frustrating.
Mitchell is killing them this quarter
Great game plan from the Jazz
Smother Towns in the lane let the rest shoot.
If we had just one 3-point shooter like Bogdanov or Korver
We have to draft or trade for a couple of 3-point specialists.
Jazz have gone 6/9 from three in the 4th quarter
Goddamn got Bogdanović’d
When this team shoots poorly,
which will happen more often than not, they need to get second chances and play decent defense. It goes without saying they need to make the freebies. If other teams take away Towns they really can’t score.
The Jazz just gave the league a blueprint as to how to beat the Wolves. Unless every team gets to clone Rudy Gobert I'm not sure how their blueprint applies to other teams.
Why is it always players with weird *** names that have big games against us?
****in hell, bojan can shoot
I hate this guy Bojan.
Utah scoring pattern = 3,3,3,3,2,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,3,2,3,3,3,3. Learn some perimeter defense for crying out loud
Too bad Timberwolves basketball is give up a huge run, go on a run, and give up another huge run and repeat. Can’t play competitive basketball like that.
When Gobert blocks, he sends it down court the other way.
Jazz will be bringing their A game today. Instant revenge seeking.
No KAT means Gobert is gonna be near the rim all the time instead of hanging out near perimeter
I guess we should try running into people and yelling "AND ONNEEE" because that's apparently what NBA basketball is now.
Just stop the game and kick the refs out of the building. Just kick em out. Get the league on the phone and tell them to send new ones.
It feels like we might have Utah's number. LETS DO THIS BOYS
Someone tell Culver to stop trying to go over Gobert.
Towns is starting to remind me of when Kevin Love started loving feigning for fouls more then earning scores with shots. I forget they were talking about doing so on the bench because of these refs. But that was ugly falling down there.
Wiggins
The two floater layup shots over Gobert tonight > the two dunks over Gobert as a rookie
Jazz are playing better defense and they have a grasp on this game. Wolves have to increase the energy. Get some stops.
Culver is going have nightmares about gobert all night.
Pete's right. Utah has made adjustments. They look way better on defense right now. We need some big energy to respond. Not getting it so far.
Wiggins should at least pretend to have emotions
If Gobert doesn't get to the All Star Game I'd put good money on him making the Oscars
Credit to Gobert and the Jazz defensive plan.
Is this going to be 10 minutes straight of Jazz FT shots?
STOP. MISSING. FREE THROWS.
It annoys me so much how many of our blocks get recovered and turned into a bucket. It's like we get punished for blocking.
Over. Utah with a hail of threes in the 4th.
Beautiful execution by Utah. Dared us to shoot we couldn't they can.
Bogdanovic killed us both games
14 of 45 shooting
Clown show refs
A stiff for a game coach
Not good entertainment tonight.
Bogdanovic is the big difference between these teams. We sorely need a 3PT sniper.
Saunders getting badly outcoached lost us this game.
Snyder had a very specific game plan to limit touches for kat. Saunders did not adjust at all.
I just flat out do not want teague out there with towns and Wiggins. Nobody should be taking the ball out of their hands. Both of them, more so Wiggins as of late, know how to collapse the defense and get others open. Teague dribbling around and taking a contested shot at the rim while Wiggins and towns don't touch the ball makes the team 100% worse. The ball should go through one of towns or Wiggins if not both every time.
Why are we such a choke job at home but brilliant on the road?
Can blame the home crowd, the music, something I guess. It's a good question and someone hopefully figures it out.
Snyder had basically 2 jazz players on KAt and 2 on Wiggs.
Their job was to chase Kat off the line and limit wiggs' attacks at the rim. They were begging for the other 3 players on the court to try and beat them.
I have a tough time figuring out who our 3rd option is at this point.
Observations from Target Center
- that place was empty at the start of the game. Filled in a little bit as the game went on, but still only ~2/3 full, at best. If this is normal, I understand why the team has been coming out a bit flat at home this year.
- wow, that was a lot of free throws in the first quarter. Just the thing to ramp up the energy in the building.
- Gobert is really good. Utah’s defense becomes pretty average when he sits.
- Wiggins looked like the only player who could do anything on offense, tonight.
- I would have liked to see some clear outs for KAT. Gobert was playing him far out and I think Karl could have drove on him more, but it seemed like there was often another Wolve in the way.
- I’d also like to see KAT occasionally slip the screen on p’n’rs with Wiggins if teams are going to sell out on defending the 3.
- I really want to like Teague, but then I see him play.
- WTF Bogdonavich.
- the lady in front of us took A LOT of selfies. Seriously, I think she hit triple digits.
Have your team work on free throw shooting that's the #1 thing that needs to change if the wolves wanna be a playoff team .. Can't leave 10-15 points a night out there
Bench Teague and graham. They are costing us games
How come only Wiggins is scoring points?
Trade Teague. Please.
Make freethrows
Lets get the next one guys. Tough to play utah two games in a row. Lets beat the suns. Go Wolves!!
Good back and forth game, but you arent going to win NBA games shooting 31% from 3 and 51% from the free throw line. Poor transition defense down the stretch. A good learning experience to build on I suppose.
They have no chance of winning if Towns only gets 10 shots and scores 14 points.
I wish Jeff Teague actually want to play for us smh
“One bad game” did yu watch him last year? Trash! How many shots KAT get? What kind of starting PG don’t get the star involved? I see basketball dif stats really don’t mean **** to me I watch the games he’s been trash for a year & a half
Good road team, bad home team, that’s partially on the fans. Need their 6th man support!!
Only we could have a 6 point lead and then give up a 12-0 run in 70 second.
Karl with zero free throws for second straight game. Is that a record?
Teague was the best player for Utah tonight
I wasn't aware that Bogdanovic is the best player in the NBA
He killed us... but gotta give some respect for bojan. He’s a really good player, very underrated. That was a great signing for the jazz.
The mind......it falls apart watching Teague.
I'm guessing the Jazz make an adjustment and have Rudy guard Graham instead of Towns.
