The Timberwolves blew a 12 point lead with 2 minutes to go against the Rockets. They'll be trying to bounce back. Meanwhile, the Suns will be out for revenge as the Wolves won in Phoenix in early November.
Go Suns!!!

was there any clarification on the pj tj starting comments from last game?
hope knight plays well - for the sake of a Rubio trade
seriously knight has had some patches recently of attacking the rim to setup teammates allowing chriss for example to get some easy scores. Then in a blink of an eye, he goes back to gunning long 2's and putting his head down on drives.
Wish they would direct him to go out and focus on attaching to setup teammates. He may not be the best at it, but we look a hell of a lot better when he does

Is this our third game of the season against the Wolves already?

In other news - Southwest Airlines has made another terrible commercial to beat us over the heads with.

Come one, come all! See the AMAZING Brandon Knight! He shoots, he scores! What CAN'T The Amazing Brandon Knight do? Long 2s, fade-aways, dribble-drives, step-backs! Is there any shot he can't take? 12 points in a half? NO PROBLEM! And what's more, the Amazing Brandon Knight can be YOURS for the even more amazing price of a single first-round pick!

Almost all of our scoring is being done by our three lead guards: Bledsoe, Knight, and Booker. This is almost certainly because they have the ball in their hands almost the whole time. I will give them credit that each has 3 assists so far.

Towns looks like he's from a different planet than any of our players.

We just don't get any easy baskets. Bledsoe or Knight have to just "create" something every play and take some kind of runner or fadeaway. Our offense is such poodoo.

Oof. Wolves get about 5 shot attempts on one possession. Towns just reached over us over and over to get offensive boards.

Suns guards keep missing FTs that would help them close this gap.

And we are led in minutes by Tucker (36), Bledsoe (33) and Chandler (32)
Well, Bledsoe I can understand.
