FYI: Anthony Edwards
    The only players with more 40-point games before turning 21 are Luka, KD and LeBron

    Anthony Edwards scored a career-high 48 points for Minnesota, hitting seven 3-pointers vs the Warriors.

    This kid is a human highlight reel.

My take on Minny is that Anthony Edwards could be good enough that you can build a roster around him... so if the T-Wolves and Karl-Anthony Towns decide to move on the Wolves can still build a competitive roster.

Imo they should move on. Build around Edwards and trade KAT and DLO

If they don’t win this one they should look at alternate careers.

Isn’t that kind of the problem? Arguably half the roster already is.

Retirement and alternative careers is so much easier then the grind of chasing around the young guys night after night for a season.

That snarkiness aside…

Let’s Go Lakers! Keep the win streak going.

KAT and DLO are just not winners. they put up good numbers but when the stakes are higher, their performance shrinks. since this a regular season game early in the season, look for both of them have a career night.

Yeah I was watching a re-broadcast of the Warriors/TWolves game from the other night and I don't know if it boils down to specific players or the system of the team and culture of the organization but they had this crazy stat that they repeated about how the TWolves come out like the house on fire i the first half and then completely fade in the second half. Which is what happened in that game. They have better talent than that. It feels like something is going on with that team. But yes let's not have DLo suddenly turn into Game 6 Klay tonight lol

If they lose this one, it totally takes away the Charlotte and Miami wins tbh.

They have to continue racking up wins after their 2 OKC debacles.

That tough eastern trip is coming up.

The right choice over LaMelo?

Well the last 2 games are some encouragement. I do think the Lakers stand a good chance in this one.

GO LAKERS!

Depends on which Westbrook shows up tonight...

But Lakers are due for a blow out win.

maybe, maybe not, they both are future super-stars. Since Minny has DLO they went the other way. BUT I'm sure Charlotte "aint mad at 'em."

He has a higher ceiling than Lamelo, and based on what I see so far, he will be a super star rather soon.

I haven't watched them lately but I remember catching some of the Bucks game they won and then were beating the Nuggets the entire game only to lose at the very end. Hopefully that version doesn't come to play against the Lakers which is sadly usually the case since it's the.... Lakers.

Still expecting a win but I don't think it's going to be easy. As much as they might not care in a lot of other second halves I doubt that will be as a big of a problem against us especially DLO.

We're also missing A LOT of actual rotation players so we need Russ to come out and just have a solid game at least and I think we win regardless.
