December 11th - New Orleans Pelicans vs Minnesota Timberwolves - 12-11

The memo is out on Trey's 3 point shot, but he just did back to back fake and drive from behind the line. Smart.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Crap end to the 3rd

[Pelicanidae]

Naji always hits the ****-you 3

[Pelicanidae]

Let me guess, 3 point disparity is keeping the T-wolves in the game?

They've hit 10, we've hit 7. So yeah.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Naji does come up big at times, but I won’t lie, I’m looking forward to (hoping for) the day Dyson’s offense progresses to the point where Naji becomes expendable.

[Pelicanidae]

Damn near a steal there but good disruption

[Freyfamilyreuni]

That was ugly

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Herb seems like he’s good for at least 1 coast to coast a game

Herb is a interesting mix of being soft spoken but also one of the most passionate and competitive guys on the team.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Nice sequence there. CJ playing more in the flow.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

I wish CJ would cut that crap out

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Is it too much to ask that we get Jonas some touches?

[Pelicanidae]

Said it last game in one of the few positive parts of the entire thing: Herb drives until someone stops him. He discovered this ability this season and it's serving him very well.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Like to see some 2 man action with BI and Zion

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Nice reflexes by Zion

[Pelicanidae]

Zion gets the loose ball in the scramble and finishes over a completely broken Minnesota defense lmao

[hornetsrebirth]

Season high for Z

[Pelicanidae]

Number 1 Defense in the NBA Minnesota Timberwolves.

[Pelicanidae]

Number 1 Defense in the NBA Minnesota Timberwolves.

For more detail: best defense of any team in any season since the 2016-17 Warriors, Minnesota Timberwolves.

[hornetsrebirth]

to be fair they are missing their best player who also happens to be a hell of a wing defender in addition to number 1 option on offense

[Pelicanidae]

They are playing two perennial all-NBA members, one of which is a rim protecting big with multiple DPOYs, and another great all defensive in McDaniels who many are touting as DPOY calibre.

In summary, I think it's still notable.

[Pelicanidae]

BI getting the fouls late here is great for him, he's struggled offensively in the second half so the more fouls he can draw the better.

[djrnno]

For the 1st time this season I can say WG didn't suck

[donato]

In a way it’d be nice for Zion to get 40. But he needs the keep working and earn that 40.

[Freyfamilyreuni]

Nice to see Dyson get a lot of run
