All Things 2025-2026 Minnesota Timberwolves In-Season Thread


I don't think one person has claimed that is the reason for all of our problems let alone defensively. It's a big reason though for the team having issues. To not see that is insane.

Based on what? The constant clamoring for a new PG on here is due to not being able to setup the offense and TO's allegedly. Those have nothing to do with solving the defense issues and they're in the middle of the pack in TO's per game.
 

What you said earlier about the Naz/Randle combo is the issue. They are the worst frontcourt duo defensively in years right now. That's the #1 problem.

There are many combo guards/shooting guards playing lead guard across the NBA right now. That's today's NBA. Needing a classic PG is not how it works anymore and there are very few of those that even exist. It's not the issue with why this team isn't playing defense right now.
What would you call Dillingham?
 

We are taking the crap teams to the woodshed.

The good teams are taking us to the woodshed.

Can we pick it up?

You are using a lot of labels. Basically there are a number of pg's in the NBA that shoot the ball really well and can run an offense. Ant isn't one of them. Claiming that Ant can do both at a high level is nonsense.
 






A comparatively low usage to assist ratio and well below 2:1 assist to turnover ratio. He’s a great scorer who shouldn’t be running an offense.

4 of the 5 starters can run the offense and do. It's not only on Ant and never will be.

The offense has not been the problem this year.
