FSN 668 Away game.
Teague is out. Rose is day to day. If they are both out likely win since we should be riding high after beating OKC.

Nice to see the wolves getting out to a solid lead against an inferior team. Too many times in the first quarter we play down to the bad teams

A game we should have won and we won.

Derek Rose sure looked good again tonight. Great to see the guys move the ball but then Thibs gets them in the one on one matchup game. Bench players come in at the 2 minute mark with Nunally Tolly Tyus Okogie and Bayless.
Our Wolves made it look easy tonight.
Zach had 28 on 10 of 17 and was only a minus-2.

This team would stink without him. I thought that Gorgui played really well in his 11 minutes, although his +/- was low (which is why I hate +/-). If he can continue to give good minutes off the bench, playing defense and being efficient on defense it will really help this team. It was great to see Tyus get a little roll going on offense too. I've been hoping that his shot would fall for him eventually. His assists were pretty low though for 20 minutes. If we could somehow merge the consistency of Tyus with the talent of Teague we'd have a heck of a PG on this team.

BTW Marney Gellner did a great job with play by play tonight. I didnt realize she was so good. She could be doing the NBA. I think if Benz ever leaves they should have her do it.

Bentz has grown on me over the years, but I wouldn't be sad to see him leave. I know I'm in the minority, but I still miss Tom Hanneman as our play-by-play guy.

I miss Kevin Harlan who was better than all put together. No wonder he made the National gig big time.
"He went up high, and came down hard"!
Marney Gelner has done the play by play for years for the MN Lynx.
I really like Alan Horton who is the Wolves radio announcer on WCCO 830. The guy does both the play by play AND color for each broadcast. He really gets into it. He'd be my choice if a change were made.

Always with the puns drove me nuts. Harlan was so awesome and his voice was great. He made the big time in a short amount of time.

But I thought he and JPete had a great rapport and I kind of liked his cheesy puns. I never really heard Harlan call a game, as I was living outside of the local market and didn't have League Pass back then.

Benz does a good job and Jim Pete is awesome. As someone else noted Alan Horton is incredible. He's great for radio but I'd still love to get him in the booth with Jim Pete if Benz ever leaves. Its unfortunate that Hortons talent is somewhat wasted in the radio booth as not as many people will hear him.

No need to play 4 starters 32+ when you're up 20 and playing the worst team in the NBA but Thibs gonna Thibs.
