1·2 years agoHow do you not just snap it there. Even if he did catch it you can’t afford it being overturned. Just run one of your classic Mattison into his guards for -1 right off the rip.

1·2 years agoDo I as a Vikings fan have a right to be mad if Mullens isn’t under center after the commercial break or am I just being a prisoner of the moment right now.
Dobbs has shown that not only can he not make plays, but his accuracy, velocity, and decisionmaking are playing a colossal role in this game right now.

1·2 years agoWhy did KOC think he could start calling passing plays like he had Kirk back in there? Only reason this thing with Dobbs has worked is because he’s been calling pass plays that are schemed open. Dobbs can’t throw receivers open and he can’t drop it in tight windows.

1·2 years agoNice negative yardage run play on first down. Gotta be at or near the top of the league for that.

1·2 years agoI just really wanna see KOC call plays like he’s trying to avoid third and long. Like just stay ahead of the sticks, no wasted 0 yard runs on first.

NBA - Main@nba.space•[Highlight] Anthony Edwards isolation defense and block on Derrick Rose to force a shotclock violationEnglish
1·2 years agoThe “let’s see it against prime Drose” thing is missing the point of why this is exciting entirely.
We know he can guard the elite ball handlers in the league in high leverage moments, like he’s got all-defensive caliber tape against a ton of stars in the league. Effort/consistency have always been the big question for him on defense. So to see him focused on defense like this in a meaningless game against a hapless team like this is really promising.

1·2 years agoAnt and KAT combining for one attempt from three in a game like this is unacceptable.
It sucks that we don’t have more high volume 3 point role players, but KAT and Ant need to shoulder that load.

1·2 years agoKAT playing defense like this is a game changer. Straight-up, strong defense in the paint, shuffling his feet and keeping his hands active on the perimeter. Over the last few seasons, he’d improved from a bad defender to a mediocre defender, and this year he’s just actively a good defender.

NBA - Main@nba.space•Patrick Beverly’s thoughts on the Draymond-Rudy fight | via Pat Bev PodEnglish
1·2 years agoLmao. Instead of retaliating, KAT helped break the fight up, scored a third of the teams points and came out with a win.
Star players’ value comes from what they do on the court. PatBev thinks that’s the proportional response cause he’s a bench player whose presence on the court is a net loss for his own team as often as it is a net asset. A player like him or Draymond can afford to get thrown out of game, KAT cannot.
It was obvious once Draymond starting jawing with Ant a few nights ago that he’s trying to stir something up to bait technicals or get guys thrown out of the game. That KAT didn’t lean into that is a huge part of what won them that game

1·2 years agoAnother one of those games that last year’s team would have lost. Weird start with the fight, colossally undermanned opponent, absolutely nothing going right on either end for them. That’s the kind of game where they’d just fold with zero resistance in the 2nd half.
Games like this and the Spurs game are just as big in convincing me that this team is different than years past as wins against teams like the Celtics or Nuggets.

1·2 years agoWarriors completely let them back into this game, but they need someone to start hitting some goddamn shots. It can’t be Ant every single night.
KOC is a complete fucking loser. Like just does not deserve to be in the reigns of a whole team. He makes the wrong decision way way way too often.
