Can someone who was paying more attention to the game than I was tell me why Dunn didn't play in crunch time last night?

Lockback posted:For what it's worth, Tyus had a better +/- than Dunn did (+0 vs -3). Not a whole lot  Was he taking bad shots or missing open ones? I just noticed that he was 1-6 (I did happen to see that one make though which was a really nice drive to the basket)

Lockback posted:A few rookie bad decisions, a couple good shots that didn't fall. He was working harder to get other guys involved (which is good). I also think he and Wiggins maybe overlap a bit, they both seem to want to work going downhill or cutting weakside baseline to the basket. Dunn looked pretty good though he was captaining some really sloppy play for a while. Interesting. I'll have to try to keep watch for that stuff next game. Also, random question for Zogobot: how common is it for a team to lose three of four games when they had a 15+ point lead at some point in all of them?

Blake Griffin will sign with the Wolves and I will be mildly annoyed because I don't like him.

Kibner posted:Try following a team where all national coverage is like "This guy rules but needs to get off his team immediately! What if <x> team can trade for him with <y> and <z> scrubs?! Maybe throw in <garbage> pick to sweeten the deal, although it's already a much better return for him than anyone else can give, imo.". You're responding to a Timberwolves fan...

Lockback posted:If Rubio comes back they might, Dunn/Tyus makes no sense but Rubio/Tyus would or Rubio/Dunn sort of does if you want to try death by cutters with Wiggins and Shabazz. Brandon Rush has been total trash so Thibs might start getting creative. He could also start activating Lucas to do a two PG lineup since he's more of a scoring PG anyways.

Glen Taylor is apparently fighting to remove the limit on how many max rookie contract extensions you can hand out in the next CBA. Can't imagine why.

Lockback posted:Who's gunna start? I hope they give it back to Ricky, Dunn seems like he's be better server gunning with the 2nd Unit. Though Tyus has been pretty good this young season too. Considering how Dunn is playing I can't imagine Dunn would start.

Apparently Wiggins is the first ever canadian-born NBA player to score 40+ in a game.

I don't think Wiggins ever really got "next Lebron" hype, and he certainly plays a very different type of game. He's never going to be putting up rebounding or assist numbers anywhere near what LeBron does, for example.

Did anyone really predict the Wolves to win 50 games? I was probably the most bullish on them here and even I said 45-ish, 48 as a ceiling if a whole lotta stuff goes right.

Lockback posted:Who was the last good US born player who skipped the college track? I'm legit happy they are giving d league players decent salaries, but I'm not sure if this affects the pro game much. I'm not sure it's a good comparison because the options were to play for bad teams in Europe/China/Australia and they weren't really a good development environment. Also at least in college, even if you're not getting paid (lol), you've still got free housing and meals for the one year.

chunkles posted:That D-League thing is cool. Add their per diem and poo poo and they're actually at a livable wage. Now if they could just get some D-League teams that aren't in the rear end end of nowhere (Austin and Santa Cruz excluded). I don't think the per diem is what makes it a livable wage when they're making 50k.

It's called "hope" and it means you can feel pain again when it gets taken away from you. But then again feeling pain means you felt good enough to feel it in the first place.
