21 losses in a row for the Detroit Pistons.

I think it is hilarious Dray got suspended indefinitely. Best thing for them anyway as their run is over.

Lakers remain undefeated without LeBron in the lineup...

And the Spurs have now lost 18 straight and somehow I believe they don't have the longest losing streak in the league (I believe Detroit is at 20 and counting).

Very little good basketball being played in the Association right now; a pretty fair amount of truly awful ball being played to boot.

Gotta help Draymond.

"Wild flail" LMAO

Kerr defended all of these actions and Draymond justified them.

I love the call on that one. “The Jayhawk…”

The Wolves just beat the Mavs with Ant shooting something like 3-18 from the field. I wonder if performances like this might cause folks to begin altering their predictions about Minny NOT staying toward the top of the West.

I'm as big of a "Woe is us" Wolves fan as they come, but even I can tell this is a very good basketball team and not at all the intriguing but flawed team of the past couple seasons that lived in the play-in tournament.

It's not just Gobert playing better, it's not just Ant continuing his success and growth, and it's not even KAT reducing a lot of the dumb shit he used to do. It's the depth that's impressive. When Kyle Anderson is your second big off the bench, that's a versatile as **** front court. They are very weak at PG behind Conley, whose age needs to considered by the team as the season drags on, but that isn't anything they can't try to fix at the trade deadline. A nice little move might be snagging Tyus Jones on an expiring contract-- would be great solid veteran to have off the bench.

Not predicting championship or even WCF appearance at this point, but it's pretty obvious with the wins they've already racked up and what they are as a team that they have all the makings to win lots of games and get a high seed in the playoffs. You can't ask for more than that as a Wolves fan. Just getting that plus a first round series win would be a fantastic season.

Let's not kid ourselves, though. KAT has been a fairly significant part of the problem in the past. This season, he actually appears to be part of the solution. That's a BIG deal, IMO.

On a related note, KAT put up a ho-hum 40 in another win today.
