After watching wednesday's game agains Golden State, I realized that the Warriors are essentially the same team as the Timberwolves, but worse in all aspects but 3-point shooting. Both teams rely far too much on the jumpshot, they both play poor interior defense and are bottom-rate offensive rebounding clubs. The fact that the Wolves scored 63 in the first half alone, had more to do with poor defense, and less to do with good shooting or good offensive sets. KG had 8 assists in the first half because he was able to pass out of double teams, straight into a wide open teammate standing under the basket. Glad to have the blowout win, but too bad it looked like we were just beating ourselves out there.
Daily Moment of Jaric:
Fastbreaking Jaric dribbled down the floor behind Ricky Davis and Mike James, with a single Golden State defender in front, and Garnett trailing a few steps behind Jaric. Instead of passing to one of the two open guards, or splitting the one-man defense, Jaric dropped the ball off behind him for Garnett, who has to take a dribble and jump sideways to avoid committing the charge on the lone defender. Ticket goes to the free throw line for the blocking foul.
