Christopher Hine @ChristopherHine
Budenholzer got T’d up arguing McDaniels was holding Middleton while going over the screens. Next time McDaniels does it, he gets the call. – 8:22 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Bobby Portis just made his season debut with 6:41 left in the first quarter.
A BOBBY! BOBBY! BOBBY! chant started. – 8:22 PM

Mike Budenholzer just got T’d up for Khris Middleton. Middleton got hit on a 3-point attempt.
He is alllll the way out on the floor. Pretty much never see Bud do that. – 8:20 PM

Kane Pitman @KanePitman
Pat Connaughton projects to be one of the best stretch fives in the NBA this season if he keeps shooting like this. – 8:18 PM

Timberwolves up, 16-7, with 8:40 left in the first quarter.
Minnesota has yet to miss a shot. 7-for-7 from the field. – 8:16 PM

Montrezl Harrell has 11 pts in 9 min on 5-6 FG. This one was way harder than it looks. pic.twitter.com/hezGD0Kmwf8:16 PM

Bucks are on the board with a Pat Connaughton 3. – 8:12 PM

Christopher Hine @ChristopherHine
Vanderbilt in the starting lineup for the first time and he gets the unenviable assignment of guarding Giannis. McDaniels on Middleton. – 8:12 PM

Jon Krawczynski @JonKrawczynski
Finch started Jarred Vanderbilt to get some more size into this thing. Will be interesting to see how he and KAT mesh offensively. – 8:11 PM

Will Guillory @WillGuillory
Really like how Kira is getting into the paint early on. Has a couple nice passes too. Looks much more in control than he did in Minnesota. – 8:09 PM

FWIW, Jalen Rose says on air that w/o Kyrie the Nets aren’t better than the Bucks, Heat or Hawks in the East – 7:30 PM

Paul Garcia @PaulGarciaNBA
The Spurs had a better night yesterday shooting the wide open 3.
53% of the Spurs’ 3s were wide open. San Antonio made 47% of them.
Against the Bucks, SA made just 25% of their wide open 3s. – 7:25 PM

Pregame work from @Pat Connaughton and @Semi Ojeleye before tonight’s game against the Timberwolves. pic.twitter.com/Kz4PicoCRt6:52 PM

Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA
When asked pregame about offensive efficiency, Chris Finch joked that everyone is more efficient than they are right now. Also said the Bucks D is more like calculus where the Wolves D is still learning algebra.
Refreshing, honest analysis of where the team currently stands. – 6:51 PM

Dane Moore @DaneMooreNBA
My @PrizePicks over/unders for Wolves-Bucks
– Love Hill over 8.5 pts
No Jrue. Patient player to attack Wolves’ gaps. Hits 3s
– DLo over 18.5 pts
High #, but think DLo has a game
– KAT over 10.5 rebs
Someone’s gotta get em
– Giannis under 30.5 pts
Wolves scheme prioritizes rim D – 6:47 PM

Eric Nehm @eric_nehm
Mike Budenholzer said he expects Bobby Portis and Semi Ojeleye to play tonight.
He then said those two are not in the starting lineup before clarifying he doesn’t know who is in the starting lineup and saying the starting lineup will be released 30 minutes before the game. – 6:29 PM
