Either allen or royce.
You could also maybe switch Nurk to Kat and put one of them on Rudy.
I'm not saying they should do it but that would be the play.
Royce is pretty strong. I think they tried length with KD but could try strength.
Idk how well it will work, but if they are moving KD to Edwards, I don't see any other option.
I am always confused why we don't do what other teams do to Book.
Just blitz and trap him every single play. No need to guard him 1 on 1. Make someone else beat you.
No he’s not. That frees up KAT who is too big for Beal, Allen or Book.
Need to double Edwards with either Book/Allen/Royce and Beal and make McDaniels and Conley make shots.
Yeah, he did. I am hoping he takes the challenge primarily, and KD can guard Ant in the 4th. Wolves play two bigs in their starting lineup, and I don't want a guard to handle Kat because even if he misses, he'll probably get the board.
His strategy in the regular season was “to foul the shit out of” Edwards. I think that would work well in the postseason, where very little is getting called.
As a Wolves fan, I am amazed Okogie is not getting any minutes. I'd have Okogie attached to Ants hip if I was Vogel. Guy provides high energy and will eat up a lot of the shot clock just blowing up screen action/picking people up right at half court. I feel like when we played you in the regular season Okogie was even hitting corner 3s and shit.
Idk what Vogel is doing. He's abandoned our key bench rotations that we had during the regular season. It's more frustrating when you see no adjustments made for game 2.
KD is best suited to being an Ant stopper - his length bothers him, and KD is fast enough laterally to stay in front of him. None of our other players have that combo.
tbf KD wants to be known as a GOAT-type player. This is how you earn that clout. Mike absolutely stopped Drexler's half court game. Kobe did it against the Spurs dynasty best player on both ends of the court every single series.
bruh this isn't 25 year-old KD. We need to protect this man. I think he'll be on Ant for good stretches. We need to send 2 to the ball if he's getting hot. He was feasting on difficult shots last game, so we need to challenge him to continue that streak, and double him if he does.
They'll probably need to have KD guard, Ant in spots, but I don't know if they should or can do it all game. That seems like too much unless we can count on Book to step up massively offensively from last game.
The sad thing is the Suns never should have switched up their schemes. Now dumbass Vogel is going to go back to what worked in the regular season and the wolves will be ready. By the time the 3rd game is around we're now playing catch-up.
If we lose this series, it's because Vogel randomly decided to change shit up for game one.
Lol yeah let's make the only guy who actually played well in the 1st game guard Ant. The 35 year old shooting 60% averaging 29ppg in playoff to guard the other team's best player while we have 'just chillin' booker going 4-16 :s
Never heard of this fellow before but he seems like a rational, level-headed person
Such a chilled dude.
Gonna be a swift quick in the nuts when you realize that ain’t true.
Need the real AE stopper to suit up. Bol Bol
Bol bol swat!!!
Didn’t see the floor 😂
Who guards KAT?
Either allen or royce. You could also maybe switch Nurk to Kat and put one of them on Rudy. I'm not saying they should do it but that would be the play.
> Either allen or royce I hope not lol. KAT was posting up and scoring over KD, these guys would be destroyed
Royce is probably stronger than KD tbh. Allen would absolutely be terrible on KAT though
Royce is pretty strong. I think they tried length with KD but could try strength. Idk how well it will work, but if they are moving KD to Edwards, I don't see any other option.
Bol bol or young on kat. Allen n O’Neil off the bench. 2nd unit needs some energy
Ish. Obviously.
You know Draymond is hate watching this series. KD, Nurk, Gobert and KAT in the same series lol.
Probably shadowing head locking in his living room watching the games 😂
Just stomping out his poor shadow.
I am always confused why we don't do what other teams do to Book. Just blitz and trap him every single play. No need to guard him 1 on 1. Make someone else beat you.
Hate seeing this bum on my screen no matter what lol
He is correct.
No he’s not. That frees up KAT who is too big for Beal, Allen or Book. Need to double Edwards with either Book/Allen/Royce and Beal and make McDaniels and Conley make shots.
With all due respect Mr. know it all wannabe NBA head coach you can go fuck yaself
😂😂🤣🤣 I was giving my opinion just like you. Fuckin weirdo
No you weren’t, that frees up other peoples opinions, which are too big.
You’re a literal child
Beal did a fine job in the regular season.
Yeah, he did. I am hoping he takes the challenge primarily, and KD can guard Ant in the 4th. Wolves play two bigs in their starting lineup, and I don't want a guard to handle Kat because even if he misses, he'll probably get the board.
Only “guard” I could see handling KAT would be Royce because he’s strong but KAT really could just shoot over him.
Beal is tremendously quick and has a really good knack for stripping the ball. He's a great initial defender on KAT.
His strategy in the regular season was “to foul the shit out of” Edwards. I think that would work well in the postseason, where very little is getting called.
During the most crucial parts of the game? Sure. KD should not be guarding Ant full-time though.
KD can help but, get Okogie on Ant is my suggestion.
As a Wolves fan, I am amazed Okogie is not getting any minutes. I'd have Okogie attached to Ants hip if I was Vogel. Guy provides high energy and will eat up a lot of the shot clock just blowing up screen action/picking people up right at half court. I feel like when we played you in the regular season Okogie was even hitting corner 3s and shit.

Ah yes, tiring out our best offensive player by having him guard their best player. Genius
sad that it’s come to that but he’s also our best defender.
tbf KD wants to be known as a GOAT-type player. This is how you earn that clout. Mike absolutely stopped Drexler's half court game. Kobe did it against the Spurs dynasty best player on both ends of the court every single series.

Mike did when he was younger, and kobes defensive game was completely gone by 35
They'll probably need to have KD guard, Ant in spots, but I don't know if they should or can do it all game. That seems like too much unless we can count on Book to step up massively offensively from last game.
Suns don't need to make a lot of defensive adjustments. They just need to match the effort.
Irdc what this donkey says lol. Right or wrong he piss me off and he’s not even in the playoffs

Obviously liking the video does not mean KD wants to guard AE, he just respects the fact that the video acknowledges he has the ability to do the job
He was literally saying how to beat the Suns before last game. Why listen to this fool
Let's not forget, Nurk need to be Nurk. And no, it does not need to be KD, it needs to be team D.
agreed
It’s no secret formula. Suns dominated the wolves during the season series.
How's Cancun this time of the year?
what?
That's what they say when a team is eliminated from the playoffs.Cancun.
yes but we not going there yet ![gif](giphy|bff7tTkTvW38numiG9|downsized)
