– 8:28 PM The Wolves’ offense looks better (7-13 to start) but the defense isn’t as crisp so far. 7 early fast-break points for the Heat, and even breakdowns in the halfcourt losing assignments and letting guys get layups off backdoor cuts. – 8:22 PM Jaime Jaquez Jr. has had a couple of elite cuts in the first four minutes of this. His timing and willingness to move off the ball is fun. – 8:19 PM Jaime Jaquez Jr.
Adebayo with 16 points. Jovic 8 points, 8 rebounds. – 9:47 PM An odd night so far: Adebayo 4 of 8 from line, no other Heat free throws. Adebayo with 16 points, but just one rebound. Lowry 1 of 5, but six assists. – 9:41 PM The Heat have done a great job of handling the Wolves main actions But the most random 2 man games they fall apart against Milton-Anderson pick and pop is a blitz?

Kyle Lowry has been in Jovic’s ear trying to help him through it. – 9:37 PM Wolves up on Miami by 2 at half. Felt to me like the Wolves missed a lot of guys that were real open in that first half — especially against Miami’s zone.
getting another tough defensive assignment. He defended Jayson Tatum last night and is on Anthony Edwards to begin this game. – 8:16 PM Timberwolves with a little early schedule advantage tonight and Monday. Both their opponents, Miami and Atlanta, will have played the night before in other cities. – 7:59 PM Quick keys other than the usual Herro-Bam stuff that we already know about: Jaime Jaquez mid-post work Let Nikola Jovic operate in open floor Play to the young guys’ strengths – 7:57 PM Chase Hughes @ChaseHughesNBCS Corey Kispert is getting crispy early: 11 pts on 3-4 3PT in 10 min. He has done a nice job circling the perimeter to find open space on the wings.
– 7:51 PM Heat opening tonight with a lineup of Bam Adebayo, Tyler Herro, Kyle Lowry and... Nikola Jovic and Jaime Jaquez Jr. (Butler, Love, Martin, Richardson and Highsmith are out. ) – 7:31 PM Spoelstra said idle Kevin Love got banged up Friday in Boston, “There’s about three things that happened to K-Love yesterday. The last two hits kind of jarred his neck and his back.
Just monitoring. – 10:25 PM Wolves won the game with 21 to 4 run over six minutes in the 4th — with Gobert, Reid, Edwards, Alexander-Walker, Conley on the floor the whole time.

Reid: 25 and 8 Gobert: 14 and 14 Edwards: 19, 7a KAT: 12, 10r Conley: 14, 5a – 10:19 PM The way Rudy Gobert is moving in these first two games is night and day from this time last year.

Connected on one in the preseason, too. They hashed out that two-man game in Sioux Falls. – 8:40 PM I don’t think any team in the NBA will play a taller/longer lineup than the lineup the Wolves have in right now.
