That's right.  Payton showing people what he can do!

I still cannot believe what we are witnessing

Especially since KAT has committed 17 fouls and traveled 12 times.

Been a pleasure to watch this team over the past couple of months.

We look a little sloppy.  I wonder if the time off (since Wed.) is having an effect.  Need to shake that off and come out with a good second period.  The Wolves are not going to make this easy.

Yeah, just a little rusty in the first period.  I continue to be surprised by how well this team is playing.  That was a tremendous quarter against a good team.

Just excellent ball on both ends, everybody contributing.

And all this without Al

Well I'm bummed that I missed the first half.   I can see from the score and some comments that it's more of the same dominance.   If anyone wants to provide specifics, I'd love to read some good recap.   Looks like no Al, no problem.

KAT is really the only guy who can generate any offense for them.  Nowell has hit a few shots but their other guys have been irrelevant.

Offensively there's no single thing to point to.  Very good teamwide effort.  A few too many turnovers in the first quarter but we fixed it in the second.  Got three fouls on KAT and I thought that affected his ability to defend the paint; we started getting a lot of layups and paint points after that.

Also killing them on the glass.  Just a really, really solid half of basketball.

I’m  struggling to believe what’s been happening.

TP for you!!

No need to struggle just enjoy the rest of the game.

That was a designed play so I'm not mad at Smart for that TO.  But Tatum was wide open at the top.

Sorry Scal but Tatum is not 6'-10".

But he is really good.
