And just like that - Tatum comes in and contributes.

Glad to see him stepping up tonight on a national tv game when we're down our second and third best player, particularly against the overrated - or at least overhyped - Ant.

We're back to scrambling and running them off the three point line, at least.

What a pass by JT! If they're going to start doubling, then don't force it and trust your teammates like that!

great pass by JT and great turn and finish by Queta

they are overplaying so much, there are wide open players, just be patient and hit them.

This is a big game for Queta in terms of development. If he wants to become a 5-10 minutes spot-big in the playoffs THIS season, games like tonight are great for him.

I think he can be a solid depth big even in the playoffs by next season, but idk about 2025.

There you go, Big Al! (And another great take and find by JT - twice to Big Al!)

These Knicks guys (Divencenzo and Randle, but more Randle) are annoying us tonight

No call on Edwards dragging Queta down the floor?

All after they started doubling him, too.

His step up in playmaking - smart/efficient playmaking at that - has been tremendous the last two years.

Honestly I don't think we're playing bad defense, in fact our defense has been excellent since the 1st. But MIN and their role players are hitting insane shots
