    Default Nobody is talking about Towns

    26/12.1/3.6 on 65.5 TS% with a 29.3 PER. He's hitting almost four threes a game on 44.3% Also 1.5 blocks and 1.3 steals.

    That's better than Wiggins across the board (except same assists).

    But both are only 24, so if they're both starting to hit their stride, then reason to be excited again as a Wolves fan.

    Gobert just shut him down.

    When Minnesota is playing defense and winning it will be time to talk about him and Wiggins

    Nah, we talked about Westbrook for three years because he put up monster stats.

    I didn't. Westbrook's teams were in the playoffs not among the worst in the league though. Towns is Demarcus Cousins without the baggage until he shows he can carry a team and play both ends of the court as far as I'm concerned. I like his game but winning has to be part of the equation for me

    and he is good near the rim as long as he's not playing Gobert. Has to step it up defensively still though!

    The Wolves shot 30 something % against Gobert that night. He had the flurry of 3's that won the game at the end but it should have never came down to that.

    Dude is arguably turning into the best 3 point shooter in the NBA, not even along big men but anyone. He's also taking threes in any situation from anywhere. 30 footers, step back three's... Pretty much every type of 3 point shot you can imagine he hayd been hitting.

    And with the percentage he is shooting he absolutely deserves the green light to keep shooting. His 3 point shooting is such a big reason why Wiggins is playing a lot better this year (so far)

    If you watched the highlights the vast majority of his points came on Gobert.

    If you're going to bash him you at least need to acknowledge when he dominates.

    I said I liked his game. Not exactly bashing. He's got to prove he can play both ends of the court and carry his team to wins

    It's probably because he has one of the ugliest games in the league. He also come across kind of bitch like.

    And I know he's young but He also hasn't done shit in the playoffs yet. The only appearance he had he wasnt very good so he still has alot to prove. Putting up stats in this era in The regular season dosnt really mean anything.

    He got destroyed by Clint Capela in the playoffs. Nothing he does matters to me until he can redeem himself in the postseason.
