The most absurd part of first half: Nuggets had a coach march all way on court and go nose to nose with ref, a starting player throw a heat pack on court and they have 0 technical fouls.

"There's not 100 players better than me,'' Andrew Wiggins said. Properly enraged by the ESPN ratings slight, he then missed 14 of 18 shots, took 2 free throws, missing them both, grabbed 2 rebounds and committed 3 turnovers in 28 minutes against the Bucks.

QB who hadn’t played since 9-30 and had thrown 23 passes all year comes in cold, on 4th and 11, and goes 3 for 3 for 85 yards and a touchdown that beats you deep when the only thing that can beat you is a touchdown. That’s not 0-1 in the Illinois season. That’s abominable.

Maddening part for Wolves: Ant, KAT are combined 21-for-69 from floor in two games (including horrendous 9-for-33 tonight) and Wolves lose twice by a combined 4 points. Translation: mere shooting competence from even 1 of 2 stars means at least a split if not 2-0 instead of 0-2.
