I have hopes. Im just excited to see that first lob pass from Melo to Ant while he posterizes someone lol Edit is spelling cause auto correct doesn't help me like it used to :(

I cant wait for LaMelo's pick and roll with Rudy and and it becomes the hardest thing to defend in the league

That first lob connection gonna hit like crack, I can already see Ant loading up for liftoff in that UHC jersey. 15 seems reachable if Randle and Gobert keep eating off his dishes too

I don’t expect Randle to get even a single bucket from a LaMelo assist.

1,000,000,000%

So many good spot up shooters on this team. He's going to take so much pressure off of Ant teams will have to restructure how they approach defending him.

Either a career high assist or scoring statline for Lamelo

As long as I see Lamelo lob on Mcdaniels and the goofy ass lamelo and ANT cheesing him then Mcdaniels trying to stop from smile will be my highlight of the year.

u/Watzp0ppin 2d ago

Yes, and I think he’ll lead the league in assists per game. This will be the most talented team he’s had around him

u/Agitated_Mechanic984 2d ago

The fact that this is a realistic question for a wolves player not named Rubio that can shoot (even if its high volume).....is just amazing. The fact that we have him and our second best player in franchise history😳

Absolutely. A pass first 6’7” PG is exactly what this team has needed. I’m a lifelong MN fan through and through, so fettered expectations is my spot, but this team makes me think we got a shot at a parade (or will miss the playoffs entirely, there is no in between).

u/Any-Significance4795 2d ago

So with that logic we are winning the chip

u/spacespacespc 1d ago

Yes. I've been saying this for months. Assuming relative team health we are Finals bound this year. I think we win but I'm also a Journey > Destination kind of person so my plan is to watch every game and enjoy this season no matter what happens.

Lamelo making Rudy scary on offense is the number one thing I’m looking forward to.

u/bendall1331 Rudy Gobert 1d ago

I have a dream that LeMelo throws a dime to Rudy in the corner so good that Rudy hits a three. And then like a week later they do it again.

u/umami_edamame Jaylen Clark 1d ago

I now also have that dream. Thanks

u/bandogardens 1d ago

dont care about individual stats i just want a 50 win team with homecourt

u/Dakaraim Ayo Dosunmu 2d ago

That feels crazy low but he doesn't get minutes so I guess.  

I predict yes he'll break it in the playoffs

u/Any-Significance4795 2d ago

how much did you think it was before or how much do you think he will beat it with?

u/WorryNot_634 2d ago

Ant with another color way

u/muzzy4 1d ago

Dude is gonna drop a 20 dime game for sure

u/xAgnosticBluntx Bring Ya Ass 2d ago

Undoubtedly

u/cee_jay12489 1d ago

Yes, and I think he'll lead the league in assists too

u/jaltringer Anthony Edwards 1d ago

Absolutely

u/fastmofo88 Timberwolves 1d ago

At least twice.

u/JgRoller6 1d ago
