It depends what you're asking. I could write a 4 page paper on what is wrong.

Yeah, but in your mind, only Wiggins and Towns are talented enough, and they've been among the worst this game. So trade the two of them too?
I judge them what they've done so far this season, not just 1 or 2 games.
Yeah, but one can argue that if anybody else on the roster was given the shots that KAT and Wiggins were given, we would have been in the lead this game. Bazz and Rubio are actually really good this game, I'm very confident that they're worth keeping.

Alright I'm about to go see some UFC. I will just say what I have been saying, we will have plenty of losses like this, we will get our asses kicked, its the price you pay for being a young rebuilding team. Its a process.

Rubio is mad, lol. If you don't stick to the plan, you will be dealt.

That loss hurts a lot but that's growing pains. It is a result of panicking, bad night from your 2 prospects, coaching who did not react and a Milwaukee team that exposed your weaknesses. Future is still brighter than almost any team in the league.

Re: Bucks @ Wolves, 7:00 CST
It's just so demoralizing... I mean, I can deal with a lot of losses, but really, how many players have progressed from last season? As it stands now, looking at the last 10-15 games... Rubio has progressed a bit and then... Ugh...
Worst thing is that when we were 8-8 I felt like we had gotten less wins than we should have. I feels like the players have just given up.
It might help us in the future that we get ANOTHER high pick, but it's **** embarrassing at this point. The West is so open at the 8th spot and we should have a lot of talent in our team, but we just can't do anything. Look at who we have lost to since we were 8-8 as well. Denver*2, Portland, Phoenix, Knicks, Orlando, Pistons, Bucks... We've had an easy schedule, but we still suck.
I have only watched the Wolves since 2011 and I am already sick of this ****. I wonder how the rest of you must feel, who have seen terrible teams for 12 straight years.

Rubio is mad with the loss, he shouldn't be because this year and the next two years are development years. If he is not happy with the direction of the team, then too bad.

Re: Bucks @ Wolves, 7:00 CST
Its a bit comical to see all the expert fans though continue to try and find the problem. First it was Martin is destroying the team chemistry, he gets removed we still suck. Then its Lavine playing PG, he goes to SG and we still suck. A part of me hopes Smitch does get replaced mid season just so we can see the reactions when we still dont make the playoffs.
As some people have said before the problems we are have are more than some easy fix. Also when you rely on this many young players you are going to get burned. Period. We have not had enough time to mature at all and its obvious on the court.

This makes no sense.

That was a good watch. I actually think he was making a lot of sense there. Those are some of the little things that separate young players from vets too. All of those add up to leave glaring holes.
