way better energy, but still some stupid mistakes

three guards on the floor and none of them matchup with Brunson so Prince has to, Brunson just blows by him for a layup

We might go down as 1 of the worst super teams assembled. If u consider dlo a star. Worst than Lakers big 4 with Dwight, Pau gasol, kobe and Nash. That team was a disappointment.

D'Lo sucks so much, Austin Rivers is even a better player to play over him :-?

Always has to be pain and suffering.

We make a blockbuster trade, you think, we are going to be good from day one and have a fun season, in reality, we come out looking horrible.

Cavs make a big trade, they look like title contenders.

The guys we traded away are on the best team in the west right now and having a blast.

The West is again wide up early, lots of the top teams are struggling, but here we are putzing around getting destroyed by the Knicks and blowing yet another opportunity.

Life a wolves fan. Feels like destiny.

Finch says too many guys "looking for what's in it for them out there." There is "too much daylight in between" on defense. I just heard we were minus 25pts on turnovers. Could that be right?

That's sad

Dang is this team done? It's early but there are ZERO redeeming factors right now. Deeply troubling. Hopefully the issue is D Lo and everyone but KAT wanting him gone.
This was one of the more disgraceful performances I've seen. Might need to tune them out for a while

A lot of miscalculations heading into the season: Russell being a fit with Gobert, McDaniels developing into a 2 way force, Ant becoming an all-nba player.

Ant needs to learn to play POA defense. He didn’t have to last year that often, and he is failing to this year. Brunson unbalanced the defense time and time again. Dlo sucks at it, JMAC is too small for it, Nowell isn’t a defensive player, but at least he tries hard. POA defense is badly needed. Maybe Ant figures it out. Maybe we assign Anderson to starting PG and trade for another PF, I don’t know.

BTW, I was right about JMAC. He might be a good passer, and pace player. But, his lack of shooting, defense, and rebounding is killing us. He tries hard and plays smart, but doesn’t hit his wide open shots. He is a 3rd string with a slumping 1st string and no second string. We need a legit PG, or better yet move Dlo and Naz and get 2.

Hot garbage. We are not just losing, we are getting blown out by mediocre teams.
Dysfunctional offense, no ball pressure, terrible defense. Awful chemistry.
Russell needs to sit out. Ant needs to play within the offense but we need to do a better job getting him the ball off movement instead of trying to create in ISO.

Just as a point of contention, P Bev is not on the number one team in the west. He is on the worst team in the west. Let's not make it any worse than it is.
