We don't have the supposed GOAT.

But we have Gobert - GOAT on defense


Bruh. Use your green font so I don't break something.

I just watched the second half this morning.

Hilarious that JimPete used that same Godfather quote that I did!

And I expected to see a horrible Towns based on the comments in this thread. He was 22-14-5. Happy to see Ant moving so fast as well!

At this point I think lots of wolves fans have zero tolerance for Towns mistakes/histrionics. It has worn on the fans for the last two seasons and they are at a breaking point. He'd have to really show something for an extended period of time to get those people to feel good about him again.

I, personally, have ptsd every time KAT has the ball.
I have no idea if it’s a stat or not, but trauma can make you feel things that may not actually be quite as dramatic as they are. It feels like KAT has to be among the league leaders in touches to TO ratio. Whether that be a bad pass or an offensive foul.

I could be way off on this feeling, but to have experienced so much over so long. The trauma is real.

This is why I speak of how it was so much more enjoyable to watch games with him out. It’s not that I wish bad on KAT, it that I don’t have to feel that trauma.

I want him traded and I want him to succeed and be great. In turn, I want that trade to make things better for the wolves.

Also, if I, just watching the games have this tension from just hoping it doesn’t go badly, how do the players feel? How does the coach feel?

What do you expect in Brooklyn besides Godfathers and pizza?

Towns had a fairly good game. Still a little mess up on defense, especially when Gobert is in there and try to figure out who supposed to cover on the perimeter. I think he is much better with the refs. Things are looking up. It will work with Gobert.
