This one seems like it's over. Was a great game for 3 quarters but we blew it in the 4th. Sad.

Good job Saunders, you managed to tank another game. I'm seriously beginning to wonder if it's intentional.

Also, Beasley is not a guy to create offense. He’s very limited. The one skill set he has, the jumper, is very valuable but he should not be creating offense for himself or others. Put Edwards out there with this second unit things might be smoother.


McDaniels should play every minute with Rubio. I think they havent shared a single second today

We lost all momentum when he kept the starters in way to long and went down by 9. You could see the Lakers taking over but Saunders does nothing. If Lebron is out there, we should be matching up with him.

Ryan Saunders lost this game for the Wolves tonight. Waited way too long to put the starters in and mix and match players. He waited till the 6 min mark to bring in the starters after Lakers went on a huge run.

officiating was horrible as always. not even saunder's rotations could overcome that, but those rotations/substitutions definitely didn't help at all

I've said since he was traded that Beas is great as a JJ Redick type player, but its painful when he puts it on the floor

He plays within himself most of the time at least

Vando has missed two or three layups tonight. This is why I need a vet PF, again we got a lot of young talent but these guys aren't ready to win big games. We need veterans who can bring consistency and toughness. We will be an up and down team as long as we are the youngest in the NBA.

Vanderbilt with multiple crushing misses right at the rim tonight. How do you miss shots from literally six inches?

I agree with this. Towns needs a PF like Vando. Does a lot of dirty work, rebounding, toughness, and D. But you can’t win with a player as limited as Vando on the offensive end.
