Why is it when I think this team cannot get any worse, it manages to do so...

Finch: WTH have I done.

I didn't watch.

Lamelos last game triggered me. It has hit a nerve with me that we passed on this guy for Ant to the point where my trust in Rosas has vanished.

The Culver move and the assembly of unmotivated and overpaid punks infuriates me.

Gerss don't piss on our backs and tell us it's raining...

I think this is the sequence that finally broke me.

Everyone stands around. Layman passes right back into it. Edwards playing hot potato. Rubio...Cross court to Reid man! Forget that junk.

How do you make small ball worse, you don’t move without the ball and have non shooters in the corners.

Flint tropics basketball. A Jackie Moon classic

[brutalitops]

That was a game played by a broken team which needs a break.

Jesus.

[Merc_Porto]

I didn't watch either...
After all the talk about Edwards he goes for 1-10 from 3PT.

The worst thing about any basketball player is the lack of IQ and by stats, previous games and all season honestly. It looks like we found one really dumb. And coaching staff doesn't help either.

Geez

Ok i am done until draft lottery. It's really the most frustrating season I can remember.

Understandable... The one common for the past 15 years... Glen TAYLOR. He should be spoken about more. He needs to sell the team OR relinquish his ownership... i thought he had put a stop to his silly old school meddling with things.. its apparent he told Rosas that hiring Saunders was a non negotiable and that has set us back big time.. again...

This sequence to me explains what's going on:

We come out strong, good offense, good defense. That good ball movement leads to an open 3 for Edwards. He nails it. 21-10 Timberwolves. For a second there you might think: "wait a moment, is this the game we play solid all around and win?"

Not so fast, Edwards just made a 3, so at that moment he decides to "take over". Next play, he runs a pick 'n roll with Towns: turnover. Next play, he takes a contested pullup 3 where nobody else gets to touch the ball (Towns is by his side at the top of the key). Hornets score again and again, momentum gone, tied game just a couple of minutes later.

Edwards made that first open 3 but would go on to miss the next 9 attempts.

Hope we don't need to wait until after the All-Star and get to see some changes tonight.

I mean... Wow.

Loved the 'everybody gets to handle the ball and turn it over' approach. And nice to see Ant shoot 8/23 from the floor and 1/10 from 3 and play non-existent defense yet again while the HC watches on the sidelines.

What else can you say at this point...

We're f****d.

Vando with the hands of stone again.

And he has 1 turnover in the box score. It's so unfair that if you throw a guy a perfect pass and he Gobert's it you get charged with a turnover.

LOL at the 'Goberts it'. I've been thinking Vanderbilt's hands are even worse than Gobert's since the season started. I don't think I've seen a guy with worse hands ever. Poor guy's got the hand-eye coordination of a toddler (but he can run and jump so he'll make a few millions in his career, so maybe I shouldn't feel that bad for him).

Thats almost literally what i predicted, i thought worst thing for the wolves is when he makes an early one. I dont know why it is so hard to intercept, and bench him. Every other team does it. To go to an extreme, do you believe prime Pop would stand on the sideline and watch this happen again and again?

[LesGrossman]

Worst thing is i'm sure that once a few days have passed, we'll read about how Rickys lack of shooting ability is the main issue here, and if only we had a guard who has "dribble penetration" and can shoot from the logo, that'd be a guaranteed finals ticket. Reading through that GB thread i'm not sure wether to cry or laugh.

[Dewey]

This culture has one chance ... playing time is earned through defense ... no excuse an NBA Player cannot defend a pick n roll, close out, help & recover, etc... Finch now has His one chance to address player accountability, so we’ll see if he can walk the walk.

Yeah, I can already see that stupid discussion coming up again.

Is Jeff Teague available?

Story of the season. Letting the kids run the household. Started the season with Edwards and Culver both doing so. People wonder why Dlo/Rubio were struggling to gain control of this. What I want to know now is how did Rubio produce what he did last night in spite of it?

The team now has one of those, "I'll have to watch the tape later" guys at the helm. We'll see if he can at least be prepared for the next one.
