It just amazes me how all these Rocket 19 year olds complain to the ref about being fouled every drive.

Those fourth quarter turnovers were some of the dumbest I’ve seen this season.

DLo was scoring, but I wonder if Finch considered bringing in McLaughlin to just settle things down?

Shouldn't have ended as a 7 point game but a W is a W so I'll put the 4Q out of my mind and look forward to closing the season out with 3 home games.

Well that was uglier than it needed to be. Sucks for anyone who had MN at -13.5

Refs were really screwing the Rockets with some calls down the stretch.

It was a win but the 4th qtr disaster tarnished it. Sloppy, over confident, lazy play is so Wolves like at times. I hate to say it but we have to grow up as a team. Towns and Dlo have teenage mentalities.

Coach should have outlawed any 3 pt shot late except for clock under 5 seconds.

I'm pissed. We won but I hate winning ugly. My earlier post said I won;t feel good unless we;re up by 12 with one minute to go. It was still bad.

Win is a win but yes… no reason you can’t run an offense to burn time, work the block or clock spots, and hit some free-throws.

Well, yeah... That turned ugly really quick.

Thought for sure being 20+ up we'd walk it in, but a lot of weird late game decisions there.

Winners are grinners so I'm smiling, but happy to forget that 4th
