I love Rob’s tenacity defensively, he definitely can become good at D.

TJ is clearly the best player on the floor but he’s not getting enough looks.

What did they see in this guy? Wolves sl team would be so much better with any decent center.

I keep hoping that Dillingham is going to get going, but he just keeps missing makeable shots.

I think win or lose C Hines needs to take these guys to a local rec center and make them run layup lines until they learn how to do a ******** layup.

Ugly. No spacing for either team. Our guys don’t want to shoot. I don’t know wtf Nix is doing. I know he’s has a good plus/minus but it’s like he decided he had to show something to keep his two-way.

I can’t wait until Dilly builds up some muscle. He’s really struggling to finish right now.

I agree we need to let TSJ a little more. Actions with Dilly, TSJ, and Miller. Miller is such an awful screen setter though.

They will fall eventually, I like that he is showing he can run a team, take care of the ball and shown real promise on D.

Had you told me a week ago that Rob's shot would be broke but he'd show real promise as a playmaker, passer and floor general as well as putting in his best on D I'd take it every time. Not at all worried about Rob Dillingham scoring going forward.

Minott and Miller are legit pissing me off this sl.


Hey, Miller is having a decent night so far. 15 pts. 10 boards.

Just when I was celebrating Minott hitting a layup, Miller missed one. SMFH.

These refs ought to be on a federal watch list for this performance.

The team is 2-16 on 3s, maybe it's time to stop taking (and missing) them every time down the floor.

I’m not sure if we have an NBA player on our team outside TSJ and Dilly. Miller doesn’t look athletic enough to be an NBA big unless he can consistently hit the 3, which he cannot. Minott. Ugh. Maybe in five years. Not now. Nix, Clark, I just don’t see it for them. No NBA-level traits.

Minott has been a disaster, why has TJ taken only 2 shots? Why isn’t he getting involved, he should lead this team in shots every damn game. not Minott and Nix.

You think Dilly looks good tonight?
