Last years team was small and undisciplined but at least they were fun to watch and could fly around on both ends. These guys look like they are laboring through every possession with no idea of what to do. I'm curious of what Connelly was thinking this group would look like when he made the Rudy deal.

Because flying charter flights in nice seats with lots of leg room is so tough. Oh the horror.


It’s just bad coaching and something tells me there’s some internal strife about the direction of the team (KAT vs Ant) and maybe guys losing faith in Finch’s system..

This is dreadful. There's no reason to watch this.

Embarrassing! Offence is non existent and they are picking us apart.

It's over already. Kat is just so mentally weak, one of the worst I've seen from a professional athlete

He’s like Ben Simmons with shooting ability.

I was thinking we’d be slow, but we could punish with size. I was half right.

I think Finch is going to have to do something to change the momentum. I'd give Minott some run and go small.

I don't understand how we can't get KAT some looks. Why can't this team put him in a position to get some buckets? Its like Denver has everything totally locked down and he's getting no good looks. That's a red flag.

This is a badly coached team that is too wildly inconsistent and that **** does not get it done in the playoffs.

And now another 6 minute offensive power outage. This team has no way to manufacture points when they are well-scouted.

Lol. They just walk to the paint, and kick it for a 3. Like it’s NOTHING.

Wolves just can't buy a basket. Let all go play Call of Duty. That is more fun. Wolves are just shell shock
