KAT has to be better with the fouls/refs. Can't afford to sit out huge chanks of games because he is getting flustered and can't be missing rebounds, assignments because he's screaming about a call. Coaching staff/teammates need to get on him about that.

Wolves probably up more if DLo wasn’t playing.

Was it the poor defense, 2-10 from the field, or the seven turnovers that gave you that idea? :lol:

It's weird, DLO has had 3-4 passes that have been around 10ft away from the guy he was trying to get the ball to. I'm not sure if he's expecting guys to be in different spots or if he is just completely out of sync.

It’s been like 7 seasons of the same crying at the refs like a baby, doubt he will ever change.

No more DLo the rest of the night please.

He can try again in a few days.

KAT needs to show better leadership, don't want the young ones to start thinking that whining at the refs instead of hustling back on D is acceptable.

nice AND1 by KAT and its always good to get him the ball, but he's trying to post and bulldoze Val, when VAL has no chance to play with him in space

thats trying to get back at a player instead of playing your own game

The Jumpman logo on our jerseys is really cool looking.

Big fail from Towns tonight. Maybe Beverly can talk some sense into him. Wolves still have the talent to get this W, got to play better.

Luckily Ant doesn’t do it and he has good reason too, he never gets star calls.

Honestly, Karl-Anthony Towns needs to grow the **** up. He gets frustrated by non-calls and ends up making a stupid play immediately after. Dude hurts Minnesota with his lack of composure. It really is not acceptable.
