There’s always an unnecessary roadblock for the wolves. Nothing truly falls in their favor fully. Lose Curry so it’s only fitting you lose Ant too.

Exciting series turned into doo doo that fast.

We are good but not great. Warriors still have life. How do we let Jackson and Davis slow us down. Those guys haven't played any meaningful time all season.

You aren’t getting Julius Randle, Donte DiVincenzo, and a First Round Draft Pick for Rudy Gobert.

Other issue is that Minnesota’s defense and rebounding craters without Rudy Gobert, and his contract is far more sustainable than KAT’s.

To be fair, Rudy stopped a lot of basket today. He was very good on defense. I watched NYK a lot too and at times it's like Moses parting the Red sea - wide open down the middle.

We need ANT less than they need Curry.

We just need to play more focused. Dial it in..

Spare me the excuses. We lost the trade and any smart basketball guy knows it. They are laughing at us in NY.

Textbook defense by Rudy as Butler tried to take him off the dribble.

No, they are not actually.

Kat has played very inconsistently, and is not worth his contract.

Gobert may be the worst offensive player in the history of the NBA. Unwatchable.

He’s particularly bad today. Need to get him off the floor.

Not a single brain cell shared between McDaniels Randle and Gobert over the last 10 minutes of this game.

This team is an absolute embarrassment.

That's always the question with Rudy. We need him in defense at rebounding but when he is so bad on offense, we play at this part of the field 4 against 5 and offense struggle.

I mean he takes Julius Randle out of the game for being an absolute idiot and the next guy in says hold my beer I can be worse.
