logjam building again. Dlo back soon and they are going to have to start DNPing a bunch again. Bye Jmac. Nowell will go too if he can't find his 3pt shot again soon. Wonder who else.

Culver for sure...Nowell for me is still promising despite his streaky 3 pt shooting (still is shooting 36% from 3 despite being inconstent).

KAT really needs to stop chasing assists. Its obvious and he hesitates on open good opportunities. As i said in the other game thread...trying to be poor mans Jokic. Good idea (as discussed in the "what would be a good system for this roster?" thread) whenever they dont have a point guard on the court. As it is KAT turning down shots isnt going to work when Ricky is his receiver.

Might want to put Layman in the game for a bit. Rest of these players are negs right now.

Davis deserves some play. It's a blowout loss man. Let him out for some air. Probably would be a breath of fresh air.

Also, towns is 4/5 and ant is 4/10. Karl needs more shots. Beasley rusty today.

KAT deserves lot of blame for him having just 5 shot attempts..the dude is just deferring and hesitant to take some of the open looks he is getting from 3.


I couldn’t watch anymore but that makes sense. He needs to step up. It reminds me of the game after the all star break when he said he is going to be more aggressive, which he came out shooting. He know that he needs to do so, so why is he sitting here watching/deferring to this trash team.

Yeah...it's not like he is playing alongside team full of offensive stars...he is hesitating to take an open 3 and instead passing it up to setup a spot-up shot attempt from Rubio, Ant which is just stupid.

Can we forfeit the next week of games and just do another training camp?

I love the Wolves but Anthony Edwards does not deserve to be the Rookie of the Year. His defense is the worst I have seen in a long time.

agree...it's just frustrating to see when he is passing up open looks for a contested jumper from other teammates. He is doing it more often in recent weeks...idk whether it's new game plan or just KAT trying to imitate Jokic all of a sudden

Unless something changes, no chance. It’ll go to Halliburton or LaMelo. I’m not sure I’d put Edwards on the rookie first team with his play.

he definitely shouldn't be anywhere close to winning ROTY..his efficiency has been awful and his defense has been bad, mainly his team defense.

He definitely doesn't. Yet, he's #1 in the rookie rankings on nba.com

Hope it goes to Haliburton so Ant realizes what he's doing isn't winning bball

Should.
But I also want to see this mess playout with everyone healthy and logjammed to the nuts, Rosas style. Either they figure something out or it blows up.

Maybe Taylor can get a sale done in the offseason and the new owners can punt Rosas back into the gleague.

Porter Jr is a tough cookie. Took a quick Beas elbow to the nose and kept playing. Nothing smarts more then a straight on nose tap to make your eyes water.

What Haliurton has been able to show even playing next to Fox and Heid has been impressive. Game IQ, versatility, efficiency.

On Thursday vs Warriors
Fox, 22 shots, 73% FG 43% 3FG, 44 pts
Hal, 11 shots, 64% FG, 86% 3FG, 21 pts
Heid, 11 shots, 55% FG, 44% 3FG, 16 pts

Awful game tonight but really starting to reliaze that as much as I've loved Jim Peterson its time for a new color guy on the broadcast.I get the team sucks and has sucked for like 15 years but becoming way to negative and his stories wonder way to much away from the game.Think they should give the spot to Kevin Lynch,Marney Gellner or maybe even Rebecca Brunson.Time for new blood.
