Our defense is hot garbage and as long as it is we will never be a relevant team.

I would challenge your use of the term hot garbage to describe our defense, simply because we are literally not playing any. Hot garbage would be a serious step up. Ant, Layman, Culver, even MCD all overplaying one side and allowing uncontested drives to the rim for open layups or dunks. No box out at all (apparently we are the worst team in the league at boxing out and Edwards has only boxed out 5 times in 51 games,) leading to easy offensive rebounds. This team is a joke. Without Beasley and Nowell to keep the scoring going we have just completely quit on the game.

We try there have been games where we have 8-10 minutes of amazing defense. Its just effort. And the Wolves don't give it their all.

It's hard to watch Ricky playing so poorly.


He is one of the most frustrating players, and least favorite players I can think of. That may be an reach, but I hate watching him play. Trash can.

Karl looks so alone on P&R defense, no side help at all. We need everyone to play D or P&R will expose us every play.

Its like... Dude he had the best +/- on the team, every team he's ever been a part of has had their young shooting guards rave about how his ability to facilitate an offense and unlock their offense is key.

But yeah he sucks. His shooting seems like a problem tonight because they can't get a stop. He hasn't changed as a player probably never will but he's not the problem tonight. Wide open shots we consistently miss are.

Like Reid playing above Rim. Nobody else will, not even Edwards.

I just realized that the team got their first covid shot yesterday.

I'm 30 and when i got my first dose, it made me feel real sluggish for the next 2 days..not to mention my arm was sore.

These dudes are in their early 20s and are probably running off adrenaline, but I think they might be feeling those same side effects
