I am all for celebrating doing something great, but KAT should have been given a tech for that sorry display. It’s bad enough he got away with a pretty egregious foul, but to mock the crowd about it, too much.

We started rushing our shots, not taking care of the ball, and playing Harry Potter style defense, (protect yourself by being invisible to the general public.)

Hope Nowell is okay. I also hope Ant doesn’t wake up with a very swollen ankle.

It's late in the season and games matter. It would be nice to see a little maturity out of the guys. If not now, when?We can be so good offensively but then go bad on both ends. I think they outplayed us 33 to 15 to end it.

Not gonna lie Houston got totally hosed by the refs at the end there, but I'm sure they don't mind some more lotto balls.

Dave Benz said it in the first quarter, “This is gonna be one of those games where the Wolves give up 130 and win.” I saw this one with my dad and a few minutes later he said “With the two teams playing such poor defense I might as well be watching the all star game.” Both are true, and both explain the rookies going off.
