It's that super sad time of the year again when the wolves fanbase can't scrape together 3 grand for an auction. I have seen Twitch streams pull in tens of thousands in hours lol.

Haven’t seen anything special from them.

We’re just playing bad…
Bad shot selection, bad passing (and non-passing), bad defense.

Kyle Anderson is the true MVP of our team.

Wolves have been a step slow on defense the whole quarter resulting in a ton of easy baskets for the Nuggets. Add in a bunch of idiotic turnovers and it's not been a good start.

Nowell in less than a minute has a turnover, a missed shot, and let a guy get behind him for a dunk.

Jaylen Nowell fumbled the ball, whiffed a wide open layup, and then blew two defensive assignments.

I can't keep watching him.

No offense AND no defense.

Not a good combo

Wolves look different too, too much hero sh*t and not playing the game. JMac missed Gobert on a easy two, Ant two bad plays in a roll, follow by a Dlo turn over, then a Nowell bad D effort. We could turn the lights off after the first qtr.
