Re: Game 64: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Los Angeles Clippers
A loss tonight would be expected and fine. Blowing the last 3 games sadly makes it devastating.
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.

Clear path foul? I'm lost.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.

I thing the Wolves gets more of those phantom clear paths than any team. Than again, we foul a lot more than other teams.

Best hope for tonight is SAS beat UTA. Just hope we don't embarrass ourselves in front of national TV. Getting tired of Chuck talking about the Wolves

Re: Game 64: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Los Angeles Clippers
We do have the dumbest players in the league, what is Naz doing foul Plumlee with .07 on the clock? If you can't score, at least don't give up 30 pts a quarter

Nice to see McLaughlin being a net positive on the court, it's been a long time since that has happened.

We foul way, way, way too much. We are an undisciplined team as I've ever seen one.
Hate to say it but that's coaching.

Re: Game 64: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Los Angeles Clippers
Love the Gobert post up. We should do that more even though we lost the ball a couple times trying to feed Gobert. That's going to open up opportunities for other

Re: Game 64: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Los Angeles Clippers
You can see Ant is pissed/bummed he can't get a contact call driving inside. It is totally unfair when other guys get that call all day. I'd go to the league and bitch every game.

He is pressing too much. Still has some of the same old bad habits. The steal by Morris, you can see that a mile away. He was totally unaware there is a player behind him and walks the ball up slowly. He had a easy lob to Gobert but decided to shoot and missed instead, and fail to box out Westbrook on a rebound. He is giving a lot of efforts on D. Another player that needs to play smarter instead of harder.

Re: Game 64: Minnesota Timberwolves @ Los Angeles Clippers
I think Ant needs to look to drive and kick a lot more. Teams are clogging up the paint and the refs still aren't giving him any calls. Collapsing the defense and passing the ball would create a ton of open looks.

Yes!! The whole team needs to drive and kick more. How about 2 or 3 passes, drive, kick and shoot the wide open 3. The coach said he wants that too but we continue not to see much of it.

At this point I'd take assists and a few turnovers over all the empty drives Ant is currently having.
