that has been relatively obvious all season. there have just been a lot of different excuses along the way. give them time to gel, wait for them to make a trade, mitch to come back etc.

bottom line is the players and coach aren't good enough. they're a fun team with a 2nd round ceiling. ECF if they get lucky and things fall their way.

Ya well all the starters are 40+ right now on a B2B so there's that for you to take in and interpret anyway you would like.


No excuses.

Sick and tired of them. I don’t even want to hear what Thibs or any of the players have to say after this one. It’s all a complete joke.

It’s like an apologetic spouse apologizing for **** up. You become numb to it. I have tuned Thibs and their voices out.

It's so fitting that Black Thibs and White Doc were an actual coaching tandem.

I've seen two clutch defensively plays from Towns in overtime. I'm sure he feels pressure after screwing up with that inbounds play in regulation.
