The officiating has turned to **** just like that. The first half was so good. They must have had a call from the league offices. they need PHX to win.

The fix is in.

Eh, I think the reffing has been largely fine, tonight.

The watchability of this game has gone into the toilet in the 3rd quarter because the refs are calling absolutely every tiny thing.
I don't think I've ever seen so many illegal screen calls in a game at the professional level.
That offensive foul on Gobert was ridiculus. Half of the foul calls in this quarter for both teams should have been non calls.

Absolutely abused on the glass to close this quarter. No good.

All the foul calls destroyed all our momentum too when we went up 10.

Ugly ugly offense is killing us.

I get Naz Reid deserves minutes, but the Karl-Anthony Towns and Naz Reid lineup is losing Minnesota the game.

Trying to hamfist minutes for a player because of talent almost always goes poorly.

Fouls have returned to destroy us, CAn't make that many mistakes, that's suicide.

Wolves had 9 fouls called against them after the Suns timeout with Wolves up 10. Suns had 5, with 3 of them being offensive. Wolves also have 16 turnovers to 6 for the Suns. Can't win games like that, even if the refs are calling more than they were earlier.

We desperately need a 3rd offensively competent guard to go with Ant and Conley.

I really don't like the combo of Towns + Reid on the floor at the same time. The D look so bad. You can smell that Towns foul on Booker a mile away. I was yelling don't do it but of course he didn't listen :D

New rotation. Ant resting in the 3rd and starting the 4th.

I like J Mac but we do need an upgrade at the position

I hope Naz is okay.

Biyombo's hands may be as bad as Gobert's my word.
