Welp... we went up 20. We are doomed.

Yea its so bad. Good news for Towns' future is I truly believe that if he gets traded his new coach/team will address this and I believe he will earnestly make the change. I think the new start will be a good motivator for him to do so. Just getting rid of that refs crying and laying around will up his game like 15 percent. No joke. It will be hugely beneficial.


Ant needs help with that too. there's no reason that a change shouldn't have happened here yet. I know Jimmy and Thibs was telling him to cut it out for sure.


it’s just so disappointing with Kat, he is in his prime now and no way a non strict coach like Finch will change him.

was hoping Jaden would be able to up his isolation game, he looked better late in season before injury
but still pretty awkward

I am 100 percent going to place a bet on Denver to come back and win this game now. Either way, I win. I call in, Mental Wolfsurance.

Wolves by 19 at the half. Denver has us right where they want us.

This should be one interesting 3rd qtr. You just know Denver is coming out with fire.

I won't be comfortable until the final buzzer sounds. Even then I need to see that next day referee review to make sure the refs didn't retroactively reverse a ton of calls and the Wolves wound up losing the game anyway after the fact.

I’m so worried about this big lead, why is this normal for us Wolves fans.

get back in transition and play unselfish, Wolves will be in good shape.

as bad as some of the refs calls were, Wolves do have 2x the amount of FTs

Do you know if the same guys are going to play the second half? Or we going to get the super subs again like the last game? :-?

Wouldn't it be nice to just feel good about a game? I feel like every game there some crap I have to be anxious about.

Will we blow a lead?

Will KAT do something really stupid?

Will our bigs look terrible together?

Will our offense look like mess?

I just want to watch ball and feel good about my team playing well.

Small sample size but encouraging: use Gobert as the help guy works really well, Ant is finding Gobert, Towns is posting up, we still need to figure out how to unleash Milton.

Nuggets are a different team when Murray isn't doing his thing. Jokic is their guy but Murray is integral. Without him they are a shell.

Towns trails the play, Jamal Murray gets a wide-open three. Hate to see it.

Finch needs to create some plays that get us easier offense. We struggle too much to score.
