They hit shoot, we don't. The difference is there. Plus the usual Tony Brother show who make sure we got enough fouls to limit our defense efficiency. Hopefully we hit shoot in second half and make a run. Go Wolves!

You know it's bad when Jmac is out there.

This is where I'm at as well. No effort, no desire. Play like that, deserve to lose.

If McLauhgin can't hit wide open corner 3s he has no business being in the game.

Me too. It’s not the refs. We’ve missed shots we should make. But the real problem is energy. We have none.

Naz having a nightmare night after receiving 6th man of the year award. Stuff like that happens. Maybe he has a big 2nd half. Murray has been unbelievable!

Murray is the guy I pleaded we take in the draft and he was there for us so what do we do take Kris Dunn. Who is he?

We are still in this. Lots of game left.

Better yet why is he **** taking back to back threes?


I don’t mind the shots. He’s open and had been shooting it well when in. Just been too long since being in live action.

Agreed. Absolutely nothing wrong with J Mc taking those.

Kyle Anderson in less than 7 minutes: 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, 0-1 FG, -12

Dude has been garbage on both ends, it is a crime that he is in the game instead of someone like Monte Morris.

He's a scrub. He has no business missing back to back shots. Denver wants him taking those.

We need to win the 2nd half by 15 points or more. One step at a time. Win the 3rd by 8.

Wrong. He just happened to miss those. He could have made both. If Denver wants him taking open 3s we make them pay.

Energy not there. Murray is getting charged by the boos and that’s it. Point Kyle and no Jokic minutes destroyed us

Minnesota’s bigs aren’t in foul trouble, they are having him play mostly Small-Forward minutes, where is worse than worthless. Minnesota could have survived going a bit smaller, in my opinion.

The way you guys turn on and hate on our players as soon as there is a little adversity is a shame.

The keys to the second half are to find some energy on defense and to make open shots.

I never liked McLaughlin.
