I don’t understand how you keep losing at home. You can’t keep this trend going

Just hall of fame coaching to blow your last timeout because you subbed in an inbounder that they had no reason to guard.

I'm not impressed with Dallas at all. I'm impressed with Luka but we played bad ball. Their stars stepped up our didn't.

We beat ourselves. Gotta get our heads out of our ***** and get back on track in game 2.

I think this is 100 percent on Ant

Tough to win when Ant, KAT, Mike, and NAW all have bad games. It's frustrating to waste really good nights from Jaden and Kyle in a very winnable game.

I blame the coach tonight. And that basket from KAT should have counted.

Conley keeps doing dumber and dumber plays the whole playoffs. Gotta get it together because he was a net negative player today and cost us the win. How can you not lob it over Luka **** doughncic

This loss was more infuriating than any of the Denver blowouts

I can understand Conley physically having issues trying to make it through the playoffs. But he also struggled mentally. Horrible decision after horrible decision. If he’s a non-factor we’ll have a short series.

Now game 2 is a must win. Lots of pressure on us. None on Dallas. Going to be tough. Got to figure out the Mavs pick and roll and how to attack their shot blockers.

Wasted a good Jaden game…can’t do that.

winforlose · Post #253 » by **winforlose** » Thu May 23, 2024 3:07 am

Outside of Jaden and Kyle no one had a good game. Karl was bad, Ant was awful, Naz was average at best, NAW was awful, Rudy was lazy and awful. We lost the battle on the glass (need to check the box score to see how badly,) we were afraid to attack the paint, and played dumb. Finch didn’t have them ready at all. We beat ourselves and Dallas just happened to lend a hand.

Welp, we got beat. Dallas had a great gameplan. We had to shoot like crazy to win that is not our game. We need to go back to the drawing board.

Almost had a triple-double. Guarded and got burned by kyrie all night hence he was gassed. I think he played ok. Conley on the other hand

First time we lost when Jaden scored 18+. We were 4-0 before hand. But to be fair, Jaden disappeared in the fourth.

I know it's only one game, but what a horrible horrible game.
We get 6 3-pointers from Jaden and hold them to 6/24 from 3 and somehow lose the game.

We were the trash wolves from late january tonight.

Offensive still horribly broken, defense leaking like a sieve.
Lively and Gafford roasting Rudy for 19 points and 20 rebounds.
Ant dribbling for 10 seconds and trying to ISO 4 guys at once every possession.
Our Grizzled vet leader making a bunch of dumb mental mistakes.

I want to have faith, but this is Minnesota sports fandom.

We can not underestimate Luka and Kyrie.

The best team win tonight. They came with more hunger than us.
We play a decent first half and a really bad second.
ANT and KAT have to do more. The shooting was below their usual level.
Mike was awful. He is clearly not playing at 100% but in this case why not give Morris some mins ?
Rudy was decent in defense but he give too many offensive board which is not acceptable.
Jaden was great tonight , he start to be more consistent, nice to see.
NAW is garbage right now…..

We have lot of issues to fix before game 2. Go Wolves !

Why does the other team always have the great gameplan?
Where are the coaching adjustments>
This is the 3rd series in a row teams have attacked our offense this way.

It's either Ant going full on ISO or 4th and 5th options making bad decisions.
It looks like absolute garbage.
