Thank you TC. I knew it was only a matter of time that the Rockets would be a better team than us. We aren't getting younger and we aren't developing players. Right now just give us the young guys and entertainment.

Unless we make a trade asap, season will be hard to watch. Our level right now is not even at the play-in level.

Was last year an anomaly for Dante? This team is poorly constructed and they clearly punted on being a contender this year for whatever future success they think they’ll have.

Absolutely horrible to watch and enjoy. Why can’t the wolves build a team like OKC or something where they allow their team to grow together?

Now we have absolutely nothing to work with in terms of assets. Idk sometimes you can just feel it and this feels opposite of last year. Old wolves type of feeling.

On a positive note, there is an opportunity to make money betting against us.

Rudy is a team defender, absolutely terrible on ball. But you can’t take him off the floor cause it gets worse smh

We are trash at cup games. I wanted to compete in this thing. I'm also saying our status as a contender is over. We are a team fighting for the playoffs, similar to Phoenix or Lakers of last season. We just aren't very good and the really great teams typically have more signs a quarter into the season. This is who we are. We can still hope we turn it up and go on a run to finish strong but I don't see us like I did to start the season.

At least we play better when Randle and DDV are on the bench :)

Im not even going to bring it up anymore. Coaching staff needs to be held to some accountability though. Just because someone was at one point in their career voted all-nba, doesn't mean they automatically should get minutes.

If Finch takes Rob out, he's a confirmed idiot

What happens to every renowned shooter the first day they report to the Timberwolves front office after a trade or signing.

Who will get their jersey retired first, KG or Naz?

It's nice to see that rookie RD is already the best passing guy in this team with Mike. This young guy will be good ! Can someone block Finch to let him put back DDV or Randle?

Next games are pretty simple. Play Mike when he is healthy and give DDV and Randle min to RD and NAZ. This way we may even be a good team again.

The difference between having Dillingham at PG over Danta/NAW is massive. The pace and ball movement is just so much better.
