Well, on the upside, the 2nd half can't get any worse, right?

0-15 at 3, dominated at rebound, 5 Ass- 9 TO, we beat all the record.... the worst first of the season. Hopefully it change in second half. Finch annoyed me really, why not put young guys like TSJ or Clark when the others ( except Rudy) are just full garbage? Maybe he think they will find their rhythm after a while?

Is this the curse of a Wolves fan or what? Curry out of the game and we scored 31 points in a half? GSW could had easily double up on us for 62-31. What the he* kinda offense do we run out there?

This is what I was talking about when saying rest can be overrated. Now you might say the lack of rest could’ve lead to curry’s injury. But the long rest clearly hasn’t benefited the wolves at all. Worst half of basketball in prob the last few years.

Now things could change as the series progresses but this is ugly. They’re letting the warriors dictate the pace. Slow down and play smarter ball.

Attack the basket.

Ugh why does this game have to be on TNT?? Every bad performance is on TNT.

As bad as that is, the offense is 100 times worse.

Wolves should probably just stay out and do shooting practice

Wolves are always trying to find ways to one up themselves…hopefully not though

Same **** happened last year. “I want kyrie” and we sucked our way to a 1-4 series loss.

We are sloppy and settling. The 3s might be open, but they aren’t falling need to get inside and get buckets to fall and the basket will start to get bigger

If I had never seen a professional basketball game before I would turn this off and never, ever watch another game again.
Utterly disgusting.

What in the world has gotten into this team's offense.
It's unfathomable how bad we are tonight, after the 7/47 nightmare in game 5.

Doesn't help when Julius Randle blows 2 straight 3 on 1 breaks.

We better hope Curry is gonna miss the whole series if we are gonna play this bad.

If we play our level, we win in 5 but we have been unable to do it on a regular basis all season. Curry, Butler and Green are consistent night after night. Have to wake up.

You didn't say we only scored 31 points in a half :D

It looked like Naz took a knee to the thigh from the lady in the front row when he went after that loose ball.
So hopefully only a charlie horse and he shakes it off.

We gave up 8 offensive rebounds to guys 6'5 or less.
9 turnovers.
-27 on 3 point makes.
31.8% Effective Field Goal % and only 3 FT makes.

We are damn lucky we are still in this game.

The Warriors aren't doing anything special we are just unbelievably DUMB and BAD AT SHOOTING.

After all the bs losses this year, and watching Finch’s excuses in the pressers, I'm done with him...

I thought we would be different in the playoffs, but no, I'm no longer going to listen to his crap. We have too much talent to be underperforming like this.

Blaming the players only works so long...

Wolves players 6'8 or taller are 12/24 for 26 points (not great but acceptable)
Wolves players 6'7 or shorter are 2/20 for 5 points (WTF)
