Wow, pretty much all of those besides the Pekovic thing bring up negative feelings. With our franchise in the state it's in, we as a Realgm board are in need of a "Most encouraging thing of the season?" thread.

That being said, I voted:

-Defense, or lack thereof
-scrubs lighting us up

Also, you could probably add "Letting Telly Hughes get to us"

I vote none of them. What annoys me the most is all the hate/bickering/negativity all over the place. Lighten up, guys. You only live once. I'm as die-hard as a Wolves fan can get but I certainly don't let that ruin my day.

However, if someone held me at gun point and I had to vote, I'd pick the billions of records set against us and every scrub lighting it up.

And to add one more thing to be mad about is the team's lack of will/desire/hustle/heart.

I would've done one, too. Unfortunately, I can't think of 10 positive things. There's KLove's emergence, there's Tolliver and there's the addition of AR. Maybe Beasley lighting it up at the start of the season.
Other than that I don't know anything really positive.

It's called frustration. You gotta let it out somewhere or it will kill you. I rather read a bunch of negative threats than knowing that everyone just puts a good face on the matter.

It's called being a Wolves fan. I chose worst record because everything listed prior contributed to the poor performance this season.

The scrub option was #1 for me, it's so, so painful to watch players like Ish Smith, Reynaldo Bin-Balkman and Earl Watson tear us apart..not to mention Dahntay Jones destroy in the 4th. There's plenty others too but these are the ones that spring to mind. Letting Koufos get into double figures against us was kinda embarrassing, too.

#2 - The record, simple. It's just depressing.

I just wish we passed the ball more.
I wish Ridnour and Tolliver were our star role players off the bench.
I wish our players bought into the triangle offense.
I wish we fed Darko less on the post and more on cuts and in the pivot.

It's the lack of defense for me. The awful defense is what has caused the worst record and all of the scrubs and players setting records on us.

Waiting for a player that shots lower than 30% to travel from Europe and revive the team not a option?

Went with efense and worst record. The billion records and scrubs lighting up are a symptom of defense.

It doesn't ruin my day either. Don't think anything on the internet could ever ruin my day. I just gotta let things out. When something bugs me I gotta let it out and then it doesn't botter me anymore for some time. Unfortunately, the Wolves give you reason to be mad on a daily basis.

Obviously not, but I've never seen a PG turn it over 3 times in 3 possessions like Flynn did once this season.
