Well, this game was sad on our part. Also, being broadcasted on national television puts the cherry on top. This was a game where I wanted to walk out in the 3rd but would feel like a bandwagon prick if I were to, so like always, I stay 'til the end. I miss winning.

Ugly ugly ugly this team is de-evolving into an obtuse piece of flotsam.

what kills me is that people thought the Wolves were still this type of team, and if tonight is all they saw, they will continue to think it. We have really grown this year, but our banged up lineup just doesn't look anything like the pre- ASG team. Its a shame.

Thanks God I didn't watch the game.

I never guessed how much we would miss Rubio.

I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't win another game, the effort level is certainly getting worse by the day. At this point I'm just hoping for no more injuries.

This...

I think it was the middle of the 3rd where I really started to believe that if Love could that he would just not show up for any games for the rest of the year. He looks checked-out.

The other guys seemed to be trying a bit. Hopefully they can win a few in April.

I'm all for reducing Love's minutes to lessen the odds of him getting an injury. Give Williams like 1/3 of Love's minutes and hope he can produce on a consistent level. Not that it really makes a huge difference, altogether, but there's really not much of a point to playing Love 35+ minutes when he's tired.

Well I skipped this game as a mental health break. A great decision on my part. I will probably skip the rest of this season, too. My personal rule is I'll watch as long as the players are playing. When they check out and stop competing, I stop watching. I don't consider than being a fair weather fan, either. I consider the players fair weather players.

Such a sad way to end the season.

That is it completely. They are playing with such a lack of effort and execution, how can we as fans support that?

These are getting really hard to watch. Love looks dead tired out there. Pek is still banged up.

Beasley is frustrating. He can get so unfocused doing the simplest things.

I would be fine cutting Love's minutes down. No need to run him 40 minutes a night now. Play some more Derrick and AR.

AR might finally be turning it around? He played some good defense last night. Got that steal and didn't try to dribble it up right away, but ended up doing it since the break was there. I'd love to see him develop here, he was always one of my favorite prospects.
