Saunders rotations don't make sense to me a lot of times. There is no balance in the 5 we are using now.

I don't even think he is athletic looking at him live. Bulked up yes. But I wouldn't describe him as athletic, he is a plodder.

He looks so disinterested.. terrible body language hands on hips all the time..

There is no justification for letting Edwards continue to kill the team.

Welp looks like this one is going to be ugly. Hawks are playing a lot better we aren't.

Culver and McDaniels have both been WAY off on some of these misses.

The coaching makes ALL the difference here. Will Saunders allow the rookie to ruin this game again without at least caling him and giving him a bit of input? Or will he continue to talk to him and influence his decision making?

Team looks deeply lost tonight. Generally, I see things through but I'm stepping away for a while, will check the score later and tune in if it's closer but yea, not seeing any spark tonight.

This is yet another extremely embarrassing performance. How many times can the team be completely demoralized before the Wolves are forced to remove Saunders?

Worst part is that we will keep letting Saunders be inept. That is what a loser franchise does. I am speaking about the Minnesota timberwolves so it makes sense. He is so clearly in over his head.

You guys are in for a brutal realization when Saunders gets fired and the team keeps sucking. So many net-negative players on this team.

I wanted to see Nowell get some run, but playing him in a super small ball line-up is just not giving him a chance for success.

What is he reasonably supposed to do? I have critiques of him, but this team is hot garbage.

Well. I felt like without watching games I couldn't comment.

Watched that disgusting performance and I feel vinticated with my criticism of Culver and Edwards.
