I know. They talk to those who played best or are willing to talk. Apparently the great replacement Leader Ricky and his 11 assists wasn't worthy or willing this game.

Often times the media requests who to talk to. Last night, the No. 1 vs. No. 2 was an obvious storyline, so people wanted to talk to Edwards. McLaughlin was an efficient bright spot. And Beasley for obvious reasons.


I agree, Mr. Bot sir.

I watched the whole game and thought we played well, but we just couldn't overcome the talent gap. Great minutes from Vanderbilt.
McDaniels continues to show things. Beasley is a stud. Okogie had an empty box score but he did the dirty work that made things easier for others. Not sure where his cut to the basket opportunities have gone, and if that is scheme related or a result of a lack of spacing. Not a great game from Rubio, which tends to happed when he has to over exert himself on the defensive end. McLaughlin looked great -- really trying to make things happen - despite little to no offensive scheme to make things easier for him. Layman is laughable. He is not an NBA player and I can't fathom why gets minutes. I actually think he's the worst player I've ever seen suit up for the Wolves, and that's saying something.

We cannot afford to let Jordan Mclaughlin go again. We need to give this guy a real contract after this season.

Rosas can convert his two way into a real deal at any time. I would love to see him wait until FA again if he plays all season this time, just to see JMac move on from this terrible PoBO.

Look its not Ricky or DLo. People will ask for DLo's head until he starts to play reasonable, even if Ricky gets traded. He simply has to be better, cant always point at everyone else when he is the highest paid vet.

We're talking about the worst franchise. Ever. The list of bad players through Minnesota is very very long.

Layman is more forgettable than downright terrible like Andres Guibert.

No thanks, you can do the mental work. that list is long

if you don't want to go way back in history there are a couple recent draft picks we can talk about.
