Gupta do everything in your power to bring a 7 footer in here. Get on the phones, send out the scouts, get us some size. STAT.

Too much of the discussion RE: DLo gets understandably caught up in his contract and how much he hasn't lived up to it.

He's not a max guy but he's our best shot creator and (despite his early season slump here) is a league average shooter on high volume. We've struggled without him offensively.

We are letting up. 14 point lead down to 7 with 3:30 left. As I type KAT with an O board and free throws. Makes both lead back to 9 with 3 to go. Morant 7 again.

We just spread em out and look to shoot 3's.

It was 14, it's now a 7 pt game. 3:05 left. Can we hold on? 50/50. It should be 90/10.

We just let them off board at will.

Wolves like Vikings have no killer instinct.

It's over. We blew a 14 point lead with 5 minutes to go. Nice freaking loss.

Is there a stat out there that shows what teams have blown the most 10+ point leads in the final 5 minutes of a game? I'd guarantee we're top 3 in that in the last decade.

5 second violation. This is my team and I love them. However, they are a freaking joke.

Are we sure Finch is a good coach? To have no second action in the inbound there. Awful.
