I don't see how that's a foul on Towns.

Like I said, Nets are still talented and there big problems has been closing games but we have been really terrible there too so this actually gives them a chance to win.

Towns got to go to post. It's working and all of a sudden he is camping out on the three every play

Have they had a good offensive position in the qtr??

Turnovers or contested off balance jumpers every possession I can recall

We are such a stupid team. Defensively we swipe way way waaaaay too much. Just move your GD feet and kee your arms up.
Offensively the coach need to not have Anderson in with Gobert, half a season should be enough to know it don’t work.

No. It’s too bad there isn’t some guy whose job it is to call plays or anything like that.



We have the record we have despite Finch.

It’s was Gobert, this offseason, who worked with the coaches to change the defense.

Horrible qtr by ant, especially D
Overplaying bridges, letting him penetrate rather than playing off, not like bridges is a great pull-up guy you need to press

But it’s that Team USA mano o mano bs

Why do we need Anthony Edwards dribbling out the entire shot clock into a midrange jumper when he’s missed ten straight shots? Zero passes on the possession, such a selfish player at times.

Great defensive possession, Anthony Edwards clamped Mikal Bridges, there.

Super unnecessary foul at the end there, have to have better discipline, there. Shame, because it was great defense, up to at point.

Fortunately Mikal Bridges choked the free-throw.

It’s that starting lineup that’s going to need to figure out these clutch games

Even if a trade is made, those will be the 5 when it’s go time

I like lucky wins. I'll take lucky wins every game for the remainder of the season. Go Wolves.

No we actually don't suck. We didn't get to 32-13 by sucking.
