Chance to walk out of here with a win still. Let's hope they get it. Learn a tough lesson but still get the W, would be best case scenario.

Rather have Reid in there than Gobert if the play is to have KAT drive

I think KAT was mugged on that drive.

Ooof drive into a packed paint. Which we know every team packs the paint against us. Not a great play.

I don't complain about refs often, but that is a huge missed on Towns. At least call it first so you could review it.

Well, like the last game, I say this is a much-deserved loss. Played little defense, yea the shooting was fun but we didn't play team ball and it caught up with us. Team really needs to to get it together and they will continue to lose games until they put it together.

It was a great play if the refs did their job. He was fouled 3 times on that drive.

Towns didn't have to shoot it that fast he had a second and a half. He's still pissed at the no call.

Re: Game 43 Hornets at Wolves 1/22/24 30-12
That was the worst defense I have seen from any team for a very long time.
I've seen more ball pressure in All-Star Games.
Supposed defensive guru Jaden McDaniels can't keep anyone in front of him anymore.
KAT scored 62, he easily gave up 40 all by himself.
\
Finch kept the one big on the bench in Naz who was giving effort and challenging shooters and left KAT and Gobert out there to get cooked.
What the F is Gobert doing out there down 5 points with a minute to go?
Awful. Pathetic.
I can't effing stand watching this same garbage game after game for the last month an a half.
I'm done watching for a good long while.
Eff this team.
These losers don't deserve your hard earned money.
Time to move my free time to a more productive hobby.
First round exit absolutely positively assured if we don't slip into the play-in.
Up 18 points with one possession left in the 3rd quarter to a team on a sub 20 win pace.
Absolutely effing disgusted.

Re: Game 43 Hornets at Wolves 1/22/24 30-12
bad loss but one game
the disconcerting thing is that this is how (last two games in particular) Wolves will be played in playoffs
small lineups, stretched out defense
its just awkward trying to defend on perimeter possession after possession with big guys that are more comfortable in the paint
and the Wolves lack of outside shooting allows the smaller team to pack in the paint and negate the Wolves size advantage

The ref missed a call but I don't like to complain about that. We were well within our own powers to win that game. We didn't do nearly enough to do so. We turned what should have been an awesome night into a joke. That's what happens when you don't bring it. Deserved loss, the team will continue to lose and fall in the standings until they address their issues and clean their game up.
