Yeah, this was such a crushing defeat....tough to see us putting up much of a fight on Saturday. Perhaps we come out strong in Q1, but after two halves of epic self-immolation, it's hard to see us being able to sustain anything. The rest is kind of academic at this point. Enjoy the Bud Lights!



I grabbed a Castle Danger Cream Ale late in the 3rd. Then, the Costco cashews. Then, another Cream Ale. And another. Those are gone... and I'm on to Lonely Blondes.

I wasn't planning on a drinking night.

But I think I need it.

Just watched kats presser. Wow. Has this guy ever taken any responsibility for anything in his entire damn life? Dude sat there and talked about what he did well this game. Literally he is a damn joke and a fool.

To be fair Towns said they were going to keep playing Timberwolves basketball.

Fun fact Kat took only 4 more shots than me tonight and I had less fouls too.

I didn't watch the game tonight, but it's enough to know that the Wolves lost by 9 at home in front of a packed house after building a 26-point lead late in the 3rd quarter. It's inexcusable and embarrassing. It's also very Wolvesian. I also noticed that KAT had as many fouls as he did rebounds and almost as many fouls as points. That's pathetic for an all-star with his talent. Time to look to the offseason and start thinking about what the Wolves can do to improve.

I think the reason I'm sad is not because the wolves lost but how the future might look.

Going into the series I thought the wolves had a chance but I wasn't going to be mad if they lost because this is the 1st step in the process.

There is a big Kat concern going forward. How teams just can gamelan him out of games. Kat has more played in 9 playoff games including the play in and has been held to 15 or less points in 5 of them. This is against 3 different teams so its not a matchup thing.

Now Kat will make 3rd team all nba this year and he eligible for the super max. What I don't know if the Wolves can afford to do that with how bad he has been in the playoffs. Also I don't know if trading him will work either because Kat has carried the Wolves through out the regular season and his consistency has been huge to the Wolves this year.

Idk, this is the biggest gut punch I have ever had as a an of a sports team. My excitement for the game on Saturday has went down (I'm still excited that i was able to get box seats).

This one hurt. Props to Dlo, 1st half bev, Vando and Beasley thought they all played very well tonight.

On to the next one

Yep. That was my point in another thread. The 3 best players on the wolves have major question marks that are not going anywhere and that's why I wasnt as high on the wolves future as a lot on this board
