Wolves versus Hawks GDT: Circling the Drain

[BloopOracle]

Is tonight the night we end our playoff hopes with another pathetic performance?

that teague/kat pnr defense is tough to watch.

if we make the playoffs, i see the opposing team ramming that play down our throats.

Seems we like giving opposing teams wide open 3's still.

none of our bigs can cover stretch bigs.

none of our bigs can cover stretch bigs.

They can't cover post players or rim runners either. Taj is the closest we got.

Win with KAT. Lose with KAT. I guess...

[60WinTim]

Wow! Crawford pulled for Tyus, clearly because of putrid defense...

[Wolvesfan21]

Brewer and Mo crying! :cry:

[BloopOracle]

Stressful game but really cool to see a franchise scoring record made tonight!

Good win I guess (?). KAT was just brilliant, but the fact he even had to play well into the 4th quarter against a team actively trying to tank and playing its sixth straight road game says a lot. The defense is just terrible.

Tyus Jones might be our best team defender after Butler and Gibson. He created something like four turnovers in his first half stint (two steals and two offensive fouls drawn). When you are ending possessions for the other team without them even getting a shot attempt, that's great defense. On the other hand, he really needs to find a way get the ball in the hoop. It's the one big thing holding him back in terms of eventually stepping in for a guy like Teague.
