No KAT. No RoCo. Lip would call that soft tanking. But the Wolves won.

Even if the Wolves were playing like a contender, a loss in Milwaukee is expected. Hopefully KAT will be back after that.

Don't want to watch tomorrow night. Just tell me who wins. Would rather see the Bucks win this year, but i can't cheer against either team. It's just no fun for me when these two teams play.

I'll be watching and rooting for the Bucks. I want the Bucks to win the East and I'm still in soft-tank mode, wanting the Wolves to improve their draft position for June. So a Bucks win tomorrow night will be a win-win in my book.

As I've said many times, there's very little to be gained for the Wolves by winning games down the stretch this season based on the play of guys like Taj Gibson, Anthony Tolliver, Derrick Rose, Luol Deng or even Jeff Teague since all those guys will likely be gone after this season or at least after next season. I like all those guys, but don't see any of them, except maybe Rose, as a longer term part of a rise to contender status.

Meh. Win as much as we can. In the end, it likely won't matter. All the losing and incompetent decision-making that starts with Glen Taylor will force Karl-Anthony Towns to leave in two years anyway.

The only way KAT even thinks about staying is if this team gets some life. We absolutely need to win whenever we can. Losing to plan for the future isn't going to fly at this point. I'm with you 100% here, there is no reason to think we'd make good on a draft opportunity anyway.

This game reminded me of when we were really young and bad a few years ago and middling teams with a solid group of veterans would just kind of play with us and then eventually get a fairly easy win. We were without our star player, but it didn't matter.

I thought kbd looked good out there. He gives us something different from saric. If Taj doesn't come back, I like a saric/Kbd pf rotation.

This game struggled to hold my interest, to be honest.

He is really long. I'm also hoping he can be Saric's backup and provide a versatile defender that can switch and guard multiple positions.

Defense is the key to this team's chances over the next couple of years, as there are no apparent stars in the offing!
