Lol. Actually, he looked great with zero turnovers. I loved the cool gold chain around his neck.

Good one keek. Wigs has been good in his 3 full games with us. If he had started the season the way KAT has, Im sure every game thread will be dominated with wiggins is a bust posts and we will have a poll measuring his heart and motor by now.

To be fair even as a Wiggins guy. Wiggins doesn't get the benefit of the doubt that towns get.

But i'm starting to worry about towns a little bit. But it is small sample size

I've been a Towns guy and the numbers he has put up consistently for three straight seasons have certainly earned him the benefit of the doubt. But like you, I'm starting to worry about him in spite of the small sample size to date. This is not the Towns we've seen for the last three seasons. What's particularly troubling is that he's never been streaky. So a stretch of games like we've seen from him so far this season can't easily be dismissed as no more than a bad streak. When it comes to Wiggins, I do like the effort we've seen from him in the playoffs last season and in the few games he's played so far this season. But overall, I just don't like what I'm seeing from the Wolves team as a whole so far this season.

Im with you guys on being worried about KAT. This is not the KAT we have watched for 3 seasons. its still early but he is playing with no joy at all. Its like he is being forced to play and he is not enjoying it. I blame all this on thibs. He is responsible for this toxic and negative environment that the wolves team are now in. Its really time to trade jimmy and fire thibs. There is just no other way around it.

I'm less worried and more disappointed by Towns. I personally thought he was a lot more mentally tough and overall just not a soft player, but he's making me rethink things with how he's acted throughout these last couple months and even back to the playoffs.

Your best player should be your most confident and most unshakable. If the drama from a teammate wanting out can make him go from an All-NBA player to a mediocre big, how is he supposed to handle the rigors of the playoffs and going toe to toe with the best when it matters most?

We have to take the gloves off with these guys and stop babying them. They are professional athletes getting paid the maximum amount of dollars for the foreseeable future. As far as I can tell, Jimmy Butler has exposed this entire franchise for what it is -- SOFT and WEAK.

Cleaning house has been on my mind a lot lately, and that includes everyone except for Josh Okogie. He's the only potential core member who I have unwavering confidence about in terms of him not being a pussy.

Still haven't watched since I announced my exile... so sounds like I chose wisely.

BUT...

I'm going to the game Monday. Fortunately, VERY fortunately... I did not have to pay for my ticket. Whew.

Exile...good word. I like that word. Not sure if not watching the first 5 games of the season counts though! I think one needs to step away for a 20-game minimum before the word "exile" can be used.

Thanks for listening.
