Also Fuck Jimmy
Yeah, I don't want to hear any "this team needs Butler" bullshit. He's the biggest reason we're in this sad state. WE HAVE TO CUT BAIT AND MOVE ON.
Ya I've changed my opinion on the matter. If he gets to pick and choose what games he plays, fuck that.
Just right now Jimmy quitting on the team is compounded because we are missing 2 good shot creators in Teague and Rose.
It's tough to watch right now because if Wiggins isn't hitting his mid range jumpers we are screwed. So hard to win when at all times you have 3 to 4 guys on the court that can't create for themselves and Wiggins is not that good making others better either
I can't believe we're missing Rose. I thought he was going to be some sort of throw in but we actually need him for depth. We are hurting right now if Butler decides on a whim not to play.
God i absolutely hate wiggins. Clanking his 2 pt junpers off the rim repeatedly and shooting very ineffeciently while playing with zero tenacity. Oh did i mention his albatross of a contract. I would bench his ass in favor of okogie. Hopefully get richardson from miami to play aside okogie and towns and work from there and let wiggins ride the pine. Maybe light a fire under his smug ass yet i doubt he would give a shit. Watching rose and okogie play makes me hate wiggins so much more
Also we should pick up reggie lynch to play behind towns. He is exactly the type of player we need. A defensive presence. Absolutely crazy he is overseas right now.

I mean Wiggins was bad no doubt but let's not act like Okogie was good. He shot 25% and had only 3 rebounds (Wiggins only had 1).
Wiggins has been generally good this year (not max good no doubt). Okogie works his ass off but let's not act like he is deserves to start. Wiggins in all his faults is still the better player
This team is flawed but it was REALLY undermaned and flat out could t hit a shot other than Towns even when they got good looks. I chalk it up more as one of those games than anything else. Bring on the Clippers tomorrow.

Ya lets bring in a guy who has massive off the court issues, where he has rumored sexually assaulted people in HS, at ISU and with the Gophers.
He also is not athletic enough to play in the NBA game.

I agree, we are flawed and we are probably a little under .500 team, I mean we have played what 2 teams that "might" be bad this year in the Cavs and Mavs (the Mavs game was away). We are 4-6, we are 0-5 on the road. We need to get healthy. Missing 2 starters and our sixth man is huge. We had no shot creators tonight outside of Wiggins and Wiggins was bad (He is hitting his 3s what I like).
On to the next one, we just need to keep in the race until we trade Butler or get healthy again.
