Were getting lucky they are missing 3's right now. It's just a matter of time.

That move was too obvious.

Thibs is playing tic tac toe when everyone else is playing chess.

Embarrassing, but not surprising. This is why I referred to this as my nightmare scenario. I ended up pulling for the Wolves to make the playoffs as I cheered my voice raw at the game against Denver. But in quiet reflection now watching this atrocity on TV, I regret the win against Denver. There is no learning in this embarrassment. Only humiliation and a reminder that this team isn't remotely close to being a contender.


I couldn't disagree more than there isn't learning from this. They need to know how far they still need to come. Especially KAT with his D. If he can't figure it out we're not going to progress.



KAT is wilting under the pressure of the playoffs.

Maybe a move to PF is in his future if he continues to not defend.


Trade Wiggins for Gobert!

To be fair other playoff teams aren't guarding the most prolific 3-point shooting team in NBA history


The point isn't that the Rockets are hitting threes. Actually, they've been missing quite a few so far tonight. The point is all the space we give them to shoot those threes. But that's no surprise.

Wiggins playing the hardest among the starters. The rockets are just on a different level. But being in the playoffs is huge for wig and towns.

One thing I have noticed is that KAT has sagged waaaaay off Harden and Gordon if they get past the 3-point line in order to bait them into mid range jumpers. It worked....except they made them. I like it though.

From the early messages you would think we are losing by 50 but no we are tied and almost at end of 1st quarter
