Another damn fork - Wolves at Pelicans GDT

Went on the road against a team with the same record, snuck out with one of their ping pong balls. Win!

Agree. Bring on the Clunkometer!

Another game where Bazz is the only player with heart. This is pathetic.

Maybe the Wizard will give Bazz a brain.

The more you knock him the better he plays. Keep going maybe you'll get one too.

The more you suck Bazz's d*ck, the more points he gives up. -12 so far.

Your analysis is really proving your intellectual clout. Deep use of the plus minus. I guess he's better than Zach and Gorgui according to you.

You singled out Bazz as deserving special praise and I am telling you that you are full of sh*t!!!

Him having a better plus minus than his other bench counterparts points to my point. As well as him shooting 50% from the field with 5 boards and a block. You still hate him without evidence and I am full of shit. Brilliant.

Why is there name-calling and insults being thrown around? Very unlike this group. Grab hands, sway back and forth and say, "Ben Simmons is coming."

OK Genius how has Bazz done in plus/minus all year?? Bazz has the worst Real Plus Minus on the team and he's close to the worst in the NBA. There are 430 NBA players ranked and guess where Bazz is? http://espn.go.com/nba/statistics/rpm/_/page/11/sort/RPM

when you lose by 15 even though you started with 17 point lead, that is hard .. when your coach after that says that we just did not hit shots even though we scored 99 points and allowed 114, that is hard .. man this team is killing me

Sam's take: "We stopped moving the ball in the second half." My observation: the Pelicans took the passing lanes away and ramped up their defense in the second half. Sam didn't adjust, went too deep with 11 guys and left second unit in way too long. The result was s lot of wide open jump shots that Wolves players passed up in favor of extra dribbles or I'll-advised passes that led to poor/contested shots or turnovers. And of course, there was the usual poor spacing and probably the same poor off-ball movement.

Sam's post-game comments confirmed my take on how his coaching is not conducive to good shooting. Our players are afraid to shoot because of what Sam preaches in or twice. Our guys the pass up better shots for worse ones, shoot out of rhythm and lack the confidence so critical to effective shooting.

A 32 point swing resulting in a loss is on the coach. Has he accepted any blame this year for games like this where he just gets outcoached and leaves the game essentially with his pants down? A good coach doesn't just leave lineups out there to get whooped. Even a coach like Pop will pull everyone if they suck for any extended period of time whether they be a starter or not. I'm done with Sam. The dude just has no accountability for what's happening on the court. It's no wonder he lost his locker room in Toronto. The dude throws everyone but himself under the bus. I'm surprised as a former player himself that he's doing this. There's no way he would have put up with this shit during his playing days.

Can we finally give up on Zach LaVine already? Flip and now Sam's master plan has failed miserably and if they keep trying this, it's gonna be the downfall of this entire rebuilding process.

Give up on a guy with less than 1.5 years experience in the league who was drafted as a project. Cause that makes sense.
