Why Did we Start so Lazy?

We're not even fucking trying. What the hell is going on here? Glad I didn't buy a ticket.

Glad KAT showed up. Without him, there would be no reason to continue watching this game.

6 turnovers for Wig here not even half way through the 3rd quarter

Someone tell me why Greg Smith got signed a second 10-day contract and then for the rest of the season. I don't see it. He's just not very good.

This is tough to watch

Also, I hope Lindsay Whalen never broadcasts ever again.

Belly and Rudy doing well tonight. I would like to see Rudy get more minutes so we can make a more informed decision on his future.

That start was a disgrace. This is a team we should beat at home now and we don't look engaged at all.

I dig the optimism. But I don't know if the Wolves are quite ready to be expected to beat 50+ win teams at home. Some day.

And you're right. They did look lazy, uninspired, tired...

Consider they played without Griffin and Pierce, and deployed Wes Johnson and Luc Richard for significant minutes. I think we should have at least been in the game.

Thankfully I had another commitment and didn't see a second of this game, but after words Sam gave a 30 second press conference saying how much the team sucks and isn't ready yet. Then he didn't answer any questions and walked off. That could be the silver lining of this ugly game: a final reminder that Sam isn't the guy for the job. Yeah he had every right to be upset with his team, but to rip them a new one to the press when overall they have been playing much better lately in my opinion is uncalled for. It's too late for a "throw your team under the bus and see how they respond" move. The season was down the drain weeks ago.

Another thought: one of the biggest disappointments to me this year has been the overall effort at home. Only the Lakers and 76ers have worse home records, and we have played a lot of clunkers (meanwhile we have almost an identical record on the road). That has to change next year.
