Asked if there are things he can sacrifice to avoid foul trouble, Karl-Anthony Towns said postgame that he's already started doing that by no longer crashing the offensive glass from the outside "just to possibly take any idea of giving me a foul out".

Kat when asked what he can do as a leader to pick up the group, " Go home drink some wine and move on to the next day. That's really simple. Just decompress, decompress.



What a damn joke he is.

Kat and a 1st (maybe multiple) for zion and Valanciunas?

I believe in the predictor of stuff for this season. I said this would be the year everyone turns on Towns.

We are here everyone. Keep the trade inquiries coming.

Hey that's dopers line!

I just tried to listen to Kat's postgame and turned it off after 5 seconds. Great athlete's need a bit of delusion, but enough reality to grow. Im pretty sure KAT was the kid who would go home once he lost on playground. The funniest thing about this is that now his "whole world is against me" complex is going to be reinforced. All just in time for him to get his supermax. We're going to pay over 40 mil for this.

This board is at it's best when the team is at it's worst. It's like YELP - a place to vent when you are pissed off. What an embarrassment that game was. Even Barkley went off on them:

Kekgeek is right in the other thread though....KAT was hands-down our best player during the regular season. We win 35 games at best without him and may be even not that many.

Perhaps he's our version of Ben Simmons. Really helps you stack up wins in the regular season but then in the playoffs gets absolutely exposed and flustered. Not good.

I've been saying this about Kat for 4 years now. Despite having a good regular season of you were watching close enough the signs and behaviors were still present. And when has Kat's team ever stacked up regular season wins??? In seven years in the league his teams have made the playoffs twice, both being a 7th seed a believe. Again being saying this for 4 years now.

That's not a good thing.

The wild part is that this franchise has historically drafted career winners, great talents, physical marvels, stabilizing locker room presences, yet it always ends in the same fashion.

Meanwhile the guy we're gonna crown as the new franchise guy has never been in big time situations like this in his life. Up is down here.


I just know this, the #1 thing we need to find in the draft with our picks are guys who simply aren't pussy. Straight up. You can teach hoops. The elite skill is important, but the #1 requirement of any incoming rookie this offseason is NO BITCHASSNESS.

He has to be such a buzzkill, melting down after every single foul, stealing rebounds, if you watch his single shot in the fourth quarter he stares at hands afterwards as if to insult his teammates for not passing him the ball. Listening to him front run during the mic'd up segments last night, telling our linebacker of a shooting guard to just shoot threes instead of drive... He makes me sick.
