Why were we guarding anything by the bucket there. Stupid coaching

Great move by Snider. Asking the officials to have a look and in the mean time drawing up a quick play.

We did almost everything we could to hand them that win. A win is a win, but Jesus that was just a bad way to close out a game.

One down, forty nine to go!

Just win baby, play .500 ball the first 10-15 games until they gel and lets do this thing

Hey 51!!!! If there all going to be like this I don't like what that will do to my health. We really tried to get Ricky the win.

Ugly, ugly, ugly.

- I'll tell you what, Bjelly may be our version of Joe Ingles. He keeps the ball moving, has been hitting the 3, and plays solid defense. I wonder if things would look a little more smooth out there with him in with the starters more (?).

- I thought Butler was shaky on offense. He and Wiggins both take too many tough-ass shots in isolation. Just ugly basketball. And Butler especially missed some wide open looks.

- Guys still aren't sure how to play with Teague.

- Utah is going to be a tough out most nights. They are so good defensively and play at such a slow pace that they keep the game within reach. They are like a West coast Memphis.

Good to get the win, but I've seen nothing that makes me think this team is anything special. .500-ish or a little better sounds about right still.

I thought we beat them solely by having more talent. We will gel more. Really feel bad for Hood. I can't see Utah being too much of a force. They just have such little talent. We had the game in hand through some reserves then tried to do the ole Wolves special. Jamal wasn't having it though. Great win.

It's interesting to see the swing in posititive thinking on this board is closely related to those who were Ricky fans and those who weren't.

Ricky playing in another TWolves game where he's on the losing end of things is not surprising .

He was always good at keeping us close. Teague really shut him down on that last possession. They almost got a broken play but I think Teague showed that even when you are off, timely plays from the point is huge.
