Can't understand why they went away from Towns in the 2nd half

That was the worst basketball they have played this season. May be the Miami home game was a bit worse than this one. Just awful.

The only excuse I can think of is that this was their 8th game in 12 days. That's A LOT of games to play in such a short period of time, not to mention some travel thrown in there as well.

Yeah, for all you guys predicting wins in the 20s, and even saying you would be happy with the progress, I assume the team playing tonight is what you were expecting?

Zero points from Bazz. I don't know what others see in this guy. He is a one trick pony and lately we can't even count on him scoring. I'd rather Miller or Payne get minutes over Bazz.

Tim, that team tonight wouldn't win 20 games, much less the 26 I predicted! I would have predicted us to have a couple of home wins by now and perhaps a couple of unexpected road wins. No one could predict what has actually happened, with incredible road wins at Atlanta, Chicago, and Miami and still winless at home.

But yeah, assuming we keep a "normal" injury trend - which means key guys will miss some games, but not multiple guys being out for multiple weeks/months like last year - I still think this is a 20-something win squad.

They had 54 points in the paint and Mr. Drummond went to the line only once.

The good news is that we have a solid core of 4 guys to set a strong foundation for the future in KAT, Wigg, Lavine and Ricky. We might have the worst 5th to 15th guys in the league now. We just need to find the right role players and outside of Belly and probably Tyus, I don't think there is any certainty that any of the other 9 guys are here in 3 years.

If Glen wants to demolish Target Center, now is the time.

I can definitely see a Saunders Center in the future. :)
