Another double digit chokejob by the Wolves. I can't say i didn't see it coming but this Denver team is so bad i thought they would hold on.

Well Towns got his shot. Yuck.

I love what he's done to this team defensively, but offensively he offers very little and none of the other assistants are any help there.

Guys gotta make shots though. A coach is rarely going to draw up a brilliant play in OT that gives us a wide open layup.

I agree, but this half court mentality doesn't suit this roster. We need to use are speed and athleticism better.

Man, guys here were saying the nuggets are horrible at the half and they come back and kick our ass!

Galo is one of my favorite non wolf player but I would love us to get the W.

Wig's miss fts at regulation hurt us tonight.

It's hard to feel disappointed when you just know it's coming.

Kmart wasn't gonna make it, i doubt Wiggins would, the only other guy i would've liked seeing taking it would've been Lavine.

I would've had Rudez out there.

I thought Rudez would be out there too. It was just a bad play. Towns was running away from the hoop.

It's not the loss that sucks, it's how pathetically they played. Too much talent on this team to continue to piss away leads against bad teams.

You keep a player on your roster who's good for not much more than hitting threes and he's not on the floor when you need a three?

He misses shots and free throws in crunch time. He passes the ball to Martin on a 2 on 1 break. He has a poor handle for an NBA wing. I love his physical talent. But I can't say he'll be a great player. My jury is way out on him. But I am prepared to say that Towns will be a great player - mental toughness, competitive fire, high BB IQ, great complete skill set for his position. Those are the building blocks of great players.
