We desperately need a go-to, scoring wing in the 2016 NBA Draft, by the way. Luckily, it looks like there might be a couple good options...

(Jamal Murray, Jaylen Brown would be my two early choices...)

Bleed said there would be days like this. So everyone settle down.

@APkrawczynski
Towns said he liked every shot he got tonight. When he sees them go in and out, only makes him think the next team he plays is in trouble

I love that guy.

Why are people letting KG off the hook? He's made 3 baskets in 4 games. 3! 27% frickin percent on the season. You better be elite at something else if your going to be that bad. Rebounding? He grabs the same amount of boards as our starting point guard. Defense? He's getting blown by by everyone, watch the games.

So you pretty much put it all on Belly's hands to produce, and if he doesn't your pretty much screwed because then you get payned if he doesn't.

And KG signed a 2 year contract! He's going to be here until the end of next year. Until he signs for a max deal after that because Towns became the best player in the NBA and 100% of the credit has to go to KG

I wish I could say the same. If he likes them so much, try making more of them.

Yeah, he definitely had an off-night, but ultimately if he can be a reliable outside shooter, it really is a game changer for us because it gets the Hassan Whitesides, DeAndre Jordans, Marc Gasols, Rudy Goberts, etc. of the world out of the paint.

That might mean something if we had guys driving to the hoop.

Well, we're 6th in the NBA in free throw attempts. That implies we're getting to the rim somehow.

Maybe that's because we haven't played against those guys other than Whiteside, and our numbers were down last night.

Well, we were 3rd in the NBA last year in free throw attempts. Getting to the rim isn't our problem, although in single-game sample sizes I'm sure it occurs sometimes. Our problem offensively continues to be our inability to make shots.
