You think D-Lo had a honeybee on the Wizards plus 1 tonight?

Here's my list of players, other than KAT, who I want to see from this point on in the season:

1. JMac
2. Edwards
3. Okogie
4. Nowell
5. Beasley
6. Vanderbilt
7. Naz Reid
8. Culver - although I'm losing patience with him

Those are the guys with talent who are also athletic and play hard. I have no interest in seeing DLO on the court anymore. And while I love Ricky, I'd prefer to move on from him.

At least we are consistently losing by about 30 points. What an absolute embarrassment by Rosas. It could be argued all his trades have flopped. Juancho is just terrible and always has been. Beasley a terrible human being in the offseason was able to parlay a 14 game performance into a massive overpay. We traded a terrible team cancer in wiggins for another in dlo while also tossing in our first next year for good measure. To top it of if we deal dlo kat will have his feelings hurt and will demand a trade. Dont forget his marvelous wizardry of trading up for culver. Almost everybody picked directly after him look like they will be much better than Culver. Edwards pick will be terrible, we traded for a broken down overpaid rubio. We have no bigs. Running a team around some damn system that you envision rather than simply fitting a system to your players is straight up stupid. We are screwed. This year and next. Please don't let Rosas make anymore decisions. If you can't see the train has been run well off the track you must be damn blind.

That's if Nowell ever recovers from his quad contusion...it's starting to remind me of Layman's toe injury last year.

Everyone misses Thibs, brings a tear to my eye. Haha. Love ya all

Saunders substitutions have been quite regimented. Im sure hes following some sort of analytical marching orders from up top. Edwards needs to start. Theres no reason not to at this point. If we play two bigs with DLo, Edwards and Beasley and Rubio first off the bench we cant be any worse than the dumpster fire we've seen the last 3 games. The small ball thing is not going to work without KAT.

The whole design of this rebuild is just insane. You can't build a roster like this and have anyone take you seriously. We keep going backward as a franchise. We should be relegated to the Spanish professional league.

Lol. Of course, I don't miss Thibs even though I'd say he's a better head coach than Ryan Saunders. :) But I have no doubt the Wolves could do a lot better than Gersson and Ryan.

We're not totally bereft of talent. We have some nice building blocks in KAT, Edwards, JMac (our own VanVleet), Naz Reid and Okogie. We might have a couple other nice building blocks in Culver and Nowell. But it's not enough and it's not optimized by the current head coach.

Unfortunately, there is no silver lining in what is likely to be a lottery finish for the Wolves this season because the Warriors have both of our 2021 draft picks. I supposed there's a chance we keep our 1st round pick, but it's only top 3 protected, which makes that chance really remote.

The idea that Glen thought we could be innovators is what is funniest about this whole thing.

Isn't the pick to GS top 3 protected? Maybe the tank is on... and on... and on again!
