I think if you look at my history on this board .. . .  and the ESPN board the preceded it... you will note that I am a defender of the indefensible. As low as it's gotten in this 30 year journey, I've always seen the silver lining.

But I can't see it now.

Our star center is an absolute sieve. Shitty teams like the Hawks attack the rim when he's on the floor. He can't defend without fouling so he just doesn't defend. He still hasn't learned to read the defense and find the RIGHT pass out of the double team (hint. . .  it's never Culver at the 3).

Wiggins can get his 4 ft shot over anyone on this Hawks team and just doesn't impose his will. He looks like he knows he's leaving. He needs to go ballistic on the officials at some point. Quiet guys don't get calls ...the research is in . .. it has been for years.

arghh .... very frustrated


Wiggins has looked like he's leaving for 5 years. :).

Yep. In very Wolves-like fashion, They picked the wrong season to tank. :)

McLaughlin is very feisty on the defensive end, a terrific ball handler and good playmaker. I can see him as a very good backup PG. I like the way he, Okogie, Martin and Nowell have competed tonight.

KAT just going through the motions, doing nothing to cheer on his team mates on this little run.

Slowest to both ends . . . Needs to be sat. The reason he hasn't touched the ball is because he is makimg it easy to be defended
