Super dumb move by Thibs to have KAT on Capela. You just knew they'd immediately attack him on the PnR. Zero creativity by Thibs.

They are guarding Wiggins like Ricky at the 3P line.

How about the great defender Jimmy Butler giving Harden all that space to shoot his last three, which thankfully he missed.
Re: Wolves vs Rockets (It's playoff time!!!) GDT
So far Wiggins is the only player on our team who's performing.

Embarrassing, but not surprising. This is why I referred to this as my nightmare scenario. I ended up pulling for the Wolves to make the playoffs as I cheered my voice raw at the game against Denver. But in quiet reflection now watching this atrocity on TV, I regret the win against Denver. There is no learning in this embarrassment. Only humiliation and a reminder that this team isn't remotely close to being a contender.
I couldn't disagree more than there isn't learning from this. They need to know how far they still need to come. Especially KAT with his D. If he can't figure it out we're not going to progress.

houston cant attack wiggs and taj in pnr like they can with teague and KAT.

Obviously, we don't guard the three the way every other playoff team guards the three.

To be fair other playoff teams aren't guarding the most prolific 3-point shooting team in NBA history

KAT is wilting under the pressure of the playoffs.
Maybe a move to PF is in his future if he continues to not defend.

And yes, KAT is totally overwhelmed by the moment so far. But Q's right. Thibs should not have had KAT on Capela
