I just don't know how you build a title contender around KAT and Wiggins if Wig cannot either find a consistent shot or some other way to impact the offense consistently. His shot just disappears for weeks on end, if it goes AWOL during the playoffs this team is screwed.

You just hope it's growing pains and these periods of darkness get shorter over time. I mean, he was on fire for the entire month of February. It wasn't just 3 or 4 games, so we know he can turn it around. But yeah, not good timing on his part....

This is his third year and in each and every one of them he's had a month or two where he couldn't miss and a bunch where he was just short of useless. Sure hope he grows out of it but there is a trend already, it will really suck if this is just what Wiggins is going to be in terms of consistency, or lack thereof.
My God, if they blew the whistle for KAT like they do for Wall, he'd be at the free throw line all night. It's ridiculous. You hardly touch Wall and the whistle blows.

Yup! That is another outstanding win.
Now if we can steal a game or two on this road trip we will be in surprisingly good shape. Because after our home game against San Antonio, the next 6 games are all winnable.
Wow, what a win! Ricky, nuff said. Karl, nuff said. Belly, also very good. Helluva win against a great team playing well, but they never got closer than 5.
Did we almost trade Ricky for Derrick Rose?
And nice to see Wiggins get into the act a bit more in the 2nd half. He still looked lethargic, even for him, but maybe he found a little spark in the end. And agreed with the comment above, Wall got touched and he got 2 shots at the line, Karl got hammered and no whistle. But who cares, we owned them, including that bizznatch Brandon Jennings!
