Im seeing bad body language from the wolves player so far. They dont seem to be in this game mentally. No excuse after a 2 day off

It is really the only move left to make this year. Which is why I have been calling for it for a while now. The only excuse that can span 0-10 in close games is Adelman.

It seems like the starts have quit. I hope they ca put something together in the second half...otherwise this will be a blowout

No fire at all in the first half from the team. We need to wake up in the 2nd.

When a player improves as dramatically as Williams has since leaving our team you can't help but point to the coaching choices. Adelman's system creates difficult shots for the 4th or 5th option in an offense (ie usually rushed set shots). Williams strength is iso, straight P and R, and transition. Just a systematic non-fit to quote the bald doofus.

You could point to coaching. On the other hand there have been plenty of very talented players over the years who never applied themselves until the wake up call of a trade or getting cut. Chris Carter of the Vikings is a great local example.
I've never seen the desire to excel in DWill's game while here. He may well be expending the requisite energy now out of fear that the good life of the NBA will pass him by otherwise. A top pick will always get a second chance, but a third is guaranteed to no one.

I suspect no Love in 2nd half. Cunningham is not a good option, but who else is there? Might be nice to have Williams back!

The 3 people on this team with the worst +/- # are the 3 guys that we are supposedly building this team around. Love Pek and Rubio. GRRRRRRR

Looks like Love will give it a go. Brewer needs to be somebody
