Wiggins is showing great effort, but his poor handle has been on full display in the 4th quarter. Substandard talent without KAT and poor coaching are the twin hallmarks of this team.

I can't watch tonight how is nowell. He and Naz are the only reasons I'm semi interested in the rest of the season

Better than okogie and culver.

Wiggs is running into 3 nuggets every time in the paint. He needs to pass more.

Wiggs getting stripped alot tonight.

Lol, why is saunders calling the play to give it to cov there.

Burn it to the ground. All of it.

Nowell needs to take all of okogie and culver minutes for the rest of the season. He might actually be a player.

Nine point loss in Denver without KAT. I've certainly seen worse games.

I agree with Cool that a 9 point loss on the road to the Nuggets without KAT isn't bad. The Wolves showed fight most of the game. But Nowell should have seen a lot more time on the floor. I have no idea why Graham had any minutes at all.

We're second in the league in Free Throws attempted per game and 19th in FT%. It's not just 3's. We're leaving a lot of free points on the board every night. We shot 15 more free throws than Denver tonight and only got a 7 point advantage.

Dieng gets ripped on around here. A lot.

He's not good. And he's massively overpaid. But is he really the proper target for all the scorn.

After all, the Wolves are perpetually bad... and yet the guy has at least had a positive VORP every year. Every year. At least he's an average NBA player. The same cannot be said for the vast majority of NBA players who came through MN over the past 7 years.

Is it all because of the contract... or are we simply too familiar with his game (and his flaws) after so many years watching him be "meh" for a "meh" club. In some ways, Wiggins faces the same thing. It's been 6 years for him.

Without kat, we can hold teams under 120, but cant score.

With kat, we give up 120, but we can score.

Why is it so hard for this team to find a comfortable middle ground.
