We were good until the starters got tired in the 4th. Pretty obvious what the problem is.

We need better players plain and simple.

Wolves have around a middle of the road starting pg. With Rush bottom 1/4th sg. Wiggins probably around the 10th sf. Dieng bottom 1/3rd starting pf. Towns top 5 center (needs to improve massively on defense).

Worst bench in the nba

I 100% agree but do you blame thibs based on how the bench played

Sorry about all my complaining on the thread. I kinda took it over. Just frustrated

Nope, we're just a thin group right now. But when everyone in the lineup plays over 35 minutes that's a recipe for disaster.

Hilarious 4th quarter by the Wolves and a predictable game overall.

Get lead, blow lead, bench sucks, starters wear down, hero ball, a role player on the other team drains 3's, game over.

I see 6 viable players on this team right now: Towns, Wiggs, Rubio, Dieng, Belly, and Lavine. Dieng and Belly would be served coming off the bench, and Lavine maybe as well considering his injury. That leaves some big holes to fill, including, and it sickens me to say it, we need another point guard. Dunn and Tyus are end of the bench guys right now that maybe can find a bigger role at some point. Everyone else, including Bazz, should be punted. Lots of work to do this summer. Lots.

Ya. The one thing I did disagree with Thibs tonight is he just kept giving the ball to Wiggins over and over and over when you could tell he was shot. I think towns had 1 shot in the 4th and that was a put back.

Please thibs give me a bench next year. I beg you. Go get me a Gibson, chandler, tucker, Redick. We currently have 5 average nba players (counting lavine) and only 2 above average starters we need more talented badly

and they'll sell you on the playoffs next year until they suck again and wanna reset the clock for another 3 year wait.

Couldn't agree more. And belly played 3 good weeks of basketball this year wouldn't count him as a lock either

Yes they will sell playoffs that is what the marketing department does. But it would be so stupid to touch wiggins or towns this offseason.

No team in the nba who will make the playoffs has a top 3 player in year 3 or less. Hard to win with a young team and even more hard to win when the vets are before average
