Very true, we're all skinny and under 20. We need some more ass!

Then disappears.

When he plays like this we just aren't competitive as a team.

The pre-All Star game Timberwolves are history, the pre-pre-All Star game Timberwolves are back!

Haha. I knew that was coming. Sorry Porkchop

That's always been my biggest criticism of Wiggins. The effort has to be there all the time, not just when he feels like it. Name a superstar player that had effort issues? It's frustrating as hell to watch.

They've got to check into why his stamina is so weak. Doesn't seem to have enough wind half the time he's on the court. Check his thyroid.

We just can't be this bad against a team like the Knicks

Lets keep it real here, the players sucked tonight and deserved to lose. Couldn't rebound, couldn't guard Mello, and I'm sick of watching Wiggins shoot long 2's. Atrocious shot selection from him tonight.

While the players lost the game, tonight was the final straw for me with Sam. These last games should be treated as an opportunity for the Wolves to develop young players. This should mean starting Zach at the 2 and playing Tyus as the back up point guard. We did that last night and were competitive against a tough Memphis team in their gym. So why all of a sudden start Prince tonight, play Zach as the back up point guard (with Bazz and K-Mart at times which is absolutely ridiculous), and bench Tyus? It just makes no sense to me. This is the time for bigger picture thinking: what is best for the future of the team? But our team is being run by idiots.

Robin Lopez just bent us over tonight.

I get starting Prince, otherwise you have to put Wiggins on him and 'Melo will take him to the woodshed. 'Melo was very quiet in that first quarter, but Lopez absolutely destroyed us. That's ROBIN Lopez! Ugh.

What I don't understand is why he had LaVine play PG. After the last few games with Andre Miller and then Tyus and LaVine doing fairly well shooting the ball, Mitchell suddenly decides to go back to him as our backup? That didn't cost us the game, but it was a curious move by Sam.
