are you thinking that wasn't the shot
With 10 seconds still left? Yeah, I think we could have gotten a better look
I think Kat was frustrated that he only had 2 shots in the last 15 minutes. So he was like this is the best look I'm going to get.
Games like these make me worried about Kat on the wolves long term because of the lack of talent on the roster

Also 2nd straight game where a coach was able to take Kat out of the game late with 0 adjustments from Ryan
Be careful. Criticizing Ryan Saunders is a sin on this forum.
PS: Why no timeout prior to Towns taking that unnecessary deep three? Come on.

KAT chucked that but Wiggins passed him up with a horrible spin move the possession before. It was all selfishness down the stretch. Horrible.
I was yelling at my TV as that play unfolded. Towns could not have been any more open and Wiggins just missed him. Multiple guys got tunnel vision late in this game.

so . . .
Bad loss.
No flow at all with the offense. Virtually every player we had on court with the exception of Teague could have scored down low on their defender. Recognizing that and running sets for the best mismatch would have given us 120 pts on 55 percent shooting.
I'm a fan of analytics . . . but c'mon. We had a huge advantage inside . . .figure out sets to take advantage of that . . . 55 percent at the rim beats 25 percent from 3.
Asking Wiggins to guard Booker when he's in foul trouble is not that good of an idea.
Not complaining when we are getting fouled going to the basket 75 percent of the time is also a bad idea.

Yep. Massive tunnel vision. Kat was visually and verbally upset with his lack of touches late.
Even though I thought Wiggins was solid tonight nothing special, he shouldn't get more shots than Kat

I will say I'm happy that Keita Bates-Diop had a good game tonight. He showed up. Have to give him credit for staying ready and performing.

Easy to complain about a lot in this game, biggest issue for me is once again a wing player put in pick action or ISO against MN and they go off. We learned that Vonleh & KAT on the court seemed to be a failure, K. Martin isn't instant offense......at least not yet (more streaky thus far). KBD played really well, is he better than Layman?
