Can we please get a stop

Being out rebounded by 10....... we need to get better in this area or we will continue to lose.

MGH with a solid stint there defending. It felt like he got the Belly treatment with foul calls.

Dieng has to beat his guy to the boards more than he has in this game. Maybe he has done his job and Ed Davis has been really good this year but man...it's not just Dieng but it's frustrating.

Pro tip:

If you see Zach Collin last in your area and you are trying to score find him. He will foul you. Lol

Jamal Crawford's hot shooting is keeping us in this game. It's not pretty to watch, in my opinion, but it sure has been effective this quarter.

Monster, why do you feel it necessary to find some kind of positive for Wiggins? He sucks - at both ends. No debate about it.

That was a travel by Butler by the way on that fast break dunk off of Crawford's steal, but they ain't calling that.

He literally seems like he could give a shit less about what happens in the game as long as he can get his 20 shots of which 15 being long twos that he consistently clanks over and over. I would deal wiggins if you can get some quality back before we cant get anything for him. I cant stand watching him play.

As much as I hate watching Wiggins, there is no positive outcome in dealing him right now. We would get so little value for him with that contract upcoming. The time was last offseason (which I and many others were calling for - and many others were saying we were wrong to say such). I blame Thibs just as much as Wiggins. Thibs thought process makes zero sense to me. Can he not see what everyone else in the world sees? If Wiggins kept clanking those long twos, I'd yank him and give him an ear full. Shoot the 3 or hit the rack, oh and play defense. If you don't you can make 25 million sitting on your ass and be the laughing stock around the league.

Disagree on his defense in this game. Sorry.

C'mon, a left-handed straight on bank shot by McCollum!? That is ridiculous. I know he's good, but c'mon!

I mean, he's been guarding Aminu most of the game, or Turner. Not too difficult to defend that. What else has he done on defense that has impressed?
