Terrible loss. We just cant execute down the stretch. Just post up towns! Why the fuck we go away from that every close game down the stretch! Towns has to find his way to points and touches while we rely on rose. Wiggins has lost all confidence. We have talent but we dont have that 2nd guy. Not sure we even have a 3rd! its a bunch of talented 4th-9th guys. Deflating loss.

By NBA standards we don't really have talent.

Andrew Wiggins may never replace Marbury as my most hated Wolves player ever, but he damn sure wants to replace Mike Miller as #2.

I think Ryan has done well considering the injuries so far, but he didn't have his best coaching night. Dario starts OT? You have to realize when he's off and not matching up with there small ball lineup. Also Taj only playing 11 mins, WTF is that? If the Deng injury is serious that will be a big blow he was making winning plays since getting a chance.

Deng is now the injury that is going to sink us!!! Lol. That solidifies my previous post. And I actually agree with you, Deng's injury does hurt us. Which states how poorly constructed this roster really is.

I didn't watch the game, but Jon K said Taj should have played more as well on Twitter. He was -10 in 11 minutes. I guess I'm just confused because the box score definitely doesn't match what's been said a couple times.

I was quiet after the last few games, but was shaking my head about everyone wanting to keep our guys like Tyus, Taj, and Rose. I'm not saying we have the flexibility to do much better but man bringing back this same roster next year is gonna put us in the same place. RoCo isn't savior, good player but on a playoff team he's a 5-6th guy.

I've done this too after games like this, saying so and so should of played more minutes. Taj has a nice stretch playing the back up 5, had a matchup he could exploit a bit as Pete mentioned. But what big difference is he gonna make playing with the starters down the stretch. He's your 5th option on the floor. Just because he scored well in the second qtr doesn't mean he's gonna effect the game down the stretch. I'll be the first to say I'm guilty of that also.

Guys, it's never as bad as it seems after a loss, and it's never as good as it seems after a win.
