Off in the distance I can see the line between caring and not caring anymore. It seems to be coming into better focus. Well at least we have the draft to look forward to.................

We won't even remember this season if the Wolves are lucky enough to get Cade Cunningham. That's my hope for the rest of this season.

Even when DLO is back is hard to be outmatched at point guard ever single night.

Booker and Paul are so much more of upgrade from Rubio and Okogie. Compared to Towns to Kamanski. Basically the difference making towns makes up in his match up is not enough to overcome that.


Exactly. KAT has to work like hell just to get a post entry pass while Booker just sails around the court and off screens to squeeze off 15 footers which he can make blind-folded all night. Same thing with Beal. We've seen how easily Edwards can get a shot off. The difference is the other guys make them. But it is so much easier in today's NBA to take over a game as a perimeter player. Embiid and Jokic are exceptions and KAT isn't in their class.

Meh. He's definitely not in that tier this season, but he's been in that same tier or better than both of them at various parts in their careers. It's also tough to say that when those two have always had significantly more help than Towns has had. The situations are at completely different ends of the spectrum. Give Towns a Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris or a Jamal Murray and Paul Millsap plus depth. Towns got Jimmy Butler for a year and was a top-four seed for most of that season. Surround the guy with some fucking talent.

Wolves might have broken me. I might be taking a break. I think it's finally happened. Lost all reason to care about this team

Defenses can definitely load up on him...especially when he's on the court with 3 players that can't score
