Wiggins has to get that rebound.

That last alley oop was a good illustaration of how hard it is for KAT or any big to defend on the Wolves. No one even came close to slowing Harden on his drive and no one came over to help. So KAT had to come out and get in his face while no one blocked out behind him to deny the pass.

Man do we have to worry about playoff Kat

I have literally seen our guys raked across the arms and just hammered with no calls. Hell i saw teague het grabbed by nene around the neck and slung to the floor so he couldnt get out on a three pointer for defense and no call. Then i watch harden get breathed on for 3 and its a foul. Its so fucking ridiculous

I know what you're saying Crazy and you're not wrong. But this is the NBA. To expect anything different just invites frustration. Took me a long time, but I've learned to accept it.

I don't know if Wiggins will ever improve his dribbling enough or get a consistent 3-point shot but I hope he at least puts in more effort adding muscle and watching his diet like Jim Peterson said a few games back, he could and should be much bigger and stronger.

What game are you watching?

I try to not get too wound up about officiating but this sucks. Butler seems to get the benefit of the doubt at least as a defender.

No we don't. We need to worry about an offense that features 1-on-1 two-point shooting. Note that nearly every shot all our players have taken has been hotly contested. Compare that to all the wide open completely uncontested threes the Rockets have had.

The officiating is infuriating. I wish I could blame our double-digit deficit primarily on the officiating, but I can't.

You just cant expect one team to get away with anything from traveling to hitting you on the arm and just not giving a shit knowing they wont get called for a foul and the other not being able to touch someone and expect them to win. I just saw a ref staring down eric gordon hooking wiggins to try to get by him on offense then wighins tried to grab him back after he hooked to get by and them gets his 3rd foul. Its one thing to beat a good team but the 98 bulls couldnt win with these damn calls
