Wow. That was TERRIBLE.

If we played like an average regular-season game right now, we'd be up 10. This is completely inexcusable. There have been some good defensive plays. Rudy and Naz in particular. But everything else has just been so terrible, especially on the offensive end.

WTF have these guys been DOING for the last week? Honestly, this has to reflect badly on the coaching too, which is normally such a strength for us.

Other than Draymond's outside shot, the Warriors have been bad too. This game is an embarrassment in a second round that has been amazing so far.

Yeah God forbid Finch see if someone else van buy a bucket since clearly these guys cant

Randle is playing like an asshole. And yes he's tired.

It looks like Finch let them go to Cancun a week early.

Finch needs to play some rookies!

We need to shake things up bad.




Point Rudy. Lets go!

Abe's Almost Real Time DVR Review:
(halftime)

- Two delays early. No flow. Most the of missed three pointers aren't even close to going in.

- Randle seems skittish and is making dumb decisions.

- Speaking of skittish, the Wolves shooters are afraid to shoot threes right now. They're pressing. Badly. Just shoot in rhythm.

- I spoke about the Jonathon Kuminga experience from Game 7 vs. Houston. He messed up nearly every time down the court. Well... here we go! Loses ball on layup attempt. Loses Randle on switch for a layup. Misses layup on other end. More millions gone.

- Edwards doesn't even want the ball.

- Wolves on a 7 - 62 run from three. (11%)

- Brough back A LOT of old-school Timberwolves memories. ... ... unfortunately.

Bonus: I disagree with almost everything Charles Barkley says. It's pretty funny how long of a run they've had.

If we don't come out looking any better on offense might as well toss TSJ out there for some million mile an hour drives to the basket.

It is interesting how it's possible every single 2nd round home team will lose the first game of the series to a team coming off a more grueling first round series. Stan Van Gundy might be onto something about the rhythm of the NBA and playing every other night is really not that big of a deal to these guys.

Still, that was beyond "we're a little rusty" level of ineptitude on offense. Still no made 3's, which is incredible when that is a team strength!

I can't agree on Finch. This is not on him, this is totally on the players.
