We can't win a game reffed this way. Murray with 11 FT's, and the Wolves with 11. So many of the call on Murray were ticky tack.

I saw Jaden grabbing at that knee again in the 2nd quarter. Terrible sign.

If Murray gets 11 FTAs in a half... Doncic or SGA would get 20.

Zach Zarba is a solid official. This crew is officiating this like a regular season game on a back-to-back. I'd prefer they let em play. Obviously.

Tie game with bad knees and shoulders on the Wolves... and Gobert having an A game vs. Jokic so far. I'm anxious about the 2nd half.

Let's hope it's just a habit. He looked very good on Murray...Ayo, not so much

Hyland has to make his layups. 11 Minutes for Randle is about right.

Thats true, but the bench unit really stunk it up there and to be honest I think Finch kinda hung em out to dry with his rotations. That been a major difference so far to me

I think the refs are screwin us a bit with the ticky tack calls, but also our defense is not great either.

It hurts us because we are by far the more physical team. Jaden and Ant attacked the basket like Jokic wasn't even there.

She called it when Edwards played into Denver's hands by overdribbling and looking for his own shot instead of moving the ball from side to side to where Divincenzo was standing wide open.

I wonder how Edwards would have fared with a guy like Popovich. I think they would have had a unique and solid relationship, but with many sleepless nights for Pop.

I would have liked to have seen TJ get some minutes there when our backups were struggling to score.
