Just end the game healthy and onto Minnesota.

Honestly, wouldn't be popular, but might be a ballsy wise choice. Throw in the bench guys and just get some rest. Maybe it will embarrass them a little as well.

We want Wemby to have to play as much as possible. This is a long series! We can still get little wins along the way even if we lose the game. Also we need Ant to find his legs and get into a rythym again. So there are things to play for that serve us in the long run.

Exactly. Also what is the upside of embarrassing them, can’t think of one. This is the playoffs they are probably mad at themselves for the poor first half

If it were the middle of the 3rd quarter, I'd call it out of hand.

You sir, are a saint. 35 pts in one half, down by 24, im ready to go to sleep. I hope your faith is rewarded Saint Q

My Mom would be proud!

I don't think we're going to win, but like I said in the other post, I think there are reasons for the Wolves to keep competing in this game.

not even about embarrassing them. I don't want Ant tryna challenge a basketball down 23 and then his knees start barking. Ayo just looks rusty.

FWIW, I'd keep Randle and JMac til they foul out.

I also don’t think they will win but this team rarely just lays down and dies in big games

How did that work he got attacked every possession of defense

Remember that mjs34 predicted we'd win 42 games, lose in the play-in, and that Rudy could easily be replaced by Joan, yet here is complaining about Finch when we're up 1-0 in the Conference Semis, LOL.

Weren't you the one talking up Shannon? Rudy is getting his ass handed to him and is afraid to dunk the ball.

If we had the injuries our opponents had throughout the season we would have been sitting at 42 wins.

There is 30 mil of salary that you are forgetting on having Joan in for Rudy, but not surprising you would over look that.

As hard as it might be for you to admit, we aren't watching this game tonight without Rudy in the Denver series. He also did a hell of a job against Wemby in game 1.

I've talked Shannon up and I've talked him down. He's been a frustrating and exhilarating player to me at the same time.

You need to spend some time with BeenLurkin. He's very open-minded about a coaching change and will calmly listen to your arguments.

That’s fair. (Even though I slightly disagree what is fine) And I get that take, I guess I had more of the issue of embarrassing them. (What you didn’t say)

Just find a way

The energy has been off tonight. Kind of reminds me of game 1 against Denver.
