So... they've quit?

Back-to-back games against teams battling for playoff spots are tough... especially when a team travels for the second game for a one-day road trip.

But the team is giving up 114 ppg this month. 122 this week. (granted, a tough slate of games this week) Memphis scored 96+ for only the 2nd time in 7 games.

No league is known for teams "conceding" more than the NBA. Have the Wolves joined other teams that are mailing it in at this point? Should they?



[Note: I guess the next two games will be a pretty good indicator... Atlanta and LA at home.]

Well, considering we haven't played defense all season, I'm not sure last night was anything new...

I still don't know what the coaching staff is trying to do with the rotations. Is that a form of tanking? Throwing out different substitution patterns every game?

The defense is even worse that it was.

As for tanking... there's really nowhere for the Wolves to go right? They're pretty much set at #13.

And speaking of that, Philly just dropped it's 25th straight. This season has been a joke. Shouldn't they have to forfeit their pick just for losing 15 in a row?

Meanwhile, the Spurs quietly go about winning 15 in a row and another dominant season. Props again to Pop! The only good thing about this season.
