ANT with 48....WOW. Of course, it's in another LOSS. He's the only reason to watch this team.

He's definitely one of those fall out of bed, score 25 kinda guys. Reminds me a little of Carmelo in that way.

If Wiggins played like he does against MN now back when he played for MN, he’d be a star

Wiggins has a hiccup here and there where he looks like a decent player but returns to his normal starter fringe bench player role.

Yep.

His other option is get traded 29 more times.

Lone Wulf · 11-11-2021, 10:49 AM

All I can really say at this point is thank goodness for Anthony Edwards. The kid is going to be the real deal and fun to watch for years to come, glad the Wolves have him to make things fun while they continue to be mediocre year after year.

Also have to shout-out Naz Reid. He has been my favorite player this year after Edwards.

If he could just get traded 10 more times thru the western conference then he'd give full effort in at least half his games and could be an all-star.

The guys is lazy as eff. If he gave consistent effort he would've been an all-star years ago.

Such a bad take, uff, this is the usual undeserved sh*t. In a wolves thread that is trashing the wolves franchise. He just needed to get out of that hellhole. I know it is tough for you melon heads to put two and two together. Leave Wigs alone, he has been very consistent in his career and a nice slow progression.

As far as his laziness, this is so wrong. I don't know where you people get off saying this. Ive covered this elsewhere and am done with it.

Can't wait for this bad boy to arrive. Nice timing.

Beating LA doesn’t give the satisfaction it once did.

oldgoldy97 · 11-14-2021, 10:25 AM

Charmin with a stinker. Can’t expect the “franchise player” to be good every night

oldgoldy97 · 11-16-2021, 04:56 AM

They’ve improved their defense by becoming offensively horrible.

Another putz of a head coach.

burke23 · 11-16-2021, 10:33 AM

This team is so frustrating to watch. Some talent but can’t get it to gel for 48 consistently.

Lone Wulf · 11-16-2021, 10:53 AM

Yeah, this year is super frustrating. The offense just looks broken, there is no movement so much of the time, so many 5 foot passes to another player around the 3 point line that isn't generating anything, or else Ant is driving and not getting foul calls into 4 enemy defenders.

I think the main part that hurts is that people thought this roster, with some extra experience and new coach, was finally ready to take a step forward and at least be able to contend for the playoffs, but now it is clear that is not happening. Too many things are not working and the top 3 talent never want to have good games on the same date. At this point I am just watching for fun and hoping for some exciting plays.

I have to stay off the Timberwolves subreddit too now, it is so toxic, every game is just non-stop bashing. KAT gets a day off from people screaming for him to be traded because he had a good game plus birthday at least.

oldgoldy97 · 11-18-2021, 04:20 AM

Nice win against a bad team.

It seems quite a bit of NBA media (Zach Lowe, Ryen Russillo, Haralabos V., etc) have high praise for Finch. I'm personally not saying he's terrible or great, but probably too early to tell in either case. ATM I'd take Finch over Saunders who seemingly was way in over his head. Time will tell I guess...

LOL!!!
I watched almost every game that trash playerd for five and a half years. He is THE biggest disappointment in the entire NBA. Soooo much talent wasted. He was pretty consistently lazy. He'd play maybe 20 games a year with good effort.

Great synopsis.

Piping in on a night when Wiggins had as many TOs as threes, steals, assists, blocks and rebounds combined?
