Boy I'm glad we have such a defensive genius that has taught our team to defend the 3 point shot.

We are getting our asses handed to us by a 9-24 team on our home court. Time to fire Thibs.

Boy I'm glad we have such a defensive genius that has taught our team to defend the 3 point shot. He has no clue. I'm wondering if our game plans going in are an issue. Once again we just didn't come to play against a bad team. Our guys just don't give a bleep on defense anywhere on the court. Rose and Wiggins have been particularly bad. 42 pts in the 1st qtr?? Now down by 20.
This team is exasperating.

Tyus and KAT are the only guys wuys who came to play. Tyus 8 pts 3 steals on 4 of 4 fld. Atta baby Tyus.
I think we're finally see a little bit of effort creeping in from the starters.
Lastly, what has happened to Covington?

As soon as I mention Cov he hits 2 three's.

The only redeeming quality is Atlanta is so bad. Even with a 20 pt lead they likely lose. Any other team and this game is done.

We are letting Trae frickin Young, a rookie frickin point guard, have his way penetrating our defense. Absolutely embarrassing. No resistance whatsoever.

Rose, Cov and Towns are putting on a show. Wolves down 5.

Our Wolves quadrupled their dismal effort to tie it up after 3. At least we have a team that's trying. Towns has been on fire. Cov too.

Derek Rose without question has been a positive difference maker for this team. Just as long as you keep him reigned in a bit and keep the hero ball out of it he's terrific.
When we acquired him I thought he was washed up. I don't think he's ever been a better team member.
Now that he doesn't have to go all out and carry a team, he might stay healthy.

Dario Saric is a damn smart unselfish player. Great passer.
We've missed 12 freakin free throws tonight.

We do not deserve to win this game at all. This has been a sloppy performance against one of the worst teams in the league.

Overtime against a 9-24 team. Thibs should be fired immediately after this loss.

Wigs 4 of 10 from the line. MN 18 of 34 from the line. It could cost us this game.

Wiggins is guarantee to choke when the game is on the line. No killer instinct.

We shot 18 more free throws than Atlanta and might lose. That's almost impossible.

Why didn't Okogie just shoot the freakin 3?! He had the shot. Then he tries to draw contact and get to the line with no call.
A fitting end. I'm just beside myself with this team. Some change has to be made....like the coach.
Great effort by Towns though. He even missed two ft's late.

Every team recognizes we don't defend the perimeter so they come in blazing with the 3. Thibs can't/won't see that. We were beat in other areas too. We got outrebounded by 11 and outscored in the paint by 8.
Once again their points seemed to come easier than ours. We usually have to fight like hell for a basket.
John Collins the guy I liked in the draft a couple of years ago hurt us tonight.

Why was Wiggins even in the game... Didn't realize that paycheck means you get guaranteed minutes even if you're choking and single handedly costing us a win. He had one point in the final 5 minutes and overtime combined.. And missed every clutch free throw he could've. How about a coach that holds their lineups accountable?.... No? We're just gonna keep mashing puzzle pieces together even if they don't fit? Alright Thibs.. Whatever man..

Thibs late game: "We stick to the plan!"
Literally everyone with half a brain: "..But the plan isn't working, Wiggins is cold, shouldn't we adju--"
Thibs: "WE STICK TO THE PLAN!!"
Glen: "Ohh it's fine, mediocrity is what we strive for, this is normal"
God that ****ing lifeless angry curmudgeon needs to find the nearest snowbank and bury his head there until it's frozen solid and Glen along with him.

Wiggins post game comments about the boos sum up everything I can't stand about him. It's someth8ng that just didn't need to be said given how poor he played.

Fun comeback, although it sucks that we lost. I knew that Wiggins would choke at the end; he is just a terrible player.
