  1. PatBev_Clamped_Ja

    Poor mike thought he was getting traded to a contender and he got this

  2. jchunk13

    Are we going to try? Or just get clowned for 4 straight games?

  3. Such-Chef9524

    The baggy ass shorts are great, I kinda unironically want them back

  4. Iron_Bob

    So are we going to blame being tired again because we’ve played too many games or do we admit that we suck?

  5. We suck. But at least we never have to see these jerseys again

  6. This game is hard enough without us being dumbfucks.

    It’s unwinnable if we keep being boneheads.

  7. SurlyWet

    They are better than us. Ant is in his own world on offense. Definition of sticky.

  8. Synth_Destroyer

    Lol remember when before the game Jim Pete said “there’s no way towns has a performance like that again”

  9. DavidCreeper

    lol Rudy at the free throw line guarding air

  10. wink91wink

    Don’t worry guys, McLaughlin will probably be in after the commercial break

  11. DiabolicalToast

    I see nothing has changed from last game. Embarrassing defense and KAT looking completely lost.

  12. placated

    Pretty clear we aren’t even close to the same caliber of talent and playmaking ability as Denver. Just get the sweep over with.

  13. Y’all are miserable lol. Smoke a blunt and chill a bit

  14. MasterScooby11

    I’m in the trade KAT boat but still want him to succeed, like cmon man

  15. NYCWolves

    This may go down as the least competitive playoff series in history

  16. PlayInChampions

    Gobert is in the paint with Jokic deeply there and he passes to the corner to a non-shooter. Jokic will score 1000000/1000000 from there.

    Every single time we miss they score. Every single time, unless they have to inbound. They rebound or steal – open shot.

  17. unwinagainstable

    come on boys, give us some competitive ball to watch

  18. Mistrbontits

    Gotta be up at 5 for work, glad the wolves have been shitting the bed early this series so I can still go to bed by 10:00

  19. SakeOfPete

    Cannot believe we gave the super max to kat after last year’s playoff performance

  20. Flow does not work well with this roster, just not enough BBIQ out there to play well together.

  21. pandasunited7

    Seems like Finch really came in with no game plan. Just iso after iso, no action off screens or anything

  22. It’s crazy how much more fun the post season was last year.

  23. VikingsandWolves

    Went from the number 1 offense post ASB last year to whatever the fuck offense this is. So undecisive and hesitant. Last year was all aggression YOLO

  24. JamesDHoward22

    Kat needs to figure his shit out. Looks effing lost out there.

  25. This team kinda sucks let’s be honest. Lucky to be an 8 seed.

  26. AlexeyShved1

    If we get swept do we finally get rid of Finch and get someone who knows how to draw up an offense?

  27. Have towns and Ant ever played well in the same game?

  28. Falconsbane

    Conley the only one that looks somewhat competent on this team right now.

  29. SlimReaperSlinky21

    Haven’t ever seen a more ineffective star than Kat in the playoffs. He might as well be a bench player. Your star is supposed to slow the game down, but he’s just ghost.

    Not looking good. At least we can go to bed early again 🤧

  30. PatBev_Clamped_Ja

    That charles barkley ad is uncanny valley and it looks horrible

  31. AbyssalBlade18

    FrEe FlOw OfFeNsE wOrKs 🥴 fire Finch lol

  32. EsotericPotato

    This series will straight up not be watchable if Ant and KAT continue to play like this.

    Im on the east coast. If they look like they still at halftime, I’m prolly turning the game off and not looking back the rest of this series. It’s just not woeth staying up until 12-1am every night to watch them go out so pathetically.

  33. Pippyopi

    I want to hear more from the geniuses in this sub about how Finch’s claim was a good thing when he said that the team’s mood hadn’t changed after game 1. Downvote me some more. This team needs a fire lit under them.

  34. guydudebro

    Ant was talking about getting punked by DEN last game. He hasn’t done much defensively to stop that tonight

  35. Let’s not kid ourselves KAT and Ant are not a playoff level duo

    the number of mental mistakes they make on both ends is staggering

  36. Lol this is why I wanted anyone besides nuts and suns. They strait up toy with us.

  37. funkstrong

    Do we just not have smart enough players for a “flow” offense? Like would this squad perform better if we had a regimented style?
