Bounced in first round in 6
Also never want to see Z again
I think I’d rather cut and take the dead cap and play 4 on 5 than continue to sit through Ziaire minutes. Dude is dog ass.
Heartbroken. We had this shit.
Konchar +14 in a 15 pt loss, I’m still a member of the Jitty comittee and think he should be out there more
Good effort for the most part. The whistle is demoralizing tho.
Feel like Jenkins is missing the point here—GG deserves minutes even if his shot isn’t falling in the first few. He doesn’t need to foul Trip out by not playing him. They aren’t going to the playoffs. They tried their hardest and got decimated in the 4th by a good team. Just get your guys reps and opportunities. You were never going to win this game.
Tough ending but good game overall. Santi and Jaren dunks were hype.
Feel like VWJ struggled a bit on defence tonight, struggled to keep in front of Edwards
Great performance against the supposed best team in the West + some of the most one-sided officiating that I’ve seen this year.
Time to feast on some Eastern Conference teams.
Great effort by the team. Pathetic refjob. Yes it was a SEGABABA for the wolves but they’re in the same time zone and very close to Detroit.
Trip went off. Refs have to stop this bullshit with ticky tack fouls. He makes about 3 stupid fouls a game and refs give him 2 bullshit ones. And he never gets to the line when he’s getting clobbered.
I hope Ed Malloy finds no joy in this life or the next
Honestly can’t fault the effort from the boys since everyone has gone down. Kinda liking the outlook for the rest of the season, no expectations just develop the guys.
I wish TJ would’ve challenged that 5th foul call on JJJ, but a great showing again from hospital squad
There was 0% chance we were winning this game. The refs pre determined it. They hoped that they didn’t have to make it as obvious as they did. Memphis was playing well so they had to take the matters in their own hands. But it was very clear after that non Rudy Gobert flagrant review in the second, which would have been an ejection, that something was fishy.
It’s tough to accept but the nba is an entertainment company with incentives.
Good effort against a good team.
15/21 and 6/7 from 3 in the 4th. Crazy.
Also Z being -26 in just 12 minutes feels almost like par for the course at this point. Stuff just falls completely apart way too often when he’s out there.
We could’ve beat them and after watching them this game, the Timberwolves are not that good and weren’t looking like a #1 seed team against us
dont really care how its done but Ziaire should be off this roster completely by next season.
Whatever at least we kept it close till the end
I just want Pete and Brev back on the call
Jenkins was doing a good job coaching just to shit the bed in the 4th qtr, tired of seeing people say “starters can’t play all 48min” or “our main players are injured” he should’ve combined minutes of Z, gilyard and GG with the others instead of putting all 3 of them on the court at the same time, and he decided to do that shit at the start of the 4th qtr to make it worse
Jaren is growing into a monster. Game was a wrap once he got into foul trouble. We made it a game bit couldn’t sustain it. Top five pick is on the way plus a healthy squad means trouble for the rest of the league. On to the next
I feel like 90% of the Z stuff goes away if he’s not the primary ball handler. There are guys that we should try to get to handle more. For instance, Vince should be given some possessions with a bench lineup even with a healthy roster. Z however is not a ball handler and needs to stop.
That game was officiated completely differently in the first and second halves.
Jaren balled out just wish he could’ve played more, would’ve had his career high for sure.
Admirable effort by the guys. Defintely made them sweat the first 3 quarters and caused them to lock in the fourth. Shoulda lost by like 27.
Jaren in foul trouble killed any chance of winning this game and some of those were ticky tack as hell. And with him being our only main guy, what are you going to do
The broadcast was annoying as hell, Jaren was cooking all game in the post and got less love than routine catch and shoot 3s from Minnie. He played well give him respect he dunked on Gobert twice
Been through worse, we actually had some offensive threat against them this game unlike the first two
What do you guys think we do with X? He’s an expiring and there’s no spot really for him on the roster for next season, say the deadline comes and a contender offers a couple 2nds for him would you take that?
It’ll never happen, but if we could poach Naz Reid one of these days, that would be awesome. He’s basically what we want one of Z, Roddy, and Jake to develop into
Jaren only having 5 FTs after living in the paint like we all want him to is a travesty and most likely why we don’t see this as much
Really down on Santi this season. He’s had a couple good games and been injured a lot, but his decision making pisses me off. He’s got too much of an ego and tries to 1v1 better players to the detriment of the team consistently.
Santi is amazing when he is running the break, spotting in the corner of cutting baseline for the lob. I don’t want to see him doing anything else.
Tillman at the top of the key worked surprisingly well during different stretches
Overall I’m not mad. Gg
Edwards is cold, man. What a baller
Jaren was amazing. Unfortunately when you don’t have much to work with, winning against a team like the Wolves is hard
GG Grizzlies fans! JJJ was a monster tonight! Hoping you guys can turn your season around! To put up such a fight while being so short-handed is incredibly impressive you guys have a great squad
