BAMBA looks much better than I thought he would

Let’s not forget that BAMBA is a chess player.

Kind of mind boggling how little Towns touches the ball on offense. He just isn't used in any way. Teague-Rose-Wiggins-Butler just take turns calling their own number. Almost impossible to have a worse perimeter cast to optimize Towns really

Laker fans should be rooting for NOP to miss playoffs. That would make AD trade more likely right?

Indeed. Towns is much better than a bishop obv but yeah, Thibs offense is definitely the French defense. Maybe it works but it's just an ugly, clogged mess.

refs mostly kind of invisible in Toronto, but now down the stretch they've called fouls on like 16 straight possessions and pissed everyone off, good stuff

Taj Gibson looks completely worthless. They get him switched onto Demar it's just 2 automatic points. Aldridge is killing him on the glass. They can just leave him to deny Towns the ball too.

Pretty ******ed argument. If you watch any basketball you’d know that he is a completely inefficient scorer who is one of the worst rebounders for his size in the nba, is incable of setting up other players to score, and is one of the 5 worst defenders in the nba. Add in the fact he makes $30 million a year, and you have one of the worst player, contract situations maybe in the history of the league.

Can’t believe I’m going to say this, but Teague has been the best player for the wolves tonight.

Mostly i'm frustrated that his shot selection is so much worse than it was pre-Thibs.
