We have now won 11 of the last 13. Does that make you happy or sad? Im sincerely curious.

On the other hand, to create a lead like that so you survive a shooting drought, wonderful!Pretty much lucky this game. Give up a lead like that. Crappy.

Guys. We will not win every game. We will not play perfect every game. We will not always have energy every game. We will make mistakes. We will make unforced errors. Just like each one of us in our lives. Deal with it. Enjoy the ride.

There was a lid on the basket that entire 4th quarter for the whole team. So many times the ball just somehow rolled off on layups for Mitchell. He’s got to sprinkle in some midrange shots. Teams are so worried about his drive he could get a wide open 15ft shot whenever he wants it.Mitchell went from like 6/12 at the end of the third to 7/24 at the end of the game.
Weshot fairly well till the 4th. At one point we were 1-16 in the 4th. That will destroy any decent shooting %Don't win a lot shooting under 40%. Happy to escape with a win.
That was an extremely pathetic victory...but better a pathetic victory than a moral one.
I will say that while I can't stand that this team seems to not be able to step on the throat of teams often enough, they did have a 20+ point lead that allowed them to escape with the win. That does count for something.
Are you freaking kidding? Of course it makes me happy lol. Just because I've been pessimistic about how the season has gone it doesn't mean that I don't want the team to be successful. I want my pessimism to be proven wrong in the worst way. I will happily feast on that crow like it's Thanksgiving if it happens.
Sure we are missing some guys, but Minnesota is an NBA team (were on a 3 win streak too) and are fighting for a playoff spot in the tough West. Nights like last night will happen sometimes regardless. And they happen to every team, even the warriors.I think we're feeling the effects of not having Exum (or somebody like that). Our backcourt just lacks firepower. I think our bench lacked the firepower to put Minny away in that late 3rd early 4th and once Minny got hope it took everything from our starters to squeeze this one out. Another 5-10 pts from Exum especially when giving our starters break time probably would've resulted in an easier victory.
