If the Hawks are 1 game under .500 on that game, nails in the coffin for the Mavs

Respect to Russ
He has a crazy game like this every 10 weeks or so. It’s a one hot game every 10 week average. Word to Hov

Sam Presti rolling over in his grave, went and signed some dude named Jared Butler and bought back Olivier Sarr and the Thunder still keeping it close between play in or Wemby

Who is Kyrie going to play for next year? Is it too early to say that the Kyrie and Luka experiment is a failure?

 

[storm2006]

Interesting.

Kyrie could be maximized more (doesn't help that his foot is ailing), but the trade was more damaging than Kyrie (similar to the Westbrook trade). Gotta get really creative and frankly lucky this summer.

I swear whenever a big trade goes down the star plays poorly out the gate during the first game at home, let’s just hope it keeps on:

Interesting.

Scoring 92 points in back to back games in 2023.

Developing undrafted guys is cool and all, but eventually it catches up to you.

KD drops 20+ this half

I don’t know who Kyrie will play for but the player management during the Luka era has been extremely disappointing so far. They overachieved and made it to a WCF so I can’t say the era overall has been a failure. I guess it just dawned on my that this is only Kidd’s second full season so I’m not sure why folks are rushing to fire him. Would only make sense if a guy like Lue is available but even so, a head coach can only get so much out of this roster IMO.

Doris probably the most knowledgeable non-Wolves broadcaster about Minnesota's team.

 

[pmatic]

Things are really starting to coalesce for Minnesota. Roles are being figured out.

Playing with the flu gotta be the dumbest ******* thing. Let's just get everyone sick. And the announcers won't shutup about it either. You'd think America would have learned a lesson from Covid but I guess we all saw how well that's gone.

he really slowed down so he could low effort dunk on Eubanks

Have any of the players said anything about Kidd?

I don't think he's good, but firing him after their 2nd best player walked for nothing prior to the season, on top of making a major trade deadline move which shook up the roster, seems iffy.

Think he gets another year at least.

 

[ballinsam23]

Kidd shouldnt be fired.

The front office has been mismanaging trades and assets since Luka got drafted.

The female ref in this suns/wollves game has made back-to-back awful calls for offensive fouls...
