[Game] Kings @ Timberwolves - Monday, Dec. 17 - 5PT/8ET

[White_Chocolate]

I don't mind losing this one. I expected we would lose last night so this is fine. Our bench is pretty shallow now that Bagley and Shump are out. Hell put Z-Bo in haha

 

[chief bromden]

Was that really a goaltend?

 

[TaxMan]

Sorry. Not a goal tend. But not sure why I care at this point.

 

[Tetsujin]

Why was Frank ever playing ahead of Yogi?

 

[parker]

Williams may not be the answer

But he’s motor is only rivaled by Bagley. If WCS ever had have the motor he would be avg 2-3 blocks a game

He may have the motor, but nobody is steering the motor.

 

[chief bromden]

Thibs still yelling at KAT when they are up 33, hah man that’s rough

 

[SLAB]

Lol Covington running into Giles

MEMO TO TIMBERWOLVES FANS:

When you're chanting MVP while your starters are playing against the bottom of the roster of your opponent, you might want to rethink your reasoning.

 

[TaxMan]

Skal running in slow motion.

They were chanting MVP to Okage (sp) I believe. They’re allowed to have goofy fun in a blowout.

 

[VF21]

I have seen enough to understand why Skal is generally nailed to the end of the bench. He's showing minimal effort at a time when he should really be trying to prove he can have some worth.

Oh good. It's Benny-Mac time.

 

[Tetsujin]

Grant always obsessed with numbers

 

[SacTownKid]

I've never seen a coach do this I don't think. Never.

 

[Kingz19]

“Wait and see in the second half..”

Have fun with that Doug

 

[White_Chocolate]

Well good night folks. Hope Giles plays well

 

[VF21]

They were chanting MVP to Okage (sp) I believe. They’re allowed to have goofy fun in a blowout.

I had no idea who they were chanting for.

 

[The Hammer]

Alright I'm officially over it. Scheduled loss.


We don't have more than one day off a week prior or a week after this particular back to back. Think about it. Our schedule before this run here had multiple multi day breaks. That was a good thing. I'm fine with our main guys getting a rest here with OKC around the corner and no let up in scheduling after that. Perfect game for the b team to get some burn.

 

[rainmaker]

Dave's got a big heart.

He's allowing the bench to showcase themselves to get larger contracts in the Chinese Basketball Association.

 

[SacTownKid]

I feel like Joerger is making this a statement game. I'm just not quite sure the statement. Weirdly, I think I like the statement though.


*It's like a very very very subtle **** you to his players..... WHO ARE THE ONES TO BLAME FOR THIS LOSS."

Honestly it's a pretty boss ass coach move.

I know this will be a trigger to some but did the team tune him out after the whole comment thing from yesterday?

 

[VF21]

I've never seen a coach do this I don't think. Never.

Do what? You want him to put the starters back out there and risk injury in a game like this?

 

[TaxMan]

I have seen enough to understand why Skal is generally nailed to the end of the bench. He's showing minimal effort at a time when he should really be trying to prove he can have some worth.

Oh good. It's Benny-Mac time.

I think at this point, skal is at best a young big with “potential” that we can throw into a trade with our enders.

 

[Cojc]

Turn out the lights the party’s over!

Well glad I would not have to watch this one because I won’t get home for another hour.

 

[Kingsfan23]

Have to say I’m personally disappointed in Giles/Skal’s progression from summer. Skal really grew a body, and I thought he was coming. Giles has just had a rough start

 

[VF21]

I know this will be a trigger to some but did the team tune him out after the whole comment thing from yesterday?

OMFG. Read the thread about his comment today. OR continue to make totally unsubstantiated comments. Your choice. It's not a trigger, by the way. It's a reaction to a ridiculous comment.

 

[TaxMan]

I've never seen a coach do this I don't think. Never.

A little hyperbole maybe?

 

[The Hammer]

I know this will be a trigger to some but did the team tune him out after the whole comment thing from yesterday?

I missed that, link?

 

[VF21]

Turn out the lights the party’s over!

Drive carefully.

 

[TaxMan]

What was that Ben?

 

[SacTownKid]

Do what? You want him to put the starters back out there and risk injury in a game like this?

Probably not now, but they weren't down 50, or even 30 at that point. Usually, even Joerger gives it another shot. Actually this is about as un-Joerger as you can get. He's the coach that will stick with a failing unit after a time out and give them a few more plays to work it out.

 

[VF21]

I think at this point, skal is at best a young big with “potential” that we can throw into a trade with our enders.

So, like Ben but "young big" instead of "young guard"?
