Another terrible finish.  The guys looked gassed.  Poor substitutions.

Obviously we don't have any depth this game, but Romeo is an eyepopping -31 this game.  He's still played 36 mins.  Might have been a good idea to play Parker or someone else a little more.

Why is Parker nailed to the bench when we need points.

Nice game Pritchard.

I’m with you in this, specially after his nice effort vs the Bucks. Juancho was terrible.

missed free throws with missed open shots killed them.

the defense at the end was all right, but the ball bounced poorly for them.

oh well.

That would have required the coach to make a call and some adjustments, so yeah, not happening.

Why doesn't Parker play?

Horrific, embarrassing loss.  I’ll keep watching, but this is last year revisited.  I thought it would be different. But it isn’t.  I’m on board with major changes. This team’s got nothing.

Yeah, this was really bad - possibly the worst loss of the season based on talent disparity (of which Minny had almost none). No reason Jaylen Brown shouldn't have completely lit this game up.

Romeo sucked big time on offense -31.

Our protocol signings are useless if they can’t even play a few minutes to rest the other guys. I mean if guys like Greg Monroe could contribute for Minny…sigh.

Wyc should be publicly apologizing for this joke of a performance.

Bad D? I dunno man. Your guess is as good as mine.

I'm not convinced McLaughlin is an NBA caliber player.  Apparently still good enough to run a team of scrubs that can beat the Celtics.

was thinking the same thing about Jaylen when the game started.  total misuse of JB --> should have made him the focus of scoring, not ball distribution.  didn't help that this whole team was laying brick tonight in terms of opening up the lane for drives but JB's strengths are as a scorer/finisher rather than a ball distributor
