Feels like a sweep is coming. These guys haven't shown any pride or grit so far, why start now?

If not this one then in game 4. A large part of me wants to be put out of the misery of this season and see what’s next

I just want to say, here at what is almost certainly the end of a disappointing season, I'm glad all you bums are here to commiserate with about all of it. I really enjoy reading and talking with all of you guys. I wish we had something happier to post about right now, but, them's the breaks. Maybe next year!

I hope Vogel tries playing some other guys tonight. Let Okogie (who was great in game 3), Bol, Little see the court. What have we got to lose?

You going over or under on 8 minutes for Isaiah Thomas tonight?

I kinda think we’re getting blown out and gonna see a lot of IT/Bol/Roddy. Little will probably hit 2 threes and have a couple dunks giving us a small sliver of hope he can be a player for us.

I feel conflicted, on one hand Id like to not get swept by Rudy fuckin Gobert but also Id like a mercy kill on this season so we can start the cleanse.

I swear it would be the most Vogel thing ever to roll out the same starting lineup and same rotations that have led to 3 blowout Ls.

If he has half a brain he'll throw Bol into the starting lineup or do something wild to try a different wrinkle and jumpstart this team.

Bench Nurk and go with KD and Thad as your front court, or put Bol in and start KD at the 5 and go 5 out on offense and just totally sell out on offense, or start Okogie instead of O'Neale to get some energy out there , do something DIFFERENT

I would go small. If the team looks like they always do, I’d just pull the plug early.

I get the feeling the players have tuned him out and mostly do what they want. If he’s really stressing shooting 3s and they won’t shoot them I’d just bench them. You’re getting fired anyways, go out with players that will listen.

I feel confident that our offense will come out firing on all cylinders because we have one of the best offensive assistant coaches in the NBA: Kevin Young. We're so lucky!

You really don't think they showed pride last game? I think the Wolves are just that much better and hungrier. I think the current Suns did the best they could do but it just isn't good enough.

I think this potential sweep killed our possible get together tonight? Maybe wait until happier times next season?

In some ways that is more depressing than they couldn’t be bothered trying really hard enough.

Honestly, I'm probably going to scan the thread during the game and check the score once or twice. I'm not going to waste my time actually watching the game tonight. I can't be bothered.
