H/T to Kyle Theige for the headline.
Tonight is another entry into one of our favorite Canis bits: Is this the worst loss since...?
The Wolves, facing an undermanned Memphis Grizzlies squad playing without Marc Gasol among many others, came out with no intent whatsoever, fell behind big, and despite making several runs, wound up losing 108-106. It was an absolute catastrophe of a loss, and reminds us just how far the Wolves are from being a seriously competitive basketball team.
It was a disaster from the start, with the Grizzlies running out to a 23-4 lead at one point, confusing the Wolves with their defensive looks, forcing turnovers, and finding the Wolves offering no resistance at the other end as Mike Conley sliced and diced them and Ivan Rabb and Jaren Jackson found plenty of space in the lane.
