That was absolutely pathetic. Giving up 122 points to the Magic? Come on. It is unacceptable to give up 71 points in a half to the team with the *checks notes* 26th ranked offense in the NBA.
While it was a putrid performance from the Timberwolves, it provided us with clarity. Most of us knew that the Timberwolves weren’t a playoff squad. They entered the night four games back of the 8th seed, and clearly struggling. There was little hope for a legitimate playoff run.
Unfortunately, the front office didn’t know that.
