But watching how they've played these last three games against really good teams, and I was reading in one of the articles this morning, they haven't beaten a winning team in 25 days.

That is an indication, and that, unfortunately, is a bad indication of where they are right now.

And I think you and I kind of believe that they are a playoff battle-tested team, and maybe that's what they're waiting for.

But these last three games were...

really a disaster for them.

And I got to wonder where their confidence is right now against these good teams.

Yeah, I mean, especially when you're talking about the confidence of Carl Anthony Towns because you see him last night.

He looked a little bit disengaged when there was a huddle going on and he was outside of it.

And I've been all over his case, but it's not all about him.

It really isn't.

It's about the utilization of him.

And Mike Brown's biggest failure

has been trying to figure out how to get the best out of Carl Anthony Towns.

And this was not a bad game for him last night.

He wasn't getting the basketball at all in the first half when they're getting smacked around.

He's not taking any threes in the first half.

You need to use every part of this guy's game if you're going to win a championship.

And I'm being fair.

There's a lot of things that he does that drive me crazy.

But I truly believe that the reason why he's having a subpar year for him has more to do with the fact with the head coach than it does with him.
