Ryan Saunders dissects his own performance after rough loss

Each time Wolves coach Ryan Saunders reviews game film it includes some self-evaluation of what Saunders himself could have done better.

"I'm critical of myself on every game," Saunders said. "I think that's how you have to be as a coach."

The volume from fans has turned up on Saunders as the Wolves have lost 10 of their last 11, including a game they should not have let get away Wednesday in a 97-96 loss to Orlando.

Saunders spent a significant portion of his media session Thursday answering for some of his late-game decisions, most notable the decision not to call a timeout when Jarred Vanderbilt grabbed a defensive rebound with the Wolves up two with 7.
