It made me laugh, so I thought I’d share it.

This is going to be a fun game for Minnesota and the most difficult of the series so far. I expect it to be close, Durant putting up 40+ with Booker living at the line.

107-105

107-105

106-91 Wolves. Suns without Allen are gonna struggle all game long. They will get down big and quit.

This has the makings to be the most important game wolves cursed history. Win this and our first playoff series win in 20 years will be nearly guaranteed.

Yes, agree. Strike the iron while it's still hot. Lose the first one and the 2nd game will be twice as hard to win. Anyway we need to win one of two. Win both than we look forward to a KD/Booker trade in the summer (sorry Beal is untradable)

The sheer number of Suns fans complaining about Vogul not playing Bol Bol and Isaiah Thomas...

There is desperation and then there is Looney Tunes...

I think as long as they don't get behind early like they did in the regular season, then i think eventually the suns are gonna break.

No dumb turnovers or fouls from kat
Naz needs to hit some 3s
Someone else needs to spark the offense (jmac?)

I met up with a friend last night who has Wolves season tickets, and he said something that I thought was funny enough to share.

He said last Christmas, his sons got him a jersey of his favorite Timberwolves player: Jordan MacLaughlin!

He went on to say that the only other person that wears that jersey is probably the actual Jordan MacLaughlin! :lol:

I had a lot of fun reading the Suns' board. If we were down two games, it would be the exact conversation just sub in the player/coach names.

You know who the Suns could really use in their rotation?

It's better than any PG they have.

Would love to say back to Booker what he said to us last season.

"We play team basketball" :cool:

Look how “communicative” KD looks throughout this whole video!

True. You know, I would say the Wolves have four players that are better PG’s than anyone they have: Conley, Monte Morris, Jordan MacLaughlin and even Kyle Anderson. I think any of those guys would be big boosts to the Suns in one of their weakest areas.

Is it just me, I have a feeling this gonna be a Naz Reid coming out game. 8 pts per game so far ain't cutting it.

Their whole press conference they just seem defeated. Even to a point where it felt like they were getting agitated with some of the questions from the media.

This will be tough one. We can't expect that KD and Booker play the entire series at this level. They will have games at 30 +++. Hope we can play with the same intensity and go back home after getting one there. Go Wolves!
