It's good to see some shots fall for Shake Milton. I get that he is currently Minnesota's most tradeable contract, but realistically, it would be nice if he could be the guy that can come in and have the unexpected twenty point game in the Playoffs.

I love Slomo, so i'm a bit worry with his shooting issues recently. Hope his eye is okay but i'm not sure his vision is back to 100%.

:cry: Thunder are my other team, gritty win vs. the Warriors, I'd prefer OKC and Minny in the WCF :lol:

SGA is awesome though so smooth, that game was great.

I don't like going up against SGA. He might be the best player in the league. Nobody can stop him. Maybe Jaden can contain him.

We have his cousin for that.

All 5 of our bench rotation guys Shake, NAW, TBJ, Kyle, and Naz can all drop 20 on a good night. Even on a night where Kyle couldn’t find the basket <maybe literally:( > we still pull out a double digit win. KAT was in first half foul trouble, didn’t matter. This is truly the deepest Wolves team ever, and the best bench in the NBA. Rudy is playing at MVP level, Mike is making bite bite mean bite on the fake and I bite you with the make. KAT can drop 20+ and we barely notice because TBJ or NAW or Naz is doing it too. This is just incredible.

And Josh and Leonard were with Iowa...


Minott had a decent game, Nix went nuts, Dropped 32.

I have hopes for Nix becoming that back up PG everybody is looking for.

Well, in the play in game, Shai was 5-for-19, and we won by 25. Didn’t even need Jaden.

(It’s so fun to look back at nice things for a change!)

Seriously though, that other huge factor was that OKC didn’t have the size to contend. They added Chet, but with Rudy playing like he is, and all our other bigs, I’m not all that worried about the Thunder. I’d pulling for them to see them succeed in the regular season, but we’re a bad match up for them in the playoffs, so I do hope we meet for the WCF.

That wasn't the last game. SGA obliterated NAW.

Yes Klomp we won, but not due to stellar defense against SGA by NAW.

My two cents. Ant is hurt alright but maybe the reason ue played last game because there is a new rule that you have to at least play 66? games in order to be qualified for the All NBA awards
LETS GO WOLVES!!! 8-)

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
