Doesn’t mean much. She may hate all the owners the same. She just so happened to be seated nearest Arod.

At the time of the trade Glen had already retaken control and relegated Lore and Arod to Spectator Investors.

Seems like a stretch, because she specifically did this to ARod and Lore, and she is probably pretty pleased with Taylor for getting her client on a Supermax for the next four years, especially since she gets a cut.

We don’t have evidence that KAT’s agent hates Taylor.
We don’t have evidence that KAT’s agent hates Connelly.
We DO have evidence that KAT’s agent hates AROD and Lore!

But sure, just invent stuff you don’t know to ignore stuff you do, and don’t want to acknowledge, because it doesn’t match your feelings. Must be a seating issue, and I’m sure her blame and yours was meant for Taylor.

Great comeback!!! I don't remember a comeback like this honestly!

Great W!! Hope this W could represent a turn stone for our season!!!

I love to see Donte in this mood too!

I think what we are learning about Donte is that despite the fact that he has the tools to do more, his role on offense should only be catch and shoot 3s. No dibbling, no pull ups, just catch and shoot. If he can give you 15-20 PPG in that role, bench scoring will be less of a problem.

It was 4 30 am here in europe, after randle stepped out of bounds w/5mins left I turned the tv off and went to bed cursing myself for staying so late to watch them. I cannot be more in disbelief at the result this morning....

Kudos guys, incredible win

Just stated watching the game due to travel. I like Jim Pete backed me up about the Gobert indicator. Wolves are 8-2 if Gobert has 7+ shot attempts and 1-9 with less. Looks like he sucked this game but as a team, if we give other players easy baskets, we win.

The thought that just wouldn’t leave my head after he said that is how bad 70% of the passes to Rudy actually are this season. I don’t know why they don’t just throw the ball up to him. Go back and watch how many of them are low or off target. Rudy should be getting at least 7 dunks per game and the fact that he isn’t is a indictment of the team and coaching as much as it is an indictment of Rudy and his bad games.

I don't consider that evidence of hate. And even if there might be something there, there may be something deeper underlying than just what happened in the days before training camp.
