Good response by Anthony Edwards to an immature moment. It happens, hopefully he learns from it, moving forward.

I'd rather he erred on that side of enthusiasm to play than the other side

Taking care of business. All this winning is making us tense around here. It's getting serious.

I watched the game on Bally, but I noticed when the game ended a reporter for ESPN rushed over to Ant for an instant reaction and an on court interview. Was ESPN covering this game too? I wouldn’t be surprised, the way that they gear towards the Lakers, but as this nationally broadcast?

Might have been ESPN radio as it wasn’t on ESPN TV to my knowledge

You’re probably right. I saw the pretty woman with the big ESPN microphone rushing to Ant, but I don’t remember noticing a cameraman.

If that was V8 that isn’t flagrant.
100%. By and large not a Rudy fan, but loved the attempt at a physical box out. Definitely a foul, NBA star treatment to achieve flagrant status.

I think I heard long time Wolves reporter Britt Robson say that in recent days a lot of national media coverage people have started showing up to practices and games to cover the team. Not saying the big name tv analysts are going to be in town a lot but I think the national outlets are finally seeing we aren't going away any time soon so they are sending bodies out to cover us and get any worthwhile stories.

According to the L2M Report, the correct call made.
https://official.nba.com/l2m/L2MReport.html?gameId=0022300443Q4 00:02.3 Instant Replay: Support Ruling
James' (LAL) successful shot attempt was initially ruled a two-point shot by on-court referees. Upon review by the NBA Replay Center Official, there was not clear and conclusive visual evidence that the on-court ruling was incorrect, and therefore no basis to overturn that ruling. When James raises his heels to jump for his shot, the replay shows his right foot rolling forward so that the toe of his shoe contacts the three-point line. For a player's shot to be scored a three-point field goal, the player may not touch the three-point line until after his shot is released.
