Can't blame Lebron here. It was just very unfortunate.

Nice to see Ant shake it off. Half time lead after being down 10.

Do they not talk on defense? Randle clearly blew that rotation.

You don’t dive at a players legs. Period.


It looked like a fair attempt at the ball to me.

Clear path foul though?

He had a zero% chance at the ball. Best case he hits the floor. Worst case he injures someone.

It was a cheap play disguised as “hustle”.

We have finished the last 3 quarters very strong. The closing 13-2 run in the fourth game three, the 6-0 run first quarter tonight and whatever that run was to finish the 2nd quarter tonight. This bodes well for our chances.

I don't think it was malicious, but it was dangerous. Maybe a flagrant one and it should have been a clear path foul as well I think.

Ant and Julius 40 points on 13/20 with one turnover.

Rest of the team 21 points on 7/27 with 6 turnovers.

Lets keep the level of compete high and start making some of those open shots.
Tighten up the defensive rotations.

And go back to LA up 3-1.


I love the level of fight in this team so far in the playoffs.
We're gonna need it because the Luka and LeBron are going to empty the tank in the 2nd half.

How can you have such a good ending to the 2nd and then such a bad start to the 3rd? Allowing offensive rebounds to their small lineup...

DISGUSTING.

What a **** start to the quarter. We gave them 4 chances on that last possession before Doncic hit the 3.

Far shots create long rebounds. I would’ve just come back out with the group that made the run. You don’t always have to go back with the starters just cause…

11-0 Laker run to start the quarter. A nightmare.

Gonna melt down just like the Wild.

Our rotations and box outs have been AWFUL all game long we don't deserve to win with the effort we are giving.

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
