Game 82: Minnesota vs. Utah (2:30 PM CST)

[wolves_89]

A reliable way to compete with the Wolves is for opponents to sit the majority of their rotation players. It's shocking how consistently bad we play when the talent advantage is massively in our favor.

Absolute dumpster fire.
Chris Finch's refusal to bench Julius Randle is going to eventually cost him his job.

We would be down 15 points if Keyonte George wasn't such a TERRIBLE player.

[Araxen]

What annoys the most is we are the physically stronger team by far. We should just be able to beat them from inside the 3-point line and bully them. It's ridiculous we have only one strategy(chucking 3's). I'm beyond frustrated.

We planned that guy on their team from the Gobert trade

[TimberKat]

When Randle is bad, he is really bad.

[younggunsmn]

Keyonte George is like a guy who plays with Anthony Edwards brain but with 1/3 the talent.

[TimberKat]

Wolves should had challenged the Ant foul if you are going to call a timeout anyway

[younggunsmn]

Ant put us on his back in that quarter, actually making some smart decisions attacking the basket with the charmin soft bigs they are playing.

[TimberKat]

Up 13 going to the fourth. A little too close for comfort. I hope we could handle Jazz D when they switch to zone

[shrink]

Edwards ties the 3P league high, with 5 minutes left!

[TimberKat]

Ant is tie for 3 totals now, let's give him one more and call it a day

[shrink]

And there is #7! Congrats Ant!

[shrink]

It’s amazing he could watch other three point shooters, and learn it so well he leads the league.

[minimus]

Wizards won, so Jazz can have the worst record all to themselves with a loss!

Jazz should not be a threat. Wolves lose today and they send a message to the whole league that Ant is not a superstar.

You are wrong

[younggunsmn]

It's a relief to make the playoffs now, but that game did not inspire any confidence.
We play that way against a team playing real players in the playoffs and we are going to get swept.

82 games in and Julius Randle still lost trying to play within this offense.

[winforlose]

Beasley made 4 3s in the first half. That means he leads Ant by 3. Whatever number he hits in the 2nd (the game looks like a loss for the Pistons which might mean more garbage time,) will inform Ant how many he needs for the 3 point title. Hopefully it does not effect our chances to win.

He finished with 7.

Unlikely Ant beats him.

Ant beat him. 320 is gonna be hard Wolves record to beat as well.

Sorry but superstars don’t let their team lose games like that. We still won comfortably, but that game was ugly.

I agree a blowout would have been better, but last year we looked crappy in Game 82 vs the Suns, and Finchie had them so aggressive for the playoffs.

[moretins]

Thank goodness Ant played this game. Enjoy the POs!!

[Dalvin]

Aaaaaarrrrrrroooooooo!!!! Ended in the season with a win and avoided the Play-in!
