Game four is tonight! After that deflating loss can the wolves recover and strike back? This is the most pivotal game of the series for us, how will we respond?

Here is a good article and how the Wolves could use Towns better to get advantages. It's a good read, points out that Towns actually had a really good defensive game and that we could hurt the Grizzlies with him if we ran more action to get him low in the post. Hit getting the ball around the 3 point line isn't working well. Particularly because he isn't making three's and his drives are being loaded up on heavily.

It will be amazing to see Finch and KAT make an adjustment this game that gets him back on track. Wolves got the talent but they need to be smarter. This is what the playoffs are all about, adjustments. Let's make some tonight.

Jimmy Butler is rofl … KAT can concede or figure it out

I know everyone is doom and gloom, it's embarrassing, frustrating, etc. That said we still have a chance to be 2-2 after tonight and start a fresh series. Adjustments are a big part of the playoffs. The Grizzlies made theirs and it has worked out, we have to make ours.

I'm disappointed like everyone else but I don't think our issues are unsolvable by any measure. We can adjust in this series (though that is hard to do) and if we don't and we get beat down for the next two games, we got an entire off-season to tweak and adjust so we come out much more prepared next season.

Playoff teams, particularly playoff teams with little experience gain a lot from their losses. We still had a great season, we made a ton of strides. Maybe we make another one in these next two games. If not, we can make them over the next 6 months. This team has been different all season, right now we are feeling that "Typical wolves" feeling, tonight they may show us they are different once again.

Sadly this game will be the 2nd final nail, because I would be suprised if the team haven't mentally checked out after that historically gut wrenching loss.

We've got too many fighters on this team. We aren't going to roll over. I expect Finch to have a good game plan and our guys to come out ready. Win this game and we can still win the series. We've shown we can beat Memphis on their home court, we can limit Ja to a bad game, just focus on the little things.

I think Finch and Bev will have these guys ready for tonight. Easy to spin it as no one believes in you, it’s them vs the world type stuff.

it's time to unleash our secret weapon, Greg Monroe. Can't do worse than Reid right? Maybe play Okogie a lil too. Could use his D on their guards like Banes.

I think tonight we shake off a lot of the bad vibes and funk all over the team. These guys got the tools, we just have be smart and execute. Wake the Target Center up! Get rolling!

It's one thing to lose, it's one thing to get blown out, but blowing a 26 point lead and then blowing a 24 point lead in the same game I have to admit it was so demoralizing I didn't even feel like coming back here. I took about 2 days off, but I am back.

Go Wolves.
AROOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s not even spin.

I think this is one of the most important games franchise’s history. Lose, and the world (and potential free agents) will continue to say, “talented team, but they’ll never win anything because they’re soft.” If they can win tonight after such a devastating loss, and bring the series to 2-2, it shows they aren’t soft.

Redemption time!!!

Couldnt agree more.

This game definitely decides whether or not Minnesota even has a chance in this series.

If they blow it, it is pretty much a done deal. Must win.

I really do need therapy after that last game. All we had to do was hold a 16 point lead at home in the 4th quarter. We'd be up 2-1 and we could all hold our heads high. You who know me know I'm one of the most positive fans there is, but that game broke my spirit.
Go Wolves win game 4.

If Kat doesn’t have a monster redemption game I think his future here should be in question.

I agree with shrink. What makes sports great is when you think it will go one way it goes the other. I think Kat has a big night and the Woves WIN!!

Idgaf about the blown leads anymore, just get a win and tie this **** up 2-2.


LETS GO WOLVES

You can’t shift the culture and the narrative until you come back from true adversity. This is a great opportunity to show it’s a different team. We saw boneheaded loses in regular season, but also a lot of we never would’ve won those games in the past. I think the play in was definitely the latter too. This game can be a huge turning point even if we lose in 6 or 7.

It was great to see Wally Szczerbiak on the pre game show with Marni. He looks fabulous like he could suit up tonight. He's thrilled to be back and walk down memory lane. He loves the Wolves tonight to win it and regain the momentum.

I've met Wally a few times and a nicer class act you won't ever find.

I'm finding it hard to get pumped up for this game.. last games mess has really deflated the tyres.. and I'm actually done with KAT.
