Wolves vs Raptors 3/18 

Post#1 » by TimberKat » Sun Mar 19, 2023 12:31 am

The worst part of Ant injury, we have to leave Prince in the line up. He can't shoot, miss D rotation, causing turnovers, ...

Can somebody count how many And 1 Reid gave up today? Please, just don't foul or wrap the guy up with both arms

Not saying Gobert sucks or anything but he's the third best center in this game after Poetl and Naz

The only silver lining with the injury is that this might force McDaniels to step up his scoring and he's actually doing well

Naz hasn't been completely useless tonight so this might actually be correct. He's been playing like someone who belongs in the G-League for the past month so nice of him to show up.

I could agree with that statement if the game is only 1.5 qtr long

Wolves have to be the worst team in the league closing out a quarter. 2 point game into a 9 point one in less than 90 seconds. So stupid.

This team is hard to watch for a unit being this young against a veteran Raptors team.
This 4th quarter is gonna be a tough hill to climb. Literally an incline trail w/ ankle weights.

I don't expect to win this game but this loss is huge because of the other losses recently. You just have to win the games you can, we really shot ourselves dropping some these recent winnable games.

One untimely Prince TO in OT1 likely end up costing two games. We could have some energy and positive momentum coming into tonight

I thought Moore would get some legit run with ANT out

Not encouraging given he was a 3 yr college player

Don't worry bro he's a top 10 player worth 6 Timberwolves picks, he'll eventually put this team on his back and carry us to victory.

Utah beat Boston. We're now in a 3-way tie for 8th

Even with Ant our spacing wasn’t optimal…now it definetely sucks…no1 in this team is capable of creating his own shot constantly..

I don’t want to overeact and to be too pessimist but we are in serious trouble. I don’t think that we can solve this with only effort, we need some1 to stepup. Honestly I hope it’s Jaden.

Maybe also a Jaylen Nowell come back could give us back some offense….

I'm not sure what people expected. We're down our best 2 players, we'll be lucky to win more games without Ant.

We suck again indeed, and dont have our own pick to profit off it.


Just LOL...
