What fools they look like.

Memphis 4-0 over these clowns

Maybe. But context...

You have to understand just how terrible the franchise has been for most of 30+ years.

It's literally the worst franchise in NBA history.

I'd say Kings have taken over that title now, especially after Wolves made playoffs with Butler a few years back.

They've narrowed the gap. But, your take would be clouded with a bit of recency bias. Remember the Wolves had the longest playoff streak prior to the current Kings one. And then, immediately after the playoff run in 2018 as the #8 seed... the team imploded in embarrassing fashion.

And then they were at the very bottom of the league again for two years. The Kings have been bad. But rarely "worst in the league" bad.

Kings - 45.4% winning percentage
Wolves - 39.9% winning percentage (all-time worst)

Let people happily laugh at the celebration. Quit trying to rain on everyone’s parade who thinks that celebration was hilarious.

They were title favorites when they had Harden and Joe Harris. Not the sad team that exists today.

Never in my life have I seen a team celebrate that was over making the playoffs.

Its pathetic and sad. They did what they were supposed to do.

Their org almost never makes the playoffs. Clips didnt wanna pay Bev and now he just beat then in a playin situation.....

It might be overboard but lol @ comparing it to Brooklyn being in the playin first place. We'll wipe those goofy grins off yall next week when we end your season dw

I compared it because those were the two teams that made the play in today.

Who else was I supposed to compare it to lol

Nothing wrong with celebrating this victory . Minny was two losses away from missing the playoffs despite winning 46 games … The pressure was on them and they shook it off.

Beverly wasn’t excessive either IMO . He was the heart of the Clips defence and then they turned around and said we don’t need you

Barkley just told Lebron to come on Inside the NBA. Does LBJ have the guts to come on the show?!

Statistically, I believe the Wolves have the worst win % of any of the major 4 sports since they came in to the league.

Wow, fascinating data. I knew Wolves were historically bad but the worst of all major sports is hilariously bad. Thanks for the data.

Pat Bev crying was a bit much, otherwise the celebrating wasn't much different than a typical close game win, especially a buzzer beater

I appreciate the data and added context. I am wrong, the Wolves are the worst franchise in the NBA. Appreciate the insight.

Who Advances To Play The Memphis Grizzlies?
