Minny needs to work on (1) not taking shots that have zero chance of going in and (2) holding the ball firmly, fundamentals, Fam 8-)
Equanimity, peace, harmony and conscientiousness, friends

Anthony Edwards played the entire first quarter. He has to get rest at some point in the game.

It's an elimination game and he is only 23. He can play all 48 mins.

Respectfully, that is super silly. He is already back in after three minutes, playing 48 minutes is not sustainable.

The KG/Pierce/Ray Celtics' were pretty damn good as were the 04 Pistons....soooo maybe?! Maybe not...idk but they're definitely up there, they do remind me of the Cs team when they just had waves of defenders to just beat down teams.

Kind of expected the TWolves to show some bite, but it looks like they're mailing it in already.

I guess I'm the only person who likes them. Blue/Orange is better than another Red/White/Blue team. And the logo is cool too.

At this rate, the next rest Ant takes will be his last of the season

Chet and Jalen shaking nerves to play like this is really encouraging. Especially Chet who has taken a lot of slander.

Randle might as well opt in at halftime.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….
