General attitude among Timberwolves fans is that Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is a massive flopper (the extent to which that is fair doesn't really matter), so he's kind of on the **** list.


I mean the Thunder crowd is louder and they offer some respect.

Really speaks to the fans.

With peace and love, OKC fans are still booing Kevin Durant nine years after leaving in free-agency. :lol:

Alright, it's time to save a few makes for the rest of the series. Minnesota is about to drop a 2/17 first half stinker in game four. :lol:

I told you so. Things in Minny are going to look different.
OKC is the favourite. They're not going to lose all next 3 games, it's impossible.
But Minny in the last 2 years has character. Mentality.
It's the only team in the league that can make Denver feel inferior.
Minny will win a ring with Ant.
Maybe not this year. But it will come.

Agreed

Shannon deserves to be a rotation player in this league.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

We said it the other night. Benching Randle would probably fire him up.

I don't know if it will do the same for KAT but I hope he comes out throwing fireballs tomorrow.

I can't judge, I used to get mad at Minnesota fans for booing Kevin Love. Man got shafted out of a five-year max, wasted six years of his HOF career, and Minnesota fans boo'd him for demanding a trade. :lol:
