All ball by Vincent. Way to ruin the momentum, refs.

Challenge that? It looked clean on the first one but on the second replay looked like he hit his arm.

Ant is in a similar situation as Jokic. Surrounded by bums and knuckleheads like Randle.

Whoopsy, Rui.

You made a guy fall, cool. Need to complete the play and get a bucket. If this gets overturned, making Rui touch the hardwood means nothing.

One more year and the national media will start the campaign to get him outta Minnesota. And he's American so it might work.
