Will Randle be 3 for 3 on reviews

Wolves playing reckless as ****.

That Randle play was for sure a flagrant. That follow through was bull.

Gobert is actually decent in isolation. He's not as good as an elite wing but he's not easy to cook. Luka and a lot of players are just so amazing they makes it look easy. Those are still usually difficult shots.

One thing that has always bothered me is that Rudy Gobert has always graded out as one of the better perimeter centers in the NBA, but has a weird reputation for being a plodding shot blocker.

His critics just make him out to be way worse than he is.

Randle has like 7 fouls at this point.

Now the wolves fans show up?

I took a break from thread during live moments, cuz I realized by what I was reading that my feed is 10-20 seconds behind you guys.

YouTube TV? I've been feeling that way all night as well.

That did not hit LeBron where he was holding.

Good comeback attempt from the Wolves. Should play better in Game 3 and get back the series lead there:

Maybe the refs are blind but Randle clearly meant to punch him in the face. Awful no call there. Embarrassing

Unfortunately for you the Wolves won't have KAT, a career 40% 3point shooter, going 3/22 like he did in games 1-3 of the WCF. Also, unfortunate for the Lakers is that this is the series ANT wanted.

I don’t think Kyrie is “significantly” better than LeBron. And who cares what Ant wanted, he was talking smack to Luka last season too and then got sonned by him in April.

Talk about a resume builder!

On the other hand, imagine being sent by Luka in back to back years even with him on two different teams. Ant would make history as the first player to get send home in that type of fashion.

Wolves pulling out intentional leg locks and full force face slaps and people still gonna complain about refs

Hahaha, travel on that rebound Lebron

Post #899 » by **zimpy27** » Wed Apr 23, 2025 4:27 am

Wolves get the softest calls and keep smacking the Lakers players hard for fouls.

Hopefully refs can sharpen up next game
