Yup. Every chance to play like we’re a composed team that can close out and we haven’t scored since technical free throws I think.

If McD can ever defend without fouling he'll really be something. He's improved his offensive game huge so far.

How about that block by Rudy? WOW!

This is the ultimate feast or famine team. Can beat nola, denver, Memphis and struggle Vs houston, Detroit and probably Orlando.


Good win and start to this upcoming crucial stretch of the season

If the Wolves got any run in them, now would be the time. The next 10 games could decide the season.

Immature team that believes they’re a playoff team based on 7th seed last year. Aren’t ashamed they lost in 6 when should’ve won 5 of those games. They bring it against the good teams because they think that’s where they belong and want to prove it. They don’t bring it against the bad teams as they think they’ll rollover against us.

I almost think fact we have a tough last 32 helps these guys.

Jaden gets the fouls down watch out. IIRC he was #1, not Ant coming out of HS. Think it’s not a big leap to think he might be our 2nd best player in 2 years and most complete too.

Had Pelicans feed. Meyers and Antonio McDaniels one of the truly good non-Wolves broadcast teams.

Memphis coming to Minnesota on a 4 game losing streak. They're not going to be happy.

AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! This team baffles me, lost to the Rockets and then win against 4th placed team in the West. Although I won't mind if we keeping beating teams ahead of us in the standings. We screw tanking teams by giving them wins, then we give fits to teams doing playoff positioning or looking for wins to get to the play in :lol:

I finally saw the Rudy I expected when we traded for him.

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
