I take the under, and the pacers.

I take the under and the Wolves. My son has $1000 on the Wolves giving 7.


Spread up to 11 now.

Yep he bet it when Ant was Questionable and before Hali was.

You’re giving him too big an allowance.

Just kidding - you’re probably my age. You might have sold me a soda, because I’ve been here from the beginning too.

I get the joke is that big name players are avoiding Minnesota, but the Timberwolves have actually had some unbelievable luck with stars not playing against them.

Haliburton is out

Is it weird that so many opposing stars skip games against us with borderline injuries?

I don’t blame Hali, but some of these guys, like Embiid and Jimmy, it makes me wonder if they are dodging us?

EDIT: funny we had this same thought simultaneously, Domejandro!

He's out of control, but he has been winning. I'm 64, retired, and Medicare starts for me in January.

I wouldn't go so far as to say unbelievable, but we have missed more than our fair share of opposing stars.

Us starting the game in a deficit is a total broken record. We are so good and coming back later, but come on guys. How about starting strong.

I'm also sick of the offensive rebounds we give up.

Pass the ball to KAT, please.

I actually would have tapped Shake Milton to sub in for Anthony Edwards. Indiana Pacers give up a TON of easy looks, so he would have a solid opportunity to go off.

Ant and Rudy really not good in the first. Has to change> KAT and Mike carry the team.

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
