Have fun rooting for a team taking dirty shots on an injured player.

Should’ve targeted him more. We’re in the playoffs


Target with more dirty shots? You’re as classy as the team you root for. Poverty franchise on a one way ticket back to poverty.

Celtics are toast. I knew Mavs would win but I thought maybe by 8.

He missed 64 games due to injury and was on a minutes restriction when he came back.

But don't mention facts that are inconvenient to your narrative

Fine, they went 40-42 in his age 23 season when he played 82 games. Point still stands. To say ANT isn't MJ because he lost in the WCF at age 22 is just dumb.


Again, Ant didn't have Oakley and Paxson as his next two options.

Personally, I am not convinced that the entire team needs to be imploded after making the Western Conference Finals for the first time in two decades after sweeping Phoenix and beating out the 2023 NBA Champs in a tough, seven game series.

This game sucks, it is a bummer. That said, the prior games were won by 3, 1, 9, and 5. It was a close series where the better team won, regardless of a brutal blowout to end it.



Your avatar needs a change, no longer the satirical "this is fine" Timberwolves, now they are the actual "this is fine" Timberwolves.

Not this again. It's almost like "team" matters.

Which is why it's dumb lay this all on ANT.


Was that the year he averaged 37 and led the league in steals? lol

Well with the game over I wonder why Garnett didnt show up or at least why he let Perkins put that fake story of him showing up tonight out there?

Lively is back. Good sign. Brave kid but I hope the staff isn’t being foolish with him.
