The Wolves have taken 45 shots so far, while POR has taken 60.

This is looking even more than a Trap Game...

All of the analyst after we made the Randle trade: "The Timberwolves finally got themselves a DAWG!"

Tonight is something. Currently debating how much of the 4th I want to stay up for.

Sad thing is, they probably won't pull the plug on the rotation guys because it's a Cup game.

Randle is a stat guy for mediocre teams. He's also ruining us.

We had decent shooting numbers through the first 10 games, yet we looked off.. incohesive..

That dude is the problem. Statistically our most efficent lineups do no include him. Crap defender.

This team hasn't look good all year, even in the wins vs Chi, POR. Looks like we are going to have to wait another 20 years for another conference final appearance.

Man. I really want to do well in the cup, last seasons cup run left a bad taste. Wanted redemption this season.

Ngl I'm trying to be optimistic but I really hate watching Julius Randle play basketball

Trade Randle for backup center, and we can get there.

Naw, ddv, naz, and Ant have shown flashes of something special..

Let the year play out.

We always struggle against young teams that play with tempo, so not sure why it's so surprising. Tonight does nothing for me to say we cannot compete with the likes of OKC, Denver, Phoenix etc.

The muse of Julius, he gives, and if he’s out of sync, then absolutely detaches from the game. Donte should be playing more and getting more touches/ shots.

I do understand point diffeential, but Minott, Dilly and TJ should have played tonight, because Donte, Randle and Conley did not show up
