It looked like it was going to be a Milwaukee blowout until the Pistons went on a run.

Big win for our Timberwolves last night. But Anthony Edwards is suspended for tommorows game. It is against Utah so it shouldn’t be a big problem but we need a win to avoid play in territory

Crazy going into Sunday 3 THRU 8 is still undecided. Denver has tie-breaker with Lakers if they lose and Denver wins. Clippers don't have tie breaker with Lakers or Denver. LAC play Golden State which might mean whoever loses might end up as the 7th Seed. Minnesota Knicks absolutely need to win their game. They could finish 4th with some weird changing of the standings.

I think I want to see them play Denver than the clippers. Clippers are low key good and Kawhi is coming back into form. Lakers vs Minny would be entertaining af tho

Heh. I've been following T-Wolves for a few seasons now. One of the reasons why I wasn't gung ho on the KAT trade. Thibs' system doesn't exactly align with KAT's game.

Following and being an outright fan are two different things, Melo is trying to rope you in as a FAN of them. What set you claimin cuh?

Melozakistan continues to grow on a daily basis my friend!
Also the Timberwolves have won 21 of their last 25 games since a certain PF has returned from his injury 8-)

He didn't commit to being a diehard fan of a non-Knicks team, seems like you tried to get him to sign a treaty with nasty small print.


Naz Reid came back from an injury? Which player are you talking about? Is it the one that has a worse record this year than they had with big KAT last season? KAT leads our starters in net rating, I only checked the top 10 players for Net rating on the Wolves the only PF I saw was Reid, interesting :o Is there another player that I need to scroll down even further to find?

Who said anything about being a diehard fan :lol: we just have a lil side team on the west. A lot of us here have been doing that for years lol, I think I've only seen a handful of timberwolves games in full so far.

I think you can figure out which PF I'm talking about. I would help you but you didn't want to help me last time bredren!

You always missing our games when Wolve games are on, we notice these things.



Nah, tell me who I should be looking for, I only look at top players in net rating. You taught me over the summer that net rating is incredibly important, so if I don't see someone in the top 6 at least I don't know how to find them. I know KAT had a higher net rating on the Wolves last season than Reid, how come this other unnamed guy can't do the same. :o

Minnesota isn't on the west coast, my brother in Christ they are on central time, they should be in the Eastern conference if we're keeping it funky. Almost all their home games start within 30 mins to an hour of ours. You trying to play like you didn't know this by saying something crazy, is crazy.

Hmm you seem to know an awful lot about when the Timberwolves games start, more than what a "die hard fan" knows. Well well well, looks like Nodope has been secretly a Timberwolves fan all along. I can't believe it!

I want every other team in the league to fail. You can't turn this around on me, I'm just an avid fan of time zones and geography. But, nobody should ever trust the words of a Cedar Block Celtic fan that also bangs Piru Wolves and Grape Street Knicks.

If Jaylen Brown is injured and taking pain shots, then the Knicks need to try and get through Detroit as quickly as possible to give Brown no time to rest.

Literally the Knicks best chance to beat the Celtics is Boston plays them right after it finishes its own first round series. Expect Boston to try and sweep whoever they see in the first round.

It’s been a softer schedule, but ORL has won 9 of 11. They’re coming in hot into the playoffs and if they beat ATL, I don’t think it will be a cakewalk for BOS in the first round.

Paolo Banchero numbers during that stretch (10 G)

28.2 PPG 8.6 RPG 4.8 APG
47.6% on 21.2 FGA

Franz Wagner numbers during that stretch (10 G)

23.7 PPG 6.1 RPG 4.9 APG
46.4% on 19.4 FGA

We know they D up. Can they finally hit enough 3s?
