Twolves are a matchup nightmare for LA. Aside from Jackson Hayes they have no bigs to put bodies on the Minny towers. Minny just gets whatever they want in the paint.

How come when LeBron pushed Randle after a basket, the ref came to break it up without calling a technical?

The Wolves need 5-6 strong minutes, don't give the Lakers any hope.

The 2005-06 Suns will always have a special place in my heart

All I can think about watching this game is KD watching and thinking Minnesota will be his next destination.

That's what I like about Luka. He's shooting that before the buzzer. Not like Lavine in the play-in game.

If there is one NBA star who heads to locker due to naggling injury, who I am convinced eventually returns. Its Ant.
He is a weird little iron man type. He only misses games due to technicals and random illegitimate baby births every other month lol

Ant at half speed is better than no Ant.

We need to get like 2-3 stops without Edwards out there.

“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”

Now, close these idiots out. Hard. like you don't come back from it hard.
From a fundamental standpoint it is better for a man to have nothing but be under the protection of Jesus Christ than for him to have everything he could ever want yet be completely without.

Luka, Jokic, Steph and that one guy on Boston are the only 4 players who could legit make that shot regularly from halfcourt line.
