Huge comeback in the last minute of the Quarter fueled by Ant's 6 points.

At least the end of the quarter was good and brought some energy.

Overall, considering how bad we've played, except for JuJu and Donte, we should consider ourselves lucky.

Wolves can't be dumb or sloppy. The Lakers will play as hard as they will play all series in this game right now. You get this win and the series is probably over. Match that energy and the BBIQ!
When luck shuts the door skill comes in through the window.

Can't wait to be done with Luka after this series for many reasons

We were down 10 with less than a minute to go in the Quarter. We whittled that down to 4 which was huge. If that last minute goes the other way we'd be in huge danger of losing this game. Right now I'd still consider us the favorite.

Let's hope we had weather the storm and start the come back. Down 4 is not bad

I just checked and we did win the first quarter of the last game. Our bad starts might have more to do with LeBron and Luka starting the game fresh.

He's been essentially slowmo. All defense no offense

NAW is just not himself. Really struggling as of late.

Finch needs to have Randle or Ant on court all the time

He’s not a Playoff performer.

He hasn’t had a good shooting series for us since his very first one against Denver 3 years ago.

Doncic push off before the 3. On replay it was beyond obvious. He will never be called for that, but hopefully he will start missing.

Naz is absolutely killing us.

If he’s not hitting 3s, he’s a problem.
