What a joke

On fire the entire series besides last game

No disrespect, but this is the same team that eliminated you guys in game five. :lol:

They went 7/47 from three and missed eighteen straight, at one point.

And I’m asking where was this team when we needed them?

You guys are missing layups rn

And you shot very well in the series besides the last game

This just reaffirms to me we really had a chance to win it all if we had a C

Ant didn't score until the last 3 minutes of the half and that was only from a free throw. 0 fg made, 1 pt in a half.

Yeah down 11 at halftime seems quick to turn to booing.

This can't all just be rust right? Lots of garbage effort in these game 1s

Didn’t Warriors do that to the Rockets in game 7? Poor play is obvious, but maybe Warriors defense should get some credit too.

The defense has been solid and I don’t want to take anything away from them, but being honest, Minnesota has been missing some obscenely wide open threes throughout this game. The team is just totally cooked offensively over the past two games, it’s been obscene to watch. Hopefully the lid comes off the basket, at some point.


And the turnovers are ridiculous.

Anthony Edwards is still wildly overrated.

Listening to Shaq is like getting into a cultural Time Machine. Some real caveman talk with this man up garbage
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….
