I mean, Dubs don’t even have Steph.
Steph, Jimmy & defense doesn’t sound like fodder to me.


Out of all these teeams Wolves are the least impressive. If they lose this series facing a curryless warriors it's shameful.


We're a very up and down team.
You're overreacting to us playing bad right now. We're only down 3 while playing like dog water.

4th foul called on Draymond is confirmation that nba is now WWE. Draymond if anything is going backwards as Randle charges with his shoulder. Refs have already gifted Minnesota 20 points.

Anthony Edwards needs to start dominating or his impact as a top player will be questioned.....

Lakers were in no man's land with that roster. It wasn't meant for Luka and Rob balked on getting him the rim runner he needs. The Lakers were never contenders, but it doesn't matter. It was never about this season, but what they retool around him for the next 5-10 years.

Whoever that announcer is is wrong, Real GM said Ant is overrated.

If people ever question how important it is to have depth and ANY kind of size in the paint, I'm directing them to ya'll series.

I feel this is the worse version you could see of these Wolves..thought they could still be a sleeper.

Just can't see them overcoming OKC or the Nuggets.
