WCF Game 4, 5/26: OKC @ Timberwolves, 7:30 PM CST

[KGdaBom]

Can we Take Care of Business at home again. Go back to OKC knotted up at 2? Go Wolves!! AAARRRRROOOO!!!!!!!!!!

[Domejandro]

Effectively a must win, even if not technically. Go into game five with it being a best of three series with all of the pressure on OKC to not lose three straight.

[moss_is_1]

Need to come out with the same physicality, intensity, and expect OKC to do the same. Should be an electric crowd again, lets hope our guys play as good as last game.

Yes Mulder. The TRUTH is out there.

I feel like the totally engaged Wolves have the potential to beat anyone in the league with their highest ceiling for offense and defense, even OKC.

But OKC is probably the best test of that, more than any other team in the NBA. The young Thunder team always looks reasonably engaged, and this simply led to their terrific regular season record, while the Wolves vacillated wildly.

I think the Wolves can win the series if they play three games harder than OKC, and make their shots. However, OKC is also a team known for playing hard. I’m excited to see tonight’s game!

Shrink thanks for getting it. I have my doubts if Minimus ever will.

[theGreatRC]

I know we can do it, lets tie this up going back to OKC

[A1FromDay1]

We can absolutely do it, a strong start with suffocating defense can give us the edge in this one.

[Basti]

Just like in recent playoff series, I am nervous. My biggest hope is that OKC's adjustments won't be enough and we come out blazing and full of energy. Target Center will most likely do what needs to be done.

LET'S GO! We are back home and back in business! Watched Game 3 from the friendly comfort of first class on our flight home from MIA to MSP.

Klomp I started the game 3 thread and we won by 42. I thought I was worthy to start the game 4 thread.

[Loaf_of_bread]

Bring the defensive intensity. Need Julius dialed on that end of the floor.

Seems like Jaden has figured out SGA a bit by not pressuring so much further away from the basket.

Need ANT to take over when necessary.

[BlacJacMac]

Looks like a good crew tonight. Some Canis comments:

Tonight's refs look to be a low-foul, and even-lower-FTA crew:
• Zach Zarba (chief)
• James Williams
• Bill Kennedy

--------------

OKC has had one playoff game so far with this crew - Game 5 against Denver, which they won. SGA played 38 minutes and went to the line six times, which seems fair on paper.

--------------

Yeah, the Zarba crew did one of our prior games, the one loss against Golden State. We shot 17 FTs and Golden State shot 15, so I agree it seems like this crew allows for playoff physicality.

[Loaf_of_bread]

Spread tonight-3.0 - -3.5 in favor of okc.

[KGdaBom]

Spread tonight-3.0 - -3.5 in favor of okc.

That's almost negligible. Let's kick their asses.

What’s our record with KG opening the game day topic? Can Klomp open a new one to not piss off the basketball gods? Lol

Hey I opened the 42 point victory thread.

You convinced me.

Klomp, don’t you dare opening another thread

[moss_is_1]

I hope we see some Minnesota celebs in the crowd tonight. KG needs to be at this game or a potential game 6.

I seen maybe Pat Bev tonight?
