Well if you don't like it here you can always go to your OKC board and posts in their 2 pages game thread. :rofl:


Kinda weak smack talk, but i guess when your team is 5-17 and just blew a 19 point lead at home, it's hard to come up with something.

k thanks bye


I wonder by how many points the OKC Thunder would have lost last night had they played without 4 of their best 8 players like we did. :dontknow:

Webster and Flynn haven't played a minute so far. Flynn should be our starter and Webster (at worst the 6th man who gets 28-30 minutes a night but probably if healthy also a starter). Additionally we missed our two best defensive players in the frontcourt due to injuries. Tell me you would have won this game if that was the case on the Thunder. Obviously, our team sucks right now. There's no denying that but if it wasn't for all these injuries we would have a better record.

After the loss today I felt like I needed a punching bag, but nothing beats a good troll bashing. There is a forum-God after all, and he hath delivered.

After the game rambis said we are still looking for a got to guy. I thought that Beasley was the guy? And he is only 21. So he will develop, right?

I see the potential. Once he learns to drive and draw fouls better while not being a ballhog, he could be that closer for the Wolves.

Refs made some bad calls. There was a sequence Love got molested twice and nothing was called. Beasley was fouled and Ibaka's block of the shot was when the ball was on it's way down. That said, MN shot themselves in the foot at the free throw line.

Scoring 68 points in the first half and then not getting near 20 in the next two quarters was the main problem. OKC turned on the D and we collapsed.

Funny how you respond to the trolling comments but not the actual on topic things. :wave:

I can't resist

First posts he basically managed to turn the entire TImberwolves forum against him. I recommend going to the Knicks forum ballboy.

Getting fed up of us throwing away games in the 3/4th quarter, jesus christ it's so, so frustrating. Ibaka with 8 blocks, my god. Pek had a productive game so it seems, 6-10 fg, 3/4 ft's, 3 blocks, 3 O boards. Nice. Just seems like Durant got away from us in this one and that our PG's couldn't handle Westbrook. They're a solid, young team and who'll have a decent year, no shame in losing to them. Looking forward to the Detroit game we should have enough to beat them.

I watched the whole game and 2/3 of Ibakas blocks went like this:

Love layup
Ibaka block
Love gets ball back
Ibaka block
Love gets ball back
Ibaka block

He had about 3 legit blocks in other possessions, but Love helped him out with a majority of those 8 by getting the ball back and trying to put it back up.

Anyway, Love needs to finish the same way he starts for us, plain and simple. He gets hot in the first half and we stop looking for him in the fourth and other guys on our team try to take over when it was Love who was the main factor in getting us the lead.

Our PG play is so bad that I don't even know what to say about that without getting me banned from the Wolves board. Luke is a bad passer, can't set anyone up and Bassy can't shoot; two things we need from at our PG position. I've seen too many times where Luke will throw what looks like a lob passto his teammate who isn't that far away, only to see it picked off for an easy two the other way. Bassy has been looking for his own number and is trying to be aggressive, but he was so much better for us earlier when he was setting up teammates and hitting the occasional set shot, rather than trying to do too much and attack every time.

Once Flynn, Webster and Darko come back, I think we'll see an above .500 team for the rest of the year; we've shown we can hang with playoff teams, but experience and patience wins in the end and these guys are the youngest team in the league.

Oh and the OKC troll, you're calling us sensitive, but you felt the need to read through the thread and quote a post that isn't pro OKC? Yeah.

So another thing I just found out. On Monday I sent a message to the PA announcer, Rod Johnson, commenting on how it was a bummer that the Godfather theme was drowning out our "NEEEKOLA" chant.

PeeDee was at this game and said that Rod is now calling out "NEEKOLA"

Awesome.
