Just want to note that Love's passing tonight should be a bigger topic. That's what he was known for coming out of college and if he can continue to facilitate from the high post like he did today...good things will happen...no matter if Love is scoring or not.

He was setting Pek up like mad tonight. (Same with sexy lexy)

Things looking up in Minny!

It's going to be interesting at the trade deadline....
CT: Pekovic/ Stiemsma/ Amundson
PF: Love/ Cunningham
SF: Kirilenko/ Budinger/ Williams
SG: Roy/ Shved/ Lee
PG: Rubio/ Barea/ POS

Hopefully they can move POS and Williams for a dynamic player fr the bench

Really close to having 4 triple double guys in 1 game.


Yeah, one of them almost had a quadruple double. :P

Beating the best team in the league on national TV feels good! We might just get invited back.

And... we haven't Roy, we haven't Bud, Rubio is in a low level... This team coul be a serious contender.

Great win! But, honestly it's not like we dominated, they just made too many mistakes.

I think that if the Wolves can get completely healthy and in game condition, they'll be close, but that doesn't seem too likely with the way the season has gone so far.

Also,

Derick Williams - 5 minutes today (tied with Stiemsma for least on the team)

If they're not going to play the guy, then hopefully they're aggressively shopping him for a quality wing.

I saw someone suggest Ridnour + Williams for Biyombo + Henderson and I'd be happy with that once Rubio is cleared to play full minutes.

That was one of the most satisfying wins i've witnessed as a Wolves fan.

1. Love, Shved, Pek, JJ and AK all had great games
2. We played on national television for the first time in about 6 or 7 years
3. We beat the best team record-wise in the NBA

Plus, I love watching Durant and Westbrook play, amazing NBA players.

Seeing Love swat the **** out of his boy Westbrook at the end damn near brought a tear to my eye. We brought out the bully ball tonight.

Nice win. Thunder are pretty good for an all black team.

I felt like he was looking to pass more than he has in any other game this season, it was great to see.

I like watching Durant play, but I hate watching him play the Timberwolves. It seems like everything he throws up will go in. Even his bad shots look good.

Westbrook, on the other hand, is the opposite to me. It's always fun to watch a guy as athletically gifted as him, but even his good shots look bad.

I think that hit on Love's wrists just healed the injury. I mean the block.

yes but the Wolves forced a lot of those mistakes. OKC wasn't missing wide open J's all night, they made them work for their shots for the most part.

This. The team has played consistently good defense all year. They won today because their offense decided to show up.

Not trying to rain your personal parade but remember that other awesome national game we had last year? The one similarly satisfying, if not more, against the Clippers? That one felt even better than this one we just saw.
