One of these guys is a max (paid) player. Maybe they should be the one getting the most scrutiny?


Can you throw something positive in every 4th or 5th post?



We’re barely beating the Kings.
I’m trying hard to see the silver linings.

Here’s a positive. Edwards produces in the 4th, regardless of score, he brings it.

Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

Really nice way to close the game out. I really hope we can get our first two-game streak since the season start and end the season on a positive note. That defense was atrocious, in the 4th we got a decent effort and the Kings were missing some shots others teams have been nailing.

Edwards play should bury the Haliburton for rookie of the year talk.

Luke Walton continues to be the most overrated coaching prospect in the league. Never forget the hype he got for "coaching" the greatest NBA team ever to a great record.

Finch might be this teams best asset. Literally everything he does in terms of optimizing rotation as well as player usage in that rotation has players producing more in less minutes or more efficiently than Saunders

That's the truth. Finch makes players better and gets them to buy in. Puts them in positions to succeed.

He plays so many different combinations of guys. Amazing. We found a real coach. Rosas should be praised for it.

So are you gonna ignore the 26 pts in 16 mins?

And he literally shot one in the 3rd

When we got the 1st pick last year, I laughed and said "of course we get the #1 pick in one of the 'weakest drafts since 2000'"

Fast forward to April 2021..i just want to say THANK YOU BASKETBALL GODS FOR ANTHONY EDWARDS

Even has in-game feel for pushing buttons and rotations as well as controlling the game through timeouts. Never see a Wolves coach call timeouts even when we’re ahead just to make sure we’re executing/etc

We surpassed the Rockets! We no longer have the worst record in the league!

WE'RE NOT THE WORST! WE'RE NOT THE WORST! WE'RE NOT THE WORST!

Man, the good news just keeps piling up today.....
"The last domino falls here!"
