I REALLY want to believe this team is turning the corner. We beat the Grizz who have been our kryptonite for years and have won 3 in a row.

If we come out too cool against the Pelicans on monday, I don't know if I can trust this team anymore lol

not a good look mocking a former teammate like this. Winning is nice but no reason to turn into jerks

Towns gave Culver a hug after the game. Really hope Culver will gain confidence

Anyone have a full game replay with our announcers?

I dunno. I guess I’m not sure I saw it as specifically mocking Culver as much as Vando was just being animated/happy with 50 seconds to go in a blow out win.

I may be wrong (and I’m open to that) but I didn’t see anything overtly aimed at Culver.

This Wolves team has been mocked for years and no one says a word … they have a little fun after a dismal stretch of games and someone’s gotta take it personal and whine. Here’s some cheese …

He had TWO airballs in the game. How many times has that happened for an NBA player in a game.....and he only played like 8 minutes. He looked okay attacking the rim, but he also got the ball poked away from him like 2 or 3 times.

One of the times I was very wrong on a prospect. He's the epitome of two years away from being two years away....but by that time it will be too late. He might be in the G League next year.

Well since I had my little drop in enthusiasm for this team, they turn around and make me eat my words... Have to say though, they tasted nice in the form of 3 wins on the trot.

Always happy to admit when I'm wrong, and the team certainly proved they can be what I didn't think they could.

A rare game I skipped cuz im so friggin tired watching us get man handled by Grizzlies on not talent (we have more talent), but pure effort and hustle. Just embarrassing.



Then I watch the full game highlights and was stunned, is this real life? Not only are we blowing them out but we are playing the extra pass with very fluid and nice team offense? Like they were bodysnatched by a proper team.
