Wolves just beat 3 of the leagues best teams in 6 days. Kinda puts the 76ers loss in perspective.

Next 5 games are against Thunder (A), Blazers (BacktoBack), Blazers, Thunder, Magic(A)..all 5 are winnable. Would be amazing if Wolves can go 5-0 here

I would happily settle for 4 of 5, but I like yours better

Aaaaaaarrrrrrrooooooooooooo!!!! That win over the warriors tastes so sweet! Happy for the team to come out of these 2 sets of back to backs with a 3-1 record. If they could only take care the next five games and then we'll be looking for a 7 game winning streak! Putting pressure on the Nuggets and Mavs.

Good win! Only just got to watch the replay as I’ve been working and dealing with the 4 monsters.
Gee, if THAT Beaz shows up for most games I can’t see a loss coming at all… Not one damn loss

Winning without Ant means we need Beasley, Prince, and MCD to step up. This team has the tools to finish strong. That said, I would feel much better about the playoffs if we had upgraded our backup C to help with defensive rebounding.

Good 4 game stretch BUT Memphis did not have Dylan Brooks, Cleveland was missing they’re starting back court in Garland & Levert , Golden State had the G league team out there. The only team we played at full strength was Philadelphia - we all know how that went. Truth be told if all teams are at full strength this is a zero and four stretch. So yeah the fake wins are nice but let’s be real.
Go Wolves!

why create an account to cry about Timberwolves of all teams lol? Dillion Brooks has only played 20 games this year and Grizzlies haven't had Dillion Brooks for a long time but that didn't stop them from playing like a 60 win team..so yeah they are freaking good even without Brooks.

He’s is their second best player if he would have played we lose. Just a fact it would have been a 0-4 stretch.

Ant is also injured and been in a rut. Say what you want a W is a W.

The reality is that Golden State, Clevland, the 76ers, and the Grizzlies are all better teams than us this season. No denying that, they are some of the best teams in the NBA. That said we beat 3/4. Healthy or not they are all still good teams, they are all still dangerous team, and we were good enough to take on 3.
That's a huge accomplishment. Not something that needs to be nitpicked, we know we aren't on those teams levels but we are working towards it and this is a clear sign of that progressing.

you have to take an account when teams are missing their best players. Let’s not act like we would not make excuses if we played teams at full strength and two good starters out. Come on man. Let’s be better than being blind homers please. The fact is - if the last four teams we played were all at full strength, we would have not won a game - look at what Philly did to us it was a complete mismatch.

Maybe you didn't notice, but Anthony Edwards didn't play last night either. Injuries happen.

Even before you posted this, I was wondering if you were another one of those PHI trolls.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt but it seems to me you are trolling. If not the perspective is simple. These are still good teams, Yes they are not 100 percent, neither are we with the way Ant has been playing and he missed the last game completely. Beasley was also missing against the Sixers.
I don't deny that those teams are better than us and they probably would win most of those games at 100 percent. That said, this is the NBA, teams are hurt all the time. Teams have off and on nights. We get 3 massive wins and we needed them. In the past, we would have blown all or most of those games.
This is a huge step toward progress. You have to crawl before you can walk and walk before you can run, I'd say we are walking right now though we still stumble from time to time. In a season or two, we may be running. Right now, enjoy the wins as we get them. No one is saying we are better than these teams, no one has delusions that we will win a championship this season. It still means something to beat them.

A blowout loss says far more about a night than team. For confirmation ask Memphis, the #3 team in the west who lost to us by over 40.
Do you think GSW or the 76ers, or the Cavs, or the Griz onlu played fully healthy opponents. Do their fan bases regularly come out and say “well we got the win but we really wouldn’t have if the other team was healthy?” Also in case you missed it we have had guys playing through injuries all year. V8 with a taped shoulder gutted it out tonight, that doesn’t mean he was at full strength.
Lastly the 76ers are very overrated. They caught us on the back end of a B2B when we were shooting like **** and a slumping NY that might never win again (also missing their primary PGs in Rose and Walker.) So before you start singing their praises, why not wait till they actually accomplish something. Assuming of course Harden me Embiid can stay healthy enough to accomplish anything.

Pretty wild that the last time Golden State won a game at Target Center was March 19, 2019.
