I kind of wanted Ant to take Luka’s debut points record but just happy with the win.

Love it! Seeing the wolves earn some respect, been the butt of jokes forever but I'm really hoping and believing this is the start of this franchise turning it around. Great times!

Arrrrrrroooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

The color guy on ESPN has given Ant and Kat lots of praise. Totally deserved.

Can I get a HELL YEAH? My niece had my phone the entire second half, but I was sitting there yelling and screaming and scaring the birds, neighbors, and everyone else inside a few miles. I said that week off would hurt them and it did. I said we needed to punch them in the mouth early and we did. I said KAT needed to come up big and he did.

WE JUST STOLE HOME COURT ADVANTAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We steal homecourt advantage for now! Keep this Defense up! Love the big 3 concept, when one is having a down game, other 2 picks up the slack and with Beasley and Jaden stepping up from the bench is just too sweet!

fish like.

He sure is great though. He was so clearly #1 in that draft. He was a no-brainer.

Big shout out to Beasley who was a next-level version of himself lately. Not just from a shooting standpoint, he has been defending, getting boards, and scoring timely shots in the paint. He has really stepped it up and hasn't gotten a lot of notice.

The grizz r very, very good but we couldn’t have asked for a better first rd matchup.

Ant was elite, Kat kept his cool and we beat them on the boards. If those things continue, I like our chances in this series. I did not expect to win game 1 in their house however.
