Roster has changed dramatically, but the wolves just can’t hang on to a lead to save their lives and haven’t since like 2021.

[–] Slim-Ticket@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

LMAO what a game

Dejounte was like we are the UNDER .500 HAWKS DAMMIT. They strike again...they are inevitable.

[–] BigBoyFroggy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

comebacks like those are just magical to watch, man

[–] hollow-ataraxia@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dejounte Murray had one of the most special games I've ever witnessed from anyone in a Hawks jersey tonight

[–] MediocreTake@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This was classic Timberwolves basketball

[–] xxapplej4ckx@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I cut the game off when the wolves were up 21 I looked at the scoreboard and couldn’t believe it

[–] ahend1999@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

under .500 HAWKS BABY

[–] nbasuperstar40@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This was one of the best Hawks comebacks I can remember. Damn! The defense looked like the Bucks game in the 2nd half.

[–] CountTwoTenAgain@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

KAT headed to China. Even they might not want his contract tho.

[–] Crosso221@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’ve seen some damn losses in my time as a wolves fan but fuck me dead. 19 up at half time and lose by 14 against a team in the second half of a road/home back to back, I don’t think I’ve ever seen a worse second half performance.

Like what in the actual fuck happened at half time?

[–] Obelisk00@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Down 21 on the second night of a back to back? Not a problem for Dejounte Jordan.

[–] sewsgup@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

36-9 run

[–] thestallion11@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Beating the Bucks and Wolves on a back to back is a great effort after playing badly the 2 first games

[–] horse_renoir13@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

We deserve every criticism coming our way holy shit

[–] MG_MN@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The softest team in profesional sports presents itself again. Ant, Kat and co outdid themselves tonight. Serious changes have to happen because its the same story every time. Nobody should be safe

[–] hot-sauce-950@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And that’s MINNESOTA SPORTS

[–] dukeyyy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Even with the half time score this loss was inevitable... .500 Hawks are like Thanos.

[–] 6eezus@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The Hawks were down 21 at one point in the 3rd quarter

[–] WigginsDickRider@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

this was the most embarrassing loss I've ever watched and it says a lot as a long time wolves fan. holy shit

[–] alllcc@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wouldn't be surprised if the wolves got the record tonight for the biggest difference between points in the first half and points in the second.

The rational take would probably be to say these things will happen in an 82 game season, but this has happened to this team under Finch wayyy too many times

[–] DragonPKL@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I don’t think the opposing defense actually matters to dejounte, sometimes he just gets hot and starts spamming middys and making them all. There’s really not much you can do.

[–] Dazzling-Reason-5140@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Unstoppable Force meets Movable Object

[–] H2-nL@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I can't believe we went from shooting 67% in the first half to 30%, such a terrible loss I'm shocked.

[–] HamlnHand@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The Trae, DJM, Jalen Johnson, Bey/Hunter, Okongwu lineup is INSANE

[–] Both_Funny4896@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

DEJOUNTE MURRAY IS HIM

[–] slaxbr@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wolves did their best to prevent another Timberwolves Brazil win twitter post

[–] JoseZ1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

1st Half Wolves: '95-96 Bulls

2nd Half Wolves: '11-'12 Bobcats

The hell was that 2nd half performance? GG Hawks

[–] fatflipflops@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

there's someone in common with those teams 🧐🧐

[–] Advice_Previous@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hawks will do anything to stay at .500

[–] biinroii01@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

HUMBLE MURRAY

[–] Tomahawkchop14@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hawks trailed by 21 and led by 19 in the same half of this game

[–] jumboponcho@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dejounte is the best contract in the league

[–] ahend1999@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

wtf did quin say at halftime holy shit

[–] artninjatheo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Minnesota pulling an Atlanta better than Atlanta, thank you Wolves bros

[–] fireglz@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

4/120. Lmao.

Dejounte Murray has been insane these last two games on both ends for us.

[–] Rswany@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It cannot be overstated how deeply unserious this team is.

[–] TL-PuLSe@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This team would've never stood a chance to turn it around like that under Nate. First half TWolves shooting was unreal.

[–] dangheckinpupperino@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dejounte can take over games on both ends of the court in a way few guards can, if any.

He only does it like twice a year though. But it’s an absolutely insane and unique experience when he does.

Ask Knick fans what he did to them last year in the garden. Same situation as tonight, 20 point plus deficit and he decided to just erase that and build his own 20 point lead.

[–] Tomahawkchop14@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

There was a stretch where DJ personally out scored the wolves 28-14

[–] Cul_what@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Quin said something to Dejounte at half cause damn was he unstoppable in the 3rd quarter

[–] techno-wizardry@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

this was punishment from the basketball gods for that horrific twitter post from the Timberwolves Brazil account

[–] AdventGarde@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Cemented the comeback behind 41 points from Dejounte Murray, ties his career high.

[–] Random0cassions@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dejounte shot 70/60/100 for 40 points? Complete takeover

[–] Hypnosix@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Everyone gonna blame the wrong players here. It’s 2 guys letting the ball get sticky and only one of them is going to get shit here

[–] TedTran2001@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Under .500 Hawks continues to be the greatest unit to ever touch a basketball. Fuck your double digits lead and all that, but Under .500 Hawks is inevitable

[–] pretty_bad_post@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Embarrassing. That’s all I can say really.

[–] swawesome52@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That was one of the most disgraceful plays of basketball I've ever seen. It's only game 3 bruh, I can't do 79 more.

[–] GuamSavior@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hawks are the best team in the world

[–] Gyroflex@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

one of the single most pathetic halves of basketball i have ever seen. Just an unserious ass team

[–] EsotericPotato@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This is like a five alarm fire, players only meeting tonight kind of game.

70 to 30 run is unimaginable against even the 2017 Warriors, let alone the Hawks. Jesus fucking Christ they are just completely broken on offense, only time it’s looked good is because Ant or Naz or someone is going on a run.
