Coming for that overall first seed and home court Finals. Makes sense as Ant, KAT, Jaden > Don, Jingles, Royce

[–] Swift_42690@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Tough to watch grimes continue to brick wide open 3s. He has one of the prettiest shooting forms but can’t hit wide open shots, make it make sense!

[–] guyman576@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I’m still getting used to this. It’s hard to gain trust after years of abuse

[–] H2-nL@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

66 combined FTs man the referees made this game into a slog.

[–] DeStupak@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Love this win and I'm glad that Fournier didn't play because he would score 40 points against the Wolves, that man gives me PTSD.

[–] ArmiinTamzarian@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I have seen plenty of bad basketball this year trust me, but thirty five percent shooting???

[–] pillbuggery@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Are the Wolves good? The last time they were good I didn't have hair on my nuts.

[–] LetsgoImpact@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Are you like 5? They were good for a short while in 2017-18 with Thibs, Butler and the rest.

[–] comp_a@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (5 children)

Shout out Mike Breen and Wally, could only find the Knicks broadcast tonight but it was so, so pleasant—especially after being subjected to the Warriors broadcast twice in the past week.

I'm conveniced you can't beat this Wolves team when they are rested.

Just insane levels of defense, and then the offense starts clicking.. its a thing of beauty

I'm starting to think the Wolves might be back

[–] jonnylaw@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Go home Thibs.

[–] KnowledgePrevious@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Knicks would need to trade 5 FRP and Walker Kessler to get KAT

[–] Rswany@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Awoo

[–] nbd789@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I keep waiting for the old Wolves, it’s like they went out for milk and ain’t coming back

Awooooo

[–] Thimit22@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Great win. Undefeated at home still. Crazy to see us being a 2nd half team all year! Hope Jadens injury isn't too bad but having NAW step in isn't a bad problem to have at all

[–] smkmn13@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Maybe they should trade the Knicks to KAT

[–] FullBonus@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

If the Rudy trade is considered “the worst trade in history”, then the Conley & NAW trade is “the best trade in history”.

I'm gonna pretend this game didn't happen, fail, and be doubly upset throughout the day

[–] car1999pet@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Hope Jaden heals up quick

[–] Ok_Excuse_3695@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Knicks are frauds.

[–] raki016@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Knicks don't have enough offense. But I can see how this team can grind out games

Thats fucking high-level basketball Minnesota Timberwolves Defense right there.

None of that pansy-ass, dick-tugging smile for the camera bullshit. Men puke, men show bare ass, men deliver their new born baby on the side lines.

Fucking hard-core, dick-in-the-ass, butterball Naismith, fuck it, chuck it, game-time shit.

/u/rswany, HIT ME

When will I get used to this team holding double digit leads in the second half?

Whelp. Disaster 3rd quarter. Minnesota is looking like giants especially at home. At least Mitch got his offensive rebounds. This Minny team is way better than last years team, we blew them out in Minnesota last time

[–] GaimeGuy@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Eat the zebras

[–] ConstantTelevision93@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Get better Jaden!

[–] YanniSwagger@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I’m going to say it… wolves are looking spooky

[–] Toxicyoshi7@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Grimes might be on fraud watch right now

[–] pollinium@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

mitchell robinson absolutely used illicit substances this summer... those arms are tree trunks and his face is just a straight up different shape than it used to be

41-0 at home here we come. Let’s gooooo

[–] mudkip-yoshii@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I’m so traumatized by this team that I felt less comfortable today up 20 than I did against the Pels down by 15

[–] diddlyumpcious4@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I have spent over a decade watching some of the worst basketball in the NBA being a Wolves fan. We played well tonight. There were a ton of fun moments and highlights. But the officiating was so fucking bad that this was one of the most unwatchable games I can remember. God bless any neutral fan that sat through that.

[–] JoseZ1@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (2 children)

The Wolves are building a fort at Target Center

6-0 Home record so far. You love to see it!!

Glad to see the Wolves handle Randle and company. WOLVES BACK BABY!!!

P.S. Jaden please be healthy to guard Maxey on Wednesday

[–] mr_purrfect@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It took 26 fouls and losing two centers... but finally free chicken for Target Center fans! First time this year!

Back to back Wolves games with almost 50 combined fouls. Love ref ball.

[–] ChillFax@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I commend Tom Thibodeau for holding onto the same bit of salad on the top of his head since I knew him as the Twolves coach

Wolves continue to prove that they aren't like recent Wolves teams and cruise to a nice win. (But that 4th quarter was miserable to watch like 5 straight minutes of almost nothing but fts Lol)

[–] dosnetlive@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

I was claiming this basketball team was one Jake Layman coming back from toe injury away from the playoffs not very long ago

Pretty surreal it's come this far this fast

[–] HuruHara@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Karl-Anthony Towns after scoring only 20 points, then fouls out of the game, BUT the Wolves still won the game:

shrugs

[–] jake56380@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Is it too late to join in on the Twolves bandwagon?

I say this as a hater. Rudy has been fucking hooping this year.

The amount of gel in Thibs few remaining hairs is stunning

Wolves to the Finals? !Remindme 6months

I gotta live in a world where Timberwolves fans post AWOOO AND BITE BITE. Like some furry 4chan post. That aside love this team
