I love the wolves fanbase because both of our sides are constantly thinking how the refs are going to fuck us and how each of our teams could blow the game
The Curse of Adelman.
Tale of two quarters
Wow refs lopsided calls are keeping wolves in this game. Kings easily have been better team
They’re shooting all jump shots (and making them I might add)
Blowout if the refs dont hold Minnesotas hand.
Both of these teams can comfortably run 12 guys in their rotation
I love ant so much
Ant has a way of just running into people but still holding onto the ball.
One may say, he a Running Back?
EDWARDS
KESSLER
The last half of this quarter has some of the best defense Ive seen. Troy Brown JR and NAW are a fucking menace. Towns is guarding like he is prime Timmy, and ANT out there being his Jordanesque self. I look forward to many series between these 2 amazing teams. What a time to be a Wolves fan, I barely believe this is what reality is now for us fans 😭
NAW was balling to end the half
Anthony Edwards is on my team, we can do anything
Casual 13-0 run by Minnesota
KANGZ BASKETBALL!
Hey usually we're in the business of giving up 13-0 runs, so this is new and strange for us too
ANT seems determined to get to the line tonight
Even with the discrepancy, I think that's what he has to do this game. They're hyper focused on him on defense. If he forces fouls onto them, they'll have to give him more space.
Michael Imperioli needs to be in more TV shows
That Halftime run by the Timberwolves was great. Both Ant and Kat performed great there after the team struggled earlier.
Kings absolutely hacking Ant, no getting around that
Feel like they themselves could have had a few more FT attempts and I hope that balances out. Only 2 in a half and neither were from Fox and Sabonis
Kings started the game w a 7-0 2nd chance point advantage, T-Wolves closed the gap a bit and it's now 12-9

Kings need to get to the line to win, and get Fox's shot going. Shooting over 63% from 3 the entire game would be pretty insane
T-Wolves don't need to change much. Their length advantage is obvious. Stay the course. Really impressive
Refs have been favored towards us but Kings fans shouldn't pretend the disparity is insane when their team is spamming jumpshots and kat/ant drive every other possession
Ant did foul Fox but he got tackled on the drive for a no call right before that.
Ant flies!
NBA writers/podcasters/youtubers pooled together to bribe tonight’s refs to ensure Kings don’t advance in the tourney in order to prevent a Kings-Pacers final. If those teams face each other with any sort of stakes on the line they’ll have to stop rehashing “Who REALLY won the trade?” stories every three months and actually have to come up with new content.
Duarte tried to make his presence known and tried a hard foul on Gobert to prevent the basket but forgot Gobert is like half a foot taller than him and weighs 50 lbs more and he was behind him Duarte also averaging about 7 fouls per 36 btw
“Duarte means foul in Arabic” lives rent free in my head
Defense playing so much better 🙆
Helps when you are never called for fouls.
The fact that you can run straight into a guy and fall down and get the call is just dumb. KAT had no intention in making a shot there he just knew he could force a whistle by falling on top of a guy 100 pounds lighter.
17 free throws to 2 is insane considering how often Kings are getting into the paint.
Maybe one or two on Sabonis but other than that, I didn't see anything outrageous.
Its pretty wild to see, but the Kings are taking a ton more jumpers and Ant is just attacking relentlessly when he gets the ball. Ant never gets calls so I'll take it lol
Fuck fuck Ant please be okay
Travel on Edwards
Sabonis is incredible
He makes soo many tough shots
2!
Huerter? I hardly know her!
uproarious laughter
Here come the refs!
Uh oh
Please don't be a dislocated elbow
The refs are legitimately hesitating when they are calling fouls on the TWolves. I’ve never seen that before.
