Wolves should go “end of hockey game” with some hard fouls. This crap SGA is pulling is BS.

Getting beat by double digits, it ain't the refs. 

 

When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.

And MN has more FTs so far.

It’s a bunch of things, but we don’t have the margin for error to shoot 28% from 3 on mostly open 3s. It is what okc gives you and they bet you can’t do it 4x in 7 games to beat them. Wolves shoot their season average from 3 and it’s a 3 pt game. They were also much much less physical on defense tonight. Some of that is the fouls from game 1 and some was seemingly effort (Randle was abysmal on both ends tonight). At some point I’d love to someone on any team actually foul a guard and take the flagrant. Them commenting sga “puts his body on the line” is ridiculous. The highest danger he has is rolling and ankle or jamming a finger while he pins someone’s arm into him or flails to the floor. This isn’t like the days of old where someone was going tk meet you at the rim and if they didn’t get the ball, they were getting the man and making you earn the 2

Whatever OKC is drinking in their locker room during halftimes I’ll have some of that. Geezus

Holmgren is beyond very good for his size and structure. He plays well inside for giving up so much size and muscle. It helps having some of the teammates he does have. Though you are very correct, he is a very unique player. And it goes back to high school.

To my untrained eye they look out of sorts on offense (Ant in particular can't decide if he should shoot or pass in critical moments) and OKC is killing them on both open looks and with 2nd chance shots.

We will find out Saturday if Wolves led by ANT are risers or posers? I doubt they make finals, but would luv them to be resilient & push it to 6-7 games.

The goal should be win by 50. To quote the classic movie "Smokey And The Bandit:" I'm goin', I'm goin! I got the metal to the pedal and the thing to the floor!

anything less than that mindset is asking for trouble against this team.

Don't worry about ANAL-ytics. Take the shot you can, a 2 or a 3. Doesn't matter. Just score.

Just saw the score during intermission of the CAR/FLA game… up by 30 plus.

At what point do all starters come out especially ANT? I love the ass whooping but if anyone gets hurt right now I’m gonna spit.

My un-educated guess? Very limited minutes in the fourth. Spot-duty.

Yeah I get OKC can cut a lead 10 points in a few minutes so I’m not comfortable with anything really.

Prob the BUF/MN sports fan in me, but I can see in Game 4: Give your opponent false confidence:

OKC is basically: don't get hurt, eff it, let them have this one.

I agree, just stating their mentality at that point in the game.

OkC will be more prepared for the early intensity game 4. Seen this movie before, do this again in the early stages next game and I’ll start letting my guard down. We’re still gonna have to do this in Oklahoma but for now tonight was a blast and shit just enjoy it!🍻

AFAIK: MN and KC split the season series. 
OKC nonetheless finished 19 W ahead of the Wolves. 
Wolves played like they SHOULD be playing tonight. 
It's still OK effing C. 
Wolves don't need their A game, they need their A+ game (God, I sound like an ESPN talking head, but prob still better than Stephen A Smith 😉 ) 
Game 4 is the game. THE game.

Awful foul call on Siakham with 2:40 left.

KAT carrying the Knicks with Brunson on the bench with 5 fouls

The Knicks lose the first two games at home and fall behind by 20 points at Indiana but come back to win game 3. If the Pacers end up losing the series they are going to be thinking about this game for months/years.

KAT had 24 points (20 points in the 4th quarter) and 15 rebounds.

Going off score alone (down 6 less than 2 left in the 1st) they're off to another slow start.

OKC can’t miss, their defense is better and ours isn’t, ANT isn’t involved. Not liking this so far.

OKC has managed to fluster Ant and Randle, one of them needs to show up in the second half

Wolves are playing like they did in Oklahoma. They aren’t attacking their defense and playing on their heels. Everything they didn’t do in game 3. I don’t get it.

Dort is a literal eraser. For some reason Randle and Ant keep trying to go at him when they should be passing out of it. We came back and tied it when Dort got his 4th foul halfway thru the 3rd and had it sit for a while.

Yeah, if you're going for next-level superstar, that's not the way to do it.

If he made three good plays in a row there, Wolves probably win.
