he kept them in the game in the first half. i'd like to see him a little more careful with the basketball though. the dribble in traffic is easy to swat away.

i was really frustrated with Ant's missed shot with 23 seconds to go and us up by 3. Not that he airballed a three, but that he launched it with 10 seconds still left on the shot clock. Have to be more situationally aware there.

I believe the the last time we played the Warriors, Draymond Green put a chokehold on Rudy Gobert.

Too many missed FTs, some missed layups, terrible TOs in the first half, 6 TOs by Naz, and Ant not getting any fouls.

Feels like nobody had a great game but this is an incredibly difficult team to beat as long as they stay dialed in on defense.

Bucks beat OKC and we pull half a game behind them and one game behind Denver (with two games against them).


Conference is still up for grabs.

There’s a Reddit thread dating back 14 years. I’m not even sure who originally started it here, but it’s been a mainstay after wins for a loooooong time.

Edit: it seems she may have just turned 40.

horton's been talking about this for awhile--but FTs and points are down in the second half of the season. they're not getting the calls they did earlier. he got fouled earlier when he made a basket and didn't get the call. i thought the contact was marginal at best on his T. probably got hit--but he's got to keep quiet. KA scored on the put back and it's negated by half with the complaining.

Jmac and conley missed bunnies. the warriors missed a couple too though. the three out of four missed FTs by Ant and conley in the third quarter hurt.

Some of the best non-Ant 4th quarter minutes of the season. NAW/Conley/Gobert/SloMo/Morris. Wolves couldn't get points out of anybody but Ant and Naz in the first half. Just went on a run to flip the 4th Q lead without either one in the game.

Gobert was pumped about Anderson's contest of that Thompson 3, and he pointed at the Wolves bench as if they'd scouted it/knew it was coming. That missed shot locked up the game. Major props from the Wolves players in the locker room for Wolves assistant Micah Nori, who apparently drew up Golden State’s final play (for the Klay 3) in the Wolves huddle during the timeout.

Eat shit Golden State and especially Draymond that thinks the Wolves aren’t a threat. How does 4-0 sweep sound shit head. God that team and its fan base is so insufferable.

Kyle has really turned it on. He’s such a fantastic player to have when he’s like this. Just a swiss army knife on both ends

Since Feb 11 (last 19 games) MIN has been the #1 ranked 4th quarter team in NBA (+19 net rating). 4Q tonight...

GSW -- 29p (44% FG 4/12 3PT) 4 TO = 8 MIN Pts
MIN -- 36p (59% FG 5/9 3PT) 1 TO = 0 GSW Pts

They've been playing really well in those early 4th quarter no-Edwards minutes lately.


Earlier in the year, the team was dreadful on offense when there was no Edwards or Towns on the court. They've fixed that.

Those two FTs Rudy hit late in the game were huge. Been a fun last couple of games.

The Wolves have shot 40-or-more 3s in 9 games this season, and 4 of those 9 games have been in the 9 game since KAT has been out. Finch when asked about the Wolves taking 40 3s again tonight and making 21 of them: "I’ve always been a big believer that the shooting comes from the spacing. If we space well and we create the right advantages, then we should be able to get to the right shots from the three-point line. Naz has committed to taking eight threes a game. Ant took eight. So guys are just committed to taking the three, and particularly when it’s been created for them. We haven’t made a conscious decision to say hey we need to shoot more threes because Kat’s not here. It’s a by-product of our spacing."

Wolves rally from 12 down to beat the Warriors. Their 11th win when trailing by 12+ this season - tied for most in NBA. Their .458 (11-13) win percentage when down 12+ ranks 1st.
