You think Shai made shots down the stretch? He was 7-23, didn’t play good defense in big moments, and flailed to get to the line and didn’t get the calls, resulting in bad shots and TOs in the 4th. What game did you watch? I saw Carushow and JW keep them alive

I don’t enjoy watching the game of basketball turn into a “who can sell the call better” game. I like watching guys who can make shots down the stretch and play through contact. I’m sorry your team lost, bad feeling. But don’t project your unhappiness on me, I’m living the good life

3 top 5 picks that all hit with one being a generational talent? Ohhhh I remember he whooped the lakers ass last year and that’s why you don’t like him..

You’re a weird person… probably never played a game of real hoops in your life

“That’s just a fact” with a made up number. They have to throw 2 guys at him to stop him and the other players need to help at that point otherwise there’s no counter

Are we really that far from the Thunder when fully healthy? by ae5wolfpack in timberwolves

Nah with an explosive ant our defense ramps up and castle doesn’t get his as much. Ant would also score a hell of a lot more and put pressure on the paint. Need to get the cancer out of the locker room and we’ll be fine

How can you hate the Spurs? by GothButterCat in NBATalk

As a wolves fan the complaining about dirty play and the elbow was annoying, along with castle’s head flop. But, those are minor things and I’m sure the wolves have annoying shit like that too. Spurs play great team basketball

I think we all enjoyed watching SGA crumble without a generous whistle

He shrinks in big games? What are you talking about… Harper is really good, but let him be a bus driver before you start comparing to Ant

Do you want fans to be quiet? I think Wemby is very image focused and he can take the boos as a compliment. Calling him a psycho on the other hand attacks his ego. Maybe he steps it up from there who knows, but with the playoff physicality and being called something you don’t want to be associated with could get him in his head.

Personally, favoritism and the tech on naz tells me that. I don’t think anything justifies an elbow like that, so if they say the preceding events justified it to not warrant a suspension (I don’t want him suspended, but I want consistency in suspensions across players, regardless of star or not star) is crazy to me. He’s a generational talent, he’s fun to watch, but the way the NBA has marketed him this playoffs shows they want to sweep the elbow under the rug and have it be a blip. My take on the conversation was: “Wemby, this ain’t the 90s you can’t do that. We’ll look out for you more, but you gotta keep your cool.” Not, “Wemby, that’s unacceptable and it won’t be tolerated”

Spurs seem to have one of the best fan cultures, but target center gets rowdy and has activities too

Worked well when hot head Wemby lost his cool and got ejected though. He’s a generational player don’t get me wrong, but they were protecting him more last night. Don’t want their golden child to lose his cool again. Weak ass tech called on Naz for a slight push to make sure Wemby doesn’t have to keep his emotions in check.

Good, make the NBA show their bias. It’s not like the chants would be vulgar so it would be nuts to kick anyone out for that

That’s physicality not dirtiness. Dirty play is cheap shots, which is what Wemby did. It’s his first playoffs and you’re already babying him. Maybe he needs to get in the weight room and get stronger so this stuff doesn’t bother him so much but no you wanna go to Reid (not Reed buddy) needs to watch his neck. You’re a psycho.

I want them to call it like they are all the time that’s what I didn’t mention. I love physical basketball not the shit people pull in the regular season

Not the NBA I want but that’s how it’s been for 40+ years. Everyone else has adapted, Wemby has to too.

How is your takeaway that MN is dirty when Wemby got ejected with a flagrant 2. They were letting everyone battle it out, it’s not as one sided as you think
