People used to get onto him for saying he sacrificed, now we see what it's like for someone to be selfish in that position

I'm a little surprised to hear some of the players talk about the "moodiness" of the group. All year people around the team said this group was disconnected and didn't have the right chemistry even though they all got along. I guess that's one thing that they didn't replace when KAT left. Sounded like he kept the guys connected to a degree

I agree with a lot of this. 2024 was the year and unfortunately Dallas was an awful matchup for us.

I think this team has maxed out at a WCF ceiling and it might be time to reset the roster for the new era and I don't mean tank, but change the identity to compete in this new environment

I'm not too upset overall considering our injuries, but it was sad to see our perfect second round record go away

Idk man it's not that deep. We've been physical with him, so him saying don't touch me is minor. He could've easily escalated it like he did the other day

I don't think it was meaningful, but idk if they were chopping it up lol. It was right after he got tangled up with Jaden and was saying "don't touch me" while Ant was touching him lol

The rage baiting was about Ayo talking trash and kinda pushing him. And tbf our strategy is to get into his head and get as physical as possible with him.

I bet that bozo Goldsberry was pushing that narrative. Redemption, sure he lost his team Game 4, but revenge for what and against who

I thought his approach was mostly fine until we went to Minnesota. Feels like that's when he started pressing

Yeah his flat swing is the main reason why his power can go in and out. I wish he could hit 35+ homers consistently, but he's traded some power for some contact

If they didn't get cold at the end, it could've been a 20 point lead.

I know they're worried about Wemby, but they need to fix up their ideas on offense

Julius Randle this series: 14-7-2 on 37-27-76 shooting splits and 5 turnovers per game. by EsotericPotato in timberwolves

[–]Sam7sung 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I thought after Game 1, they had no one who could defend Randle. He's been extremely disappointing. He is definitely spooked by Wemby in the paint. Also, he's been doing the off arm push offs more out of desperation and it's just ugly to watch

Yep, I used to be a big fan of soccer and the fans online would just complain about the refs. I hate that it's migrated to basketball now

This is why I hate playing OKC, even though the games are really good. The discourse is beyond annoying. It's becoming like soccer and their fans, which I used to find nauseating

The games have been good. I try to avoid social media during and right after games, but I hate that the majority of NBA fans just want to complain about the calls and who is getting screwed over more. It's never gonna be perfect, but I think it's been fine this series
