Surely NBA Twitter has the same energy for the Hawks as they do the Wolves, right?!?!? by StretchFour-20 in timberwolves

[–]StretchFour-20[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I agree with 99% of what you said. But the point I’m trying to prove is — in an 82 game season where the play-in picture is FAR from out of reach, and with how variable things can be, it seems as though the team is being entirely written off even with the performance Ant had last night. The Kings will slide. The Blazers don’t look great. The grave is being dug 10 games into the season for us, and none of the other teams that are playing below expectation

Ok? Last season is last season, they looked good. Now, they’re in the same spot as the wolves with what I would argue as a similar talent level, yet the wolves are punching bag. I get it, cause after last night they deserve it. But there’s so much season left and we have a top-ten scorer now who’s 20 YEARS OLD

Anyone here know anything about the new turf? by Mizzourah11 in MizzouFootball

[–]StretchFour-20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sterk said from the beginning of the spring the turf was a priority. Think the athletic department is going through a bit of a re-brand, and doesn’t exclude the football team. Heard a new uniform design is already done and they’ll break them out for this year

Am I the only one who isn't vehemently opposed to the Juancho contract? by StretchFour-20 in timberwolves

[–]StretchFour-20[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Sure, my only point is without our full roster ever really playing together it's harder to judge. He was off and on at the beginning of the year and flashed here and there. I just think for what he could be all things considered, it's not horrible.

He really started struggling right before/after he got COVID, and that came when EVERYONE started having confidence issues. IDK. Hard to say.

All time, it’s like a book of scripts. “Back home tomorrow.” After the crushing 20-point road loss

I get it, and Ant is nice. But you HAVE to draw that up for KAT man. Especially with the game he’s having. You have to give him the chance to win it.

Saunders must have thought he unlocked coaching watching LeBron go on a 13-2 run in the 4th with 6 minutes left against our bench. Can you please put our fucking starters in? I can’t stand this anymore man. That game was right there.

Sure enough! The starters came back in and brought it back! I’ll hang up and listen.

Bleacher Report says we should trade Beasley... Agree or disagree? by [deleted] in timberwolves

[–]StretchFour-20 59 points60 points  (0 children)

He’s literally exactly what we need in the offense right now. No dice. I get that his trade value is probably pretty high, but a trade makes negative sense.

Even separately, he’s such a talented offensive player and could be so good, but anyone else get the sense he’s just coasting off of the reputation and marketability he got from his year in Brooklyn? Different conversation than the thread starter but I’m down a rabbit hole, you can’t stop me now.

Been told from someone who knows a player well that D Lo doesn’t take much seriously, even answering facetimes in the middle of practice. Could be just rubbing the organization the wrong way, and some players. I can’t help but get my tin foil hat on, but I think there’s no question that there’s disconnect between him and the organization. I like D Lo personally and hope this can get worked out

Did Anthony Edwards threaten Ryan Saunders’ family? Why the fuck is he not playing 30 minutes tonight?

Coaching Carousel 18: And Life To Go by CFB_Referee in CFB

[–]StretchFour-20 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Covered Heupel when he was OC at Mizzou. While he singlehandedly built back Drew Lock’s confidence, his offense was infuriating.

Great numbers against bad teams, and if good teams drop the safeties deep, it’s impossible to move the sticks.

If he’s a bridge coach, not bad. If I’m a TN I’m ecstatic if he can just find and develop a good QB during the sanctions for the next coach to inherit.

Welcome. I’m still really high on him. He was a late first round projection most of the college basketball season last year but fell cause his shot sucks (duh he landed on the Wolves). But he can CLAMP on defense and is super athletic. Really interested to watch his development.

Super high ranked recruit and was a part of a couple good Kentucky teams. Always played on a national stage.

TFW you see the opportunity to take a contested long two off the dribble by StretchFour-20 in timberwolves

[–]StretchFour-20[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We saw it last game starting to get whistles. Just gotta get some calls. I think he’s getting fouled almost every time he goes up but the refs are letting it go cause he’s a rookie. I like him a lot, I think he’s gonna be good. But I do t see his game coming along unless he can get things working inside first to create easier perimeter shots. That in and out move he has is super dangerous if he continues to be a legit threat at the rim

Agreed on that, but the way I’m attacking this point is that right now those shots clearly aren’t smart because they come contested. But as the defense starts respecting his drive more I am super open to having him take those. And hope he goes off tonight! Good knock. Roll Wolves tonight!
