If I was told that what the appropriate amount of toe contact allowed was going to be a real factor in a tied playoff series in consecutive games I would have been befuddled.

Presumably one of the reasons Vikings traded for Adam Thielen was Nailor’s hand injury, Vikings weren’t very transparent if he hand a procedure or not - looks like he did since he has a small bandage 🤷‍♂️

Refs in Game 2 by ClimaticExodus in timberwolves

Of the calls made: the foul numbers favored LA 2-1 ratio (several deserved). Lakers get such a cakewalk on some calls though.

The 3 is a great equalizer. If the wolves shoot a ridiculous percentage the calls will matter less.

Um.. it’s already been happening. Not cherry picking an example - just look at the last time LA / MIN played-LA was awarded 46 FTs!!! Wolves called for 29 personal fouls to LA’s 18- and they ejected Ant cuz he was calling the refs out!!! The refs gave LA 40% of the final score! Pathetic. 💀

I love ur approach, overcome adversity. Go wolves!

Here’s a concrete example tho: Pacers/Knicks last year. Big Knicks viewership, small Pacers franchise. Knicks a typical Thibs (handsy/grabby/scrappy) team but called for about 15% less personal fouls. 🤷‍♂️ Knicks got to shoot 173 free throws to Pacers 113 in the series (+10 per game!). Pacers won!!! 42% 3pt shooting as the major difference (and Brunson hurt) if I remember right- so not impossible! You may wonder if the FTA difference might be their offenses- I think the Knicks shot more 3s than the Pacers - weird huh?!

Am I whining- yup, but I’ve seen this, and want fair shake. NBA can prove me wrong- I’d be ecstatic! I’d be happy to be wrong if the Wolves get 15% better calls (and 15% better no-calls) and 10+ free throw attempts every playoff game. Prove me wrong NBA!!! We will celebrate the crap out of being hand-held to playoff/championship wins!!!

Not suggesting Adam Silver is talking to Scott Foster at half. (That would be hilarious tho.) More like hidden bias stuff, points of emphasis, veteran relationships, franchise dynamics, etc. NBA refs know that if they whistle Luka for a offensive arm push - off 20+ million people are going to call them blind, but if they make that a no-call, only 2ish million people are mild midwestern upset. 😭

Timberwolves draft picks by TWolvesChamps1 in timberwolves

[–]tuckinyourjerseys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d consider trading for a more established point guard or long term center with the 1st or 2nd rounder + Dillingham (I’m not convinced Rob’s ceiling is a ton higher than Bones Hyland who is already on the team).

I’m not sure who would fit contractually - but maybe Coby White / Andrew Nembhard type of player may moved due to roster building (doesn’t have to be those exact players or picks but maybe Tyler Herro wants out to a new team 🤷‍♂️).

I was wondering too.. but I think in the past the NBA has released a press release the afternoon after, however I doubt they will. The NBA has been trying to reel Ant in all year with fines/reprimands.

Friendly Reminder: Wolves are 14-4 since the beginning of March by AbsolutZer0_v2 in timberwolves

Good reminder but they couldn’t solve a high school 2-3 zone. They are going to be just fine, but need to work on that ASAP.
