  2. Tough loss being undermanned and half the team playing sick but the refs completely flipped this game in the 3rd quarter. Booker shooting more FTs than our entire team is an absolute joke.

    2-1 on that road trip is a win. Gotta get everyone healthy for a big game on Firday. We still control our own destiny.

  5. The halfcourt offense was SHIT late, they couldn’t rebound late, too many dumb turnovers, and the refs as usual playing a role.

    Idk whether to be happy to mad that that was a game they could and should have won. They looked like the better team; just too much tough shotmaking from their big 3.

  11. Tough loss. We didn’t play well and the refs stunk. Deep breath and move on y’all no need for the end of the world dramatics.

  13. Unbelievably frustrating fucking game. So tired of the officiating in this sorry ass league.

  15. wayyyy too many awful turnovers. right as i thought mike had shaken that out of them. on to the next

  16. Tough L but nothing huge. Refs were shit and we couldn’t make the big plays. Wolves still back

  17. To everyone that had to suffer through that one-sided ESPN broadcast, I’m sorry.

  20. not too mad about the result of this game. Of course would prefer it to go the other way. Would prefer to have as many FTs (as a team) as Devin Booker (the individual player that operates off mid range jump shots)

    But we generated probably 70-80 good looks, which is a good way to play basketball. Jaden cashed the check Ant wrote on KD’s return, we just didn’t have the offense. Don’t really want to play the Suns in the playoffs, but I’m just ready to get over the cold and be ready for the last week of the season and the playoffs

    At this point, it’s just a boiler plate message to say fuck the refs. We’d have to be the best team in the league by like 25% to be true contenders with the foul disadvantage we see every single night- including against the other disadvantaged teams. In this game specifically I need the entire reffing union to go through jump ball training this off season jesus christ how do none of the refs know the rules??

  22. Fun game until the refs took over. They just couldn’t let KD’s home game on prime time be a loss. Despite that- Wolves had a chance. Played with some heart, but made costly mistakes down the stretch. Also:

    F Booker, CP3, Durant, and Booker again.

  23. Doris talking like a rabid Suns fan all game. Nauseating. I hate her fucking voice.

  24. Anthony Edwards 31 pts on 13-22 FG. 2-3 FT. Went to the line ONCE.

    KAT 25 pts 9-17, 2-2 FT. Went to the line ONCE.

    Devin Booker 28 pts, 12-15 FT.

    Sun’s 27 FTS( After Wolves get up 10 mid-way in the 3rd, Suns get a 20-4 FT advantage rest of the way.)

    -Wolves 12 FTs, Booker has more than our ENTIRE team.

    Hard to watch man.
