STILL TOP DOGGS IN THE WEST!!
Our Center rotation absolutely dominated tonight!! Watching Westbrook play C for them is pretty hilarious.
Probably the best all-around game of the season!
Wild win in Vegas and wolves win in LAC…
Put your hands up if you saw that coming…
Now, look around everyone, make note of the dirty rotten liars for future threads 😂
Well that was fun
we’re going to the chip
Ant 23/7/8 on a poor shooting night. 9 assists last game. Love how this dude is distributing the ball. Should have been more too. Great win overall lets goo!!!
Our defense absolutely clamped them in second half
That was convincing.
👇 Don’t mind me 👇 I’m just on the Wolves bench 👇 Somebody dunk 👇
If Kyle Anderson can play like this the rest of the year I have some comments to delete
Dominant win for the first seed, couldn’t have been any better
RUDY OWNS RUSS
great game from the wolves, absolutely destroyed the clippers inside, especially in the third quarter. ‘
Love seeing KAT be aggressive off the catch. As good as Ant is, KAT is still the most effective and best offensive player (imo)
Undefeated in the era of The Count of Monte Assist/TO
tall ball > small ball
Fuck your small ball
👈
We got whatever we wanted in the paint. Straight up 90s win.
I love Timberwolves basketball
Make no mistake gentlemen, this is a huge win. Not only did we beat the Clippers, we beat a Clippers team that is maybe the hottest team in the NBA right now over the last several weeks. We also beat them at home when they had every reason and want to get this win. Winning a road game like this is tough. Not only did we do all that, we dominated them.
This is a demoralizing loss for the Clippers team and a big statement win for our team. Add the Bucks blowout on top of this and we got a chance to build on some serious momentum after the all-star break. The slump may be over and if it is, the league is in trouble.
Can’t wait for Rudy Gobert to get exposed by smallball in playoffs
monte must be so happy he’s outta detroit lmao
Great win man. Got the blazers twice before the ASB lets get some separation
NAW stayed locked in until the final buzzer
Not even a 20 point lead with 30 seconds left is safe for the wolves
Clippers have no answer for us down low
Best Timberwolves game this season, without a doubt. Complete team effort, no player had a bad game, refs allowed physical basketball and there almost no bad calls. Many highlights and two teams with absolutely different roster construction and playstyle. It was worth staying up till 4:30 at the morning, now I doubt I’ll fall asleep. GG Clippers.
​
Wondering if Chuck will finally give some flowers to Wolves for their games against his favourite team, LAC.
One of the best defensive clinics by Gobert that I’ve seen. Holy shit, he was contesting everything at the rim.
That was the definition of a statement game
If Ant could hit his threes, thats a 30 point win @ Clippers. I’m gonna pay for it tomorrow, but it’s worth staying up for.
I’m taking us in the playoff series 10/10 times
The past two games got me bricked up
Best performance of the season.
Just incredible all around. Everyone played their part to perfection.
Goddamn that was good!
Where’s the “We win with Zubac” Clippers cope now? Just admit Rudy eats up your small ball and move on.
So many bad takes after the Chicago game. Yes, the late game stuff is a big issue, but people just assuming this team is gonna fall apart was always an over-reaction.
This is team is awesome, and if you are gonna fall apart every time they lose, I feel bad for you cause you’re gonna miss out on a lot of the fun.
massive props to kat and rudy for playing awesome in the matchup all the talking heads said would be their kryptonite
Your Minnesota Timberwolves just blew out two top 4 teams in their respective conferences ‼️
KAT is daddy
Just wanted to acknowledge the 0 turnovers from Monte, which is exactly what we got him for. In Finchy I trust, amazing win for Minnesota!
Best win of the year, my favorite win of the year. The Morris addition is already looking big. Defense is suffocating. Rudy slapping Russ around. Offense humming. Ant going 1/8 from 3 but it’s an intentional bank. Vibes immaculate.
Remember after our last matchup, some Clippers fans acting smug and saying they weren’t worried about us. Wonder if they changed their mind after this one.
Montesota Morris seems like a solid pickup. Hope he can get into game shape and get to know the team quickly.
What a fantastic win tonight, 100% worth stayin up late.
Monté is a pressure valve. We needed one. Also, we never get these buyout guys, so I didn’t realize that you’re bringing someone in who’s instantly bought in. Anyway shits great. I hope everyone gets high or drunk and laid. I love the wolves.
I liked Monte out there. Seems like he fits well with our rotation.
MONTE MORRIS ZERO TURNOVER
NAW is him. My favorite wolf
Seemed like there was a ton of wolves fans in the Staples tonight
Rudy absolutely terrorized them tonight. I know Russ is gonna be screaming into some pillows later.
Their big 3 was 18-46
Remember when our only good defender was okogie?
Jaden was a fucking menace tonight. Imagine getting by that and then meeting Rudy. When this team plays defense like this, they always have a chance. This was an awesome game.
Impressive win all around. Clearly, LAC had no answer for our size. Towns consistently punished smaller defenders and Rudy feasted in the paint, was very enjoyable to watch 🥹
Also, Monte Morris looked very good, I love the move already! I think he’ll be another catalyst for ball movement off the bench, as well as providing reliable shooting and more size on D than McLaughlin.
