  1. I can’t believe the Timberwolves satanic ritual cursed Luka with a stomach flu

  2. Ant and McDanields were great, but I’m impressed by how good Randle has been in this series.

  3. Turnovers, missed free throws, and a wasted vintage Bron performance, man I’m sick

  5. Lakers made this game so close all game and collapsed when it mattered the most

  6. Feels like it wasn’t too long ago Ant was moaning about seeing double-teams. It’s forced him to work on his playmaking skills and holy shit this mf learns quick.

  9. Gotta tip my hat to the pizza luce delivery driver that rubbed his ass on Luka’s pizza

  12. Nico texting everyone he knows like:

    “You see? This is *exactly* what I was talking about.”

  13. Lebron hit 3 3s in a row to get to 38 points with about 6 minutes left to make it a one point game, then had a possession where he had an open shot and the ball slipped out of his hands at five and a half, then he just kind of disappeared.

    He got a block on Edwards at under 2 minutes. Took a 3 and missed at a minute and a half. That was it.

    Had he scored 3 more points, this would’ve been his highest scoring playoff game since Game 1 of the 2018 Finals.

  14. thoughts during the game

    – i’m gonna miss lebron so much he’s done playing

    – naz is going to get PAID, a not bad defensive C who can punish smalls and shoot threes???

    – 16 to 8 in turnovers was probably the game right there imo

    not really anymore thoughts lmao just really enjoyed this game

  15. Ant playing so well Doris has actually started talking him up way too much. Which he deserved this game.

    He’s finally made it

  18. As a Knicks fan, seeing Randle flourish like this in the playoffs after he never got the chance last year with the dislocated shoulder is just awesome. Seeing him do it against LeBron, Fat Boy, and LA is even better.

  22. Edwards was being typical playoff Edwards but I tip my hat to randle. God ge played so well tonight with great defence.

  27. Tied with 4:30 left. Ant assisted or scored every wolves point from 5:00 to the end. Dude’s insane

  29. The lakers last points scored were at 4:41 left in the game…

    like what the fuck man

  31. He’s already a star, but this feels like the true Ant coming out party. Think the Wolves could be special this playoffs if he keeps playing like this.

  32. Absolutely electric crowd in Minnesota tonight. Respect to them, they made this game great.

  33. I need a clip of Bron, Ant, and Mike Conley joking around during the challenge, dying to know what they were saying.

  38. Ant is driving 23 times per game… he is only averaging 2FTA this playoffs. Ant has the worst whistle in the league.

  40. For all the talk of Gobert being barbeque chicken in the playoffs, he shut down like 5 straight isolation plays on him in the first half.

  42. As a wolves fan, I really have to give props to the Lakers and their fans. You guys are behind the 8-ball every game – refs can’t wait to call fouls on you and they sure as shit swallow the whistle any time a Laker is fouled.

    It also must be hard that nobody wants you to win. God damned media constantly pumping the tires of teams like the Wolves.

    Here’s to hoping the refs and the media give you a semi fair shake moving forward. Godspeed!
