Timberwolves @ Warriors On TNT Game Thread (10:30pm ET)

[Illuminatos]

The pleas being copped for this team is .

I wasn't hearing this shyt when they were blowing everyone out and sitting 4th quarters every game.

Or when they beat the thunder and everyone proclaimed Steph as the GOAT.

They take a couple of L's, and now they're "bored". Yeah okay

They were up 17. They were fukking around and took their foot off the gas. It happens. Still a terrible loss though.

 

[Dusty Bake Activate]

let's just ignore that the spurs have only 3 losses more than them, and the fact that they needed time to gel and what not. But golden state fags don't wanna hear it. Great job Minnesota.

Pop gonna unleash the Curry rules in the playoffs.

Denial about what? GS is 9-1 versus contenders this year.

And idc if they let me down, I'm not a Warriors fan.

So why are you popping big shyt talking bout you gonna be the one laughing come May?

^What was their record @Edub?

How did the W's lose last night? Were they off their game with lots of turnovers etc or did they just get beat while playing well?

I forget what the Hawks record was...not as good as GS though, but they still were ahead on Cle and right behind GS last year record wise...pretty sure it was the franchises best regular season tho.

GS was up double digits and imo they played like they just couldn't lose the game,they'd have the lead then give it up a bit then get it again...not really respectin' the opponent...til they looked up and found themselves in ot...minn., they played for every possession, diving on the floor covering OVER screens...I've noticed when GS has a determined opponent that isn't shook they become really human...that happened last night. They had no answer for Towns or Wiggins.

Steph is so important to GS too...if he isn't hitting those shots against a team with some fight the cast members sometimes won't show up...if the Warriors are hounded defensively they become really vulnerable because if the shots aren't falling they aren't going to out-physical or out-strengthen the opposing team...they can't switch gears well...they just keep shooting and hope they fall.

Can we get the cavs game from last night

 

[SchoolboyC]

Dapped/Repped, went to sleep last night thinking it would be a blowout

 

[Numpsay]

I was impressed with Wiggins last night. Dude showed an entire offensive repertoire last night, got to the basket, hit outside shots and played in the post. GSW had no answer for him.

Sadly Rubio would be a beast in the 90's and the early and mid 00's

he already sucks on the perimeter, how would a league with hand checking benefit a twink like Rubio ?
must be a cac

The talent pool at PG was much lower than it is now...even in the early 2000's other than maybe 5 or 6 pgs that would be considered great for the time...most teams just had ball handlers, defenders and distributors...mainly what Rubio is...also Rubio's poor shooting wouldnt be as magnified as it is now as the game is played a lot differently now...so either come up with a counter point or keep trolling and calling me a cac with no substance to articulate :BrutusGTFO:

there wasn't as many great point guards because there was hand checking. the rise of point guards came at the same time hand checking was removed, not a coincidence.
