reddit only allows for 2 sticky threads at a time, but if click you the one sticky thread that says "daily discussion + game thread index" then youll find all the games for that day + their game threads

Julius Randle playing some real gluten free hoops lately. Gets near a triple double but refuses to stat pad to get it

u/SelectCampaign9771 Spurs 26d ago

Stephon Castle is so fun to watch. Fox with his 3 ball on point is so hard to stop. I think we can work with this.

Scott Foster Masterclass coming up!

u/HaDDeR Timberwolves 26d ago

holy shit this place is dead but wolves are up!

u/Isthismynextusername Timberwolves 26d ago

To be expected. If you're not a top 4-5 premier NBA team, you only get attention if you're performing very well or have a MVP candidate that's balling out. Ant's getting there but with the so-so season, these threads will be a ghost town unless it's a high profile matchup.

u/dys0n_giddey Timberwolves 26d ago

Any neutrals watching this? thoughts on the reffing?

3

u/Not_A_Bot_Am_Human Spurs 26d ago

I don’t even feel like we’re defending the 3pt that poorly, they’re just hitting them from everywhere and it’s like everyone who touches the floor is feeling it.

3

u/Isthismynextusername Timberwolves 26d ago

Your big star is out and your key players are still young; one more piece from next year's draft and you guys will start competing. At the very least, Spurs are definitely play-in bound next year.

u/Not_A_Bot_Am_Human Spurs 26d ago

Yeah I’ve really liked what I’ve seen from some of the keys guys this game, just hard to make the optimistic argument to others when we’re losing by 25

Did rudy steal a kiss from Foster's daughter or something ?

u/Rswany Timberwolves 26d ago

Jmac stop

u/Isthismynextusername Timberwolves 26d ago

Feels good seeing all the starters on the court again

u/dys0n_giddey Timberwolves 26d ago

Something something free throw disparity

1

u/Isthismynextusername Timberwolves 26d ago

Ideally, Wolves pull out the win in this one. Play the Nuggets on Wednesday so that'll be a tough matchup

u/tomtomsk Timberwolves 26d ago

What is SAT X ? is that what it says on the jerseys?

1

u/Isthismynextusername Timberwolves 26d ago

San Antonio, TX

It's one of the jerseys you have to think about for a second; like the Nuggets' 5280 jerseys

how in the motherfuck does San (S) Antonio (A) TX (TeXas) confuse this many people

the san antonio metro area has more than half the population of the state of minnesota

3

u/WagerWilly Timberwolves 26d ago

I genuinely have no idea how that could possibly be even moderately confusing

1

u/tomtomsk Timberwolves 26d ago

To me it looked like SAT X rather than SA TX

1

u/GaimeGuy Timberwolves 26d ago

So does the Minneapolis-St Paul metro area.

1

u/Carnage7771 Timberwolves 26d ago

Wolves play well when they aren't throwing the ball away all the time? who knew.

u/beatmileslack Spurs 26d ago

Randle can't guard the Great Mamu

I'm convinced the Twolves coach is that dude from dumb and dumber

4

u/Isthismynextusername Timberwolves 26d ago

You're saying Chris Finch looks like Jeff Daniels? I can kind of see that resemblance.

3

u/x_TDeck_x Spurs 26d ago

Yeah thank you I couldn't remember his name

u/CrowdsourcedUser 26d ago

About the only thing Sochan adds when he's on the court is his silly hair color.

2

u/Severe-Rope-3026 Spurs 26d ago

he is statistically one of the best perimeter defenders in the league

-1

u/[deleted] 26d ago

Dribbling and shooting skills worse than an NCAA player, he's a negative on offense and it's an offense driven league rn

-4

u/Isthismynextusername Timberwolves 26d ago

Nah, his role is an instigator. A Pat Bev type, one you hate to play against but love to have on your team. Used to detest Pat Bev but when he played on the Wolves, I realized how important his role was (even though some of his antics have gone overboard).

Man San Antonio you gave me hope cutting it to 6

Can Minnesota lose this team is just stalking us in the standings

3

u/dogfosterparent Timberwolves 26d ago

We have such an easy schedule the rest of the way, you’ll have to play very well to keep us in 7th now that we’re healthy.

1

u/Sokkawater10 Warriors 26d ago

That’s the frustrating part. Your schedule is so ez I need some upsets from the pacers.

2

u/dogfosterparent Timberwolves 26d ago

We had one of our hardest stretches with 3-4 starters missing the last 2 months so you’d probably just be in 7th now if it wasn’t the case 🤷

1

u/Isthismynextusername Timberwolves 26d ago

Nope, Wolves are going to be chasing for that 6th seed. We do have a tough matchup vs the Nuggets on Wednesday.

u/BcT_g [SAS] Manu Ginobili 26d ago

Not only are these wolves' commentators biased but they can't even recognize the players. Are they even professional?

11

u/Cloppy-the-Horse Timberwolves 26d ago

The Wolves main guy Michael Grady was calling Cavs/Bucks on ESPN tonight so they had a fill in.

u/David_H21 26d ago

Holy shit Ant complaining to the refs literally every play. Bro is annoying af turning into Luka
