The game looks so easy for Wemby. He may share the ball to much to score 100. No one would ever say that about Kobe.

I’m glad Leo. You deserve joy. Many Wolves fans do.

Nope. No team gives their fans the “Here we go again” feels like the beloved going from a 20 point lead to a 12 point lead.

My expectations for this team for the last three years has nothing to do with “winning it all” it was about playing hard and being fun.

They can’t even do that.

I will be quite conflicted if they somehow win it all. I don’t think this kind of hoops should be rewarded.

The Spurs are fun. Detroit is kind of fun too.

The iso stuff is unattractive.

I think Manu did a lot of stuff pretty well and his efforts contributed to winning. People value shot creation and overvalue highlights and casuals love their pointz.

But I have always valued defense and rebounding especially from non centers and play making.

But the problem is that the majority of games are not playoff games. We spend whole season watching really bullshit low effort games. Then we forgive that because they make some noise in the playoffs.

That isn’t how I look at basketball.

I have been avoiding them for a while. The ICE shot was the last straw.

Fair take. I respect your point of view. You and @michelobius.bsky.social do the work.

I think we can all agree they are fucking infuriating.

I think the thing that bugs me is that really good teams have a consistently high floor. That’s far from true for the Wolves.

How many of those blown leads were to terrible teams though?

I stand corrected.

No. I’m not disrespecting Kobe to fluff Bam. I’m disrespecting Kobe because he was a rapist and the association and idiot fans treat him like a fallen hero.

Also Ginobili was a better player if you’re not a casual who only dwells on pointz.

Kobe died in a chartered helicopter to an AAU game.

Yep. The lack of self knowledge of the chud class knows no end.

Shall we make a list of all the games that they had over a 90% win probability and still lost? This season could have been easy if this team just “showed up” and played every team as if they were OKC or the Nuggets.

Instead excellent injury luck pissed away. The Randle trade made them irrelevant.

Counterpoint fuck that rapist.

Hi Democratic Party hacks. Thank you for the four sentences. I have four words:

Do your fucking job.

Ok another four:

Don’t fund the war.

Here’ another set:

Don’t fucking cave, ever.

You’ve failed fuck off.

Commissioner Cathy is a Deloitte stooge. She, like all folks in the consulting class, thinks employees are replaceable cogs. She also thinks she’s the smartest person in the room.

She’s in for a rude awakening as she is easily the most replaceable person in the negotiations.

Of course mayor forehead curl going to veto the eviction moratorium because his donors (landlords) don’t like it.

Thanks @dfl.org.

I agree and it’s infuriating.

I agree. These coaches have to walk a pretty fine line. I love Finch but his handling of Randle isn’t great.

They’ve already done that. It’s at the core of libertarianism. Pulling up the ladder.

This is a genius scene. Apocalypse Now still stands up.

The Cramer contra fund should exist.

It occurred to me that Randle’s penchant for jogging back on defense would be motive for KG to murder him during a film session.

The historically shitty nature of this franchise should not be used in setting a bar for quality. The Wolves franchise would need to with 80% of their games for the next 30 years to have the same winning percentage as Stan Van Gundy.

The Wolves are playing far below their talent level.

Reading Parable of the Talents now.

I can’t wait until we find the video of Finch saying “Trying in the regular season is for losers.”

Nope it isn’t. It’s enraging.

This. Kobe was a piece of shit. He died because he had the wealth to hire a helicopter to take him to an AAU game.

I mourn the pilot.
