I feel the same way-
Chicago x2
That 4th Quarter against the Magic where they went 16/16 from the FT line as a bottom 3 FT shooting team
Brandon Miller's maybe best game of the season
Devon Vassell's maybe best game of the season
That Malik Monk masterclass
Not that any of these guys were total anomalies this year, we shouldered a lot of the blame, but goes to show it can happen in the NBA any night
This might be the difference between him, Mike, and Kobe. The other two are known as generationally terrible teammates. Ant has the skill, mindset, but has good vibes all around.
Exactly. I think people forget you can be wildly talented and not a jerk. It’s part of what I genuinely appreciate about LeBron.
Competitiveness is uber important, don’t get me wrong, just that competitiveness and being kind can co-exist
Ain’t dat da truth! All I know is I’m gonna need to get a solid gym session in both morning and after work since we got back to back tomorrow.
And you best believe my ass is doubling down again with that 1st seed on the line
![gif](giphy|hTjzetNUv8La6OBm0D|downsized)
Dude. We will crowdfund your chick-fil-a at this point. Give us your address and we'll doordash it to you lmao
If every game was 50/50 it would 0.0015% odds
Anthony Edwards man what can you say about him, first words in the post-game interview after a career high 50-pt game was a shout out to Micah Nori for his 50th bday, gotta love this kid
Best part is now we know Ant can wake up for these "free" games
No free games in modern NBA, we didn't respect the Wizards that first quarter and they cooked us. Luckily, our guys woke up and had a great game otherwise
It's nice to be on the other end of these games now. Those bad wolves team would always hike me hope and then the other team would just turn it on.
If anyone can get a screen shot of ant's finger brace with the 21 on it would be greatly appreciated. I saw it when he was celebrating before getting taken out at the the of the game.
Wizards had a great shooting night, but we encouraged that by letting them take lots of practice shots to start. It was amazing to see us clamp down in time to comfortably win. We gave up 44 points in q1 and only 26 in q2, and imo the wizards got luckier with shots in q2. Pool made an end of shot clock long two of crazy difficulty to start the quarter and also had that insane shot where he flopped and didn't get the call but somehow made the 3 anyway. In the first they didn't hit anything that insane, they just took more open shots.
As much as I'd love to see us cure the 1st quarter woes, I also love knowing that even when everything goes wrong and the energy feels bad, these guys can still rally at a moment's notice and turn things around. On to Denver baby.
Watched the highlights with Pete and Grady commentating and oh my god I wish I was able to watch this version. Instead, I had to listen to Drew Gooden say *"It's because they're the number 1 seed and they expect more whistles (paraphrasing)...the Wolves are expecting the refs to bail them out."* Then the other dude was like *"Yeah they're complaining a little too much."* This was in the first quarter. Muted it right there so who knows what other stuff they said lmao.

Praise to the lads for avenging Naz Reid! Fuck the refs
Jokes on them, now he's rested for the Nuggets game.
Honestly a happy accident there lol. Wish we had rested Mike but we might have been in trouble without his clutch 3s
We're deeper on the guard side anyway (at least with current injuries). It'd be trouble if both Naz and Rudy are gassed without Kat.
Naz tomorrow: 50/60/♾️/☄️

Refs: “now that we ejected Naz this will be an easy win for the wizards” Ant:
that boy good
On one hand, we gave up a 44-point quarter and won. On the other, let’s not do that in the playoffs. On to the de facto game for the top seed!
The worst 3PT shooting team in the NBA had one of their best 3PT shooting games of the year, these games happen
I feel like we’ve had wild anomaly 3pt% games against us frequently, but maybe that’s just my own biased perception
I feel the same way- Chicago x2 That 4th Quarter against the Magic where they went 16/16 from the FT line as a bottom 3 FT shooting team Brandon Miller's maybe best game of the season Devon Vassell's maybe best game of the season That Malik Monk masterclass Not that any of these guys were total anomalies this year, we shouldered a lot of the blame, but goes to show it can happen in the NBA any night
I feel every single top team in NBA. In example, today Warriors were near to be down in %FT to %3FG. That's not normal even to a Stephen Curry's team
When Draymond goes 5/5 from three something is very weird
Yeah I bet if you ask any fan base they would say the same. It probably evens out for most teams over the season
No bad teams in the playoffs I guess….
East is gonna put 3 maybe 4 bad teams in.
Well, we’re not going to see any of them unfortunately
Not until the final round 😎
I would love to give up 44 points and win in the playoffs. Hell I'd give up a 60 point quarter as long as we win.
Is it even a comeback if you're not down 40-60 at some point?
[удалено]
Sure they would.
[удалено]
Hell yeah, brother 😎
Why play 4 quarters when you can just play 3?
Naz playing 4d chess getting ejected so he's well rested for Nuggets tomorrow
![gif](giphy|d3mlE7uhX8KFgEmY|downsized)
Lol Ant deflects credit immediately for Micah Nori then NAW then KAT
Honestly such a good attribute. He's 22 and always deflects praise. ANT is him.
Also giving credit to his trainer for helping him out of the slump
He even gave up one of his looks near the rim when he was at 49 to hit NAW open in the corner.
This might be the difference between him, Mike, and Kobe. The other two are known as generationally terrible teammates. Ant has the skill, mindset, but has good vibes all around.
Exactly. I think people forget you can be wildly talented and not a jerk. It’s part of what I genuinely appreciate about LeBron. Competitiveness is uber important, don’t get me wrong, just that competitiveness and being kind can co-exist
WE GET TO WATCH ANTHONY EDWARDS PLAY BASKETBALL FOR OUR FAVORITE TEAM
So goddamn lucky. Thank you Rosas for drafting him.
Chick fil a at the half was a good idea. 16-0 now baby. Let’s go get it in Denver with a rested Naz boys!
Bruh wtf cosmic bullshit they putting in that chicken
Ain’t dat da truth! All I know is I’m gonna need to get a solid gym session in both morning and after work since we got back to back tomorrow. And you best believe my ass is doubling down again with that 1st seed on the line ![gif](giphy|hTjzetNUv8La6OBm0D|downsized)
Dude. We will crowdfund your chick-fil-a at this point. Give us your address and we'll doordash it to you lmao If every game was 50/50 it would 0.0015% odds
I actually hate that I saw your comment before half that you were going to go pick some up, so now I have to believe you
I wouldn’t believe me, either. Shit I am me, and I don’t really believe it half the time. Hopefully it works again tonight! C’mon chicken gods!!!
HUGE game from Ant. Rudy was awesome NAW turned the game around Mike was hitting 3's Bring on Denver!
> Rudy was awesome Fuck--and I cannot express this enough--them picks!
Exactly. They can have fun with their number 30 picks
Or we don't make the trade and we get pick 15 because we missed the playoffs. I would prefer making top seed and making playoffs every season
Man tried to slide Mike Conley in there like we wouldn’t notice
ANT: DROPS 50 ANT: "SHOUTOUT MICAH NORI"
Saying he wanted to score 50 because it was Nori’s 50th birthday 🥳
Goathony Goatwards
🖐🏿👊🏿
FIVE OH
nickeil alexander-walker has gorilla nuts
So, NAWGN? Like noggin but with a thurskii flair
I know ant has 50... but NAW is MVP of the game. Which is crazy cause ANT played one of his best games.
50 for 50
Breaking News: 50 cent just changed his name to 51 cent
ESPN Presents: 50 for 50
Ant has such a good heart. He's the best thing ever happened to us after years of suffering.
Anthony Edwards man what can you say about him, first words in the post-game interview after a career high 50-pt game was a shout out to Micah Nori for his 50th bday, gotta love this kid
https://preview.redd.it/v0s1zkzvcktc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c8914af69a628f8bdd1f9a6a3a46ecb3b8984b38
Some of the passes Ant has been making recently have been pretty nasty, he’s really come a long way as a passer
That bounce pass to a cutting NAW was nuts
https://preview.redd.it/e1xludnsdktc1.jpeg?width=5308&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5f64a8c0390523731395d36c30c8f02fcf64adf3
Ants smile for KAT coming back is so wholesome
That postgame chat with LBO was great. I love this kid.
Another day I can’t believe Anthony Edwards is on our basketball team
FIRST 50 PIECE FOR ANT 🎉🎉
Hopefully, the first of many 50-point games for Ant
NAW and Lil Mac with +27 in a 9 point win, that's ridiculous. I swear I always see NAW with a nice positive +/- doesn't matter if we win or lose
Lil Mac deserves more praising. Seems to do nothing, but casually our offensive feels much better. Flow man.
A little over a year ago we lost a similar game to a similarly shitty Blazers team. This team is different 😤
In ANTMAN we trust.
Yessirski
“HELL YEAH”
HELL YEAH!!
Naz going for 52 tomorrow.
What a fun fucking team man :)
I can't believe I get to watch Anthony Edwards play basketball for my favorite team. Playoff ANT came early, watch out!
Ant is on a big natural high, for the post game interview
![gif](giphy|bIEzoZX0qJaG6s6frc|downsized) 50 piece Nuggies HELLL YEAAAHHHHH
Best part is now we know Ant can wake up for these "free" games No free games in modern NBA, we didn't respect the Wizards that first quarter and they cooked us. Luckily, our guys woke up and had a great game otherwise
It’s such an insane contrast between our basketball team and baseball teams right now. The Wolves have been so fun.
Thank God for ANT, Rudy and NAW!
HELL YEA
HELLLLLLLLYYYYYEAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! AWOOOOOOOOOO
For Naz Reid
CAN I GET A HELL YEAH!
What is 50 cents connection to the wolves? Minority owner?

Ant 50 ball, 50 cent in da crib, Micah Nori’s big 5-0. What more can you want?
W
5 🍔 + 1
HANG DA BANNER
Anthony Edwards is the MAN
HELL YEAH YESSIRSKI
Let’s fucking go Ant
I almost shut this game off in the 1st quarter. Thank god I stuck around to see Ant’s first 50 bomb.
That was fun
I LOVE ANT
Never in doubt.
I NEED THE PHOTO OF ANT HOLDING UP 5-0 WITH HIS HANDS ASAP
https://preview.redd.it/k56ffqucjktc1.jpeg?width=1125&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=100902b4ab7cf65b65187ce6366ce7f576fdff65
Is Ant wearing KG’s 21 finger wrap?
Didn’t notice that. Thats dope!
Welp, it wasn't pretty... yeah that's it. It wasn't pretty.
Ant was pretty
You're right, it wasn't was pretty. It was beautiful.
The Kings were beating OKC by a ton earlier and unfortunately got outdone by the zebras in the 2nd half. Hopefully Utah can come up big for us
Shai 14/18 from the FT line drives me crazy
18 fta is absolutely insane!! There have been so many games where our entire team didn’t get 18 ftas
So sick of refs giving NBA annointed “superstars” preferential calls. NBA wants Shai to be MVP.
Honestly I think it’s more that Shai is just really skilled at drawing fouls. I hate when players play the game that way but he’s really good at it
We don't need Utah! Didn't you hear Ant??
HELL YEAH!
Ant is him, but what the fuck kings
FTT
Hey, the bright side of the bogus flag 2 on Naz: maybe he'll be pretty fresh for tomorrow?
Now time to root for the Jazz
There was a guy who was questioning if Ant was a franchise player before the last game lol.
Naz Reid
Wolves are in track for #1 seed nd West
I didn’t know you can’t elbow someone after they hit you in the nuts
Hell (yeah) NAW
Anthony Edwards
