What’s wrong with that

What’s wrong with that

Just never seen a pops in the interview after the game before ...

My lord… Minnesota is easily the dumbest/most immature playoff team I’ve ever seen.

MEMPHIS V. GS should be fun.

3 games... 3 double digit leads in the 4th qtr...3 losses...jesus Minnesota

When the game tightens up you can see the panic on Towns’ face.

But there probably is no player more demonstrative with a small first half lead. Dude is King Frontrunner.

 

[Phrazbit]

Minnesota chokes another lead. Is there a more worthless all-star than KAT? Confident in saying that this team wouldn’t miss him if he was out

To prove your point, they were getting waxed in the play game before towns fouled out.

I don’t think I could be a Wolves fan. The frustration would drive me totally insane.

I don't know that I've ever seen such a collection of players with truly versatile talents while also playing so damn stupid. God awful shot selection, dude's making an amazing defensive stop one play only to not locate the oppositions best shooter in transition on 2 plays in a row.

Sad thing is that they were up big in that game. Also looked like Joel maybe got a little complacent and didn’t they siakam was going to come that hard. It was a dirty play imo.

 

[Cheesebeef]

Why in the world was Embiid in there up 29 with 4 minutes to go?!

I think he got Embiid with the shoulder on the shot as he was putting it up. It didn't look intentional to me.

Two words...Doc Rivers.

Yep up almost 30 points.

 

[Cheesebeef]

this board would be EN FUEGO if we lost CP3/Book to a majorly injury up 30, with 4 minutes to go in a close out game.

 

[Finito]

Apparently Donavon Mitchell and his team were super pissed Gobert was so complimentary towards Booker this year

 

[Hoop Head]

The Warriors get 3 full days off between games 2 & 3 in their series with the Grizzlies. The way the league has pampered them with scheduling is ridiculous.

Game 1: Warriors at Grizzlies, Sunday, 3:30 p.m. (ABC)
Game 2: Warriors at Grizzlies, Tuesday, 9:30 p.m. (TNT)
Game 3: Grizzlies at Warriors, Saturday, May 7, 8:30 p.m. (ABC)
Game 4: Grizzlies at Warriors, Monday, May 9, 10 p.m. (TNT)
Game 5*: Warriors at Grizzlies, Wednesday, May 11, TBD (TNT)
Game 6*: Grizzlies at Warriors, Friday, May 13, TBD (ESPN)
Game 7*: Warriors at Grizzlies, Monday, May 16, TBD (TNT)
*If necessary

Without Embiid, surely the Heat will shred the 76ers.

3 games... 3 double digit leads in the 4th qtr...3 losses...jesus Minnesota

The wolves lead for something like 77% of the series. Not in a game. For the entire 6 game series. And lost 4-2. That’s amazing.

Man do I wish we would’ve drafted him.

Really? Weird.

Oh yeah, I cannot imagine. Virtually all year if we were up 20+ with 4 minutes or less and we still had starters in the game this entire board was clamoring to get the starters off the court, especially in any game that had been chippy. And that was despite our bench having a stretch there, mid season, where they were letting teams cut 30 point leads to single digits.
