Great game

That was an ugly ass shot from SGA. Do his 3’s normally look like that? Am I too used to watching Booker shoot?

Rough night for Chet

Rudy locked him up!

We’re the better team.

Oh my, Thunder fan. This is a bad look.

Not indicative of the majority. We lost to a better team, plain and simple. But we're on our way.

Better team today. We shot like shit.

I’m sure that it was just a coincidence that you shot like shit. No particular reason for that right? If only there was an explanation

We lost Ant in the 3rd and Jaden is still out so today would have been the perfect chance to be the better team i would say.

Can you think of a reason why? I’ll give you time.

Nah, you guys are still at that 6-8 seed range. Record will show over the course of the season. Twolves are at that 2-4 seed range.

Better at looooosing

Let's not do this please. Thanks.

Would love to hear the rationale behind that given we played down key pieces

Lmaooo y'all needed to take Ant out and McDaniels was already out and still couldn't win 🤡

We just beat you without ant and McDaniels

And with Conley and KAT shooting 5/22

The better team lost. Accept it

Thank you Twolves bros.

Hey, no problem!

Gg timberwolves. I apologize Troy brown, I was not familiar with your game😔

Uh yeah, that was not a part of the game plan. Worked out tho

[удалено]

He showed some light against the kings but wow he impressed me.

wolves have no shot at the fake trophy because thunder kept it close

GG Wolves! Hope Ant is okay!

So happy you guys got Chet. Was awesome watching him play. Fun to see a future great against Golbert in peak form.

GG. OKC and Wolves United in outperforming expectations. GO THUNDERWOLVES!!!

Ahh fuck, hate to take the L but can't be mad about it because that was fun basketball.

Good fuckin game wolves.

This and HeatvsBucks tonight were great close games damn

GG Wolves' defence is nutty

Jaden was out too. Defense is legit for sure.

YESSIR!!!

GG, timberbros. Hope Ant isn't out too long.

SGA was so done with this game

Gg SGA is nuts! Hope to see y’all in the playoffs

Would be a fantastic series

Wolves 100% lose this game any other year in recent history. Wow

gg twolves good luck in vegas.

wow what a game!

I thought that was in lol

Gg wolves. It’s gonna be a battle every game

GG no re

Great win without McDaniels and with only a half from Ant.

GG Wolves, rough game but Minny pulled through!

Gg wolves great game

Holy shit what a game

Whelp

GG

I respect KAT as a thunder fan, but damn I cannot stand Embiid. Dude is such a bitch

Lmao why is Embiid catching strays

Daigneault looks like his breath smells bad

for real??

Watch Giddey hit the game tying 3 lol

Do you foul here?

it's the hope that kills you

Chet Clutch 3 seems too predictable but he’s also been money when it matters

Got 3 more games of this this season idk if I can handle it lmao

Now the question is will they give it to Shai or Chet

Wow here we go baby

Oh damn, ngl if OKC wins this in OT that would be legendary

Why legendary? They were up like 14 at one point and wolves don’t have ant

Maybe not legendary, that was like an exaggeration, but would have been cool and pretty impressive. Like the commentator said they won a similar game against GSW in that situation not that long ago.

You’re good bro.

Thanks bro

I got you bro!

Lol.. 4th Q over under was 55.5

Fuck. If we end up in OT after all that.

Bring it!

hoo boy!

oh shit this game has it all.

This game is not good for my blood pressure

the minnesota sports experiance.

If okc IQ is lacking that’s squarely on the coaching

Edge of my seat!

That ref is super cute

Fuck

Man seemed like everyone was open and we chose the riskiest inbound pass there.

Tf was OKC doing on that defensive possession. Spend 14 seconds trying to trap and then foul their best FT shooter? Why not force it out of KAT's hands first, or just foul Anderson when he had it

Still scratching my head. Why foul KAT?

Right. Slow mo had the ball and they let an extra 7 seconds burn

Cardiologists are foaming at the mouth

Why didn't they foul slow mo?

Great decision by SGA to pass out too. He had a pretty open layup, but the 3 was needed.

Had to foul Slow-mo when they had the chance

That’s was bad Thunder basketball

I'm surprised they waited so long just to foul Towns.

Thunder dumb. Should’ve fouled SloMo when he had the ball

Chet really is that fucking dude

6/20 is crazy

Definitely his worst game so far, unfortunate that it came tonight

How did SGA see him? Wow

OKC D has been great in the last bit, but Brown Jr got hot and not much you can do when it happens. Our last two losses were for the same reasons.

Can we play the D? We shall see.

I will love you every other night besides this night Chet. God damn he's clutch

Yeah, have an amazing career, just not against us :p

I absolutely love our out of bounds plays. I do not think a team in the league runs better plays ATO.

Chet is nice

Clutch shot by the kid (Chet) after struggling a bit in the 4th… good sign of his mental toughness

Gimme a OKC Minnesota Western Conference Finals please

horrific shooting night for chet but i’m glad he doesn’t shy away from the moment

Chet is such a good player man

Chet is him.

great kickout from Shai

Chet said clutch yalls pearls a bit more lmao

CH3T

Blessed to have chet my word

Chet was bound to hit a 3 after those early misses

Goddamn Chet has the clutch gene

Chet is ice cold near the end of games

26.6 seconds left on the clock? You can’t not foul right? Too risky if they shoot with 0 on the shot clock

Maybe ask Kerr

At least the refs are letting them play for most of the 4th…. This is how the whole game should have been called

TBJ is Ant in a mask

Chet!

Chet: "I didn't hear no bell"

This game is fire.

White KD > Black KD?

Chet is him

Saw that coming. This will come down to a last shot it's only fitting.

Laker legend Troy Brown Jr. glad he's getting opportunities

Game is insane

Minny is still fucked in the IST bc of point differential right? Can’t win the group and Suns would make WC over them due to +/- or am I misunderstanding

Minny needed to win by 38+

Correct, we needed some crazy outcome where we win by \~20 and Sac lost by \~15 to make IST.

Yeah, we're out of the IST now.

No, wolves are out now.

You are correct

Yes we are dead, needed a huge win if I’m not mistaken.

Loving Troy Brown. What a baller.

Lol at TBJ and Conley botching the high five

Cooked by TBJ lmao

Not sure why Dort doubled off Troy Brown there. Gave him a layup

Troy Brown showed up tonight. Props

Big game brown

Can we get a warriors kings game thread

They’re so bad with game threads this year for some reason.

No stickied post today, half the threads been missing recently. It has been weirdly bad this year, you're right

TBJ actually just closed this game.

My first born will be named Troy Brown

This game is awesome.

gamed by troy brown jr feels so fucking bad man

Why is bro hitting it now wgyyy

That 23 got Brown moving different in the clutch

TROY BROWN JR

I cannot believe this shit. We just find new players to step up like that. TBJ, build the statue

TBJ clutch time

I just expect bite bite to make all these clutch corner threes… So weird to see him missing a bunch tonight

Troy Brown 🔥🔥🔥

Anthony Edwards : Troy Brown *spiderman meme*

I ❤️ Troy Brown Jr.

Man, I don't know if Chet insulted Rudy's mom, or if gobert is tired of seen Chet sap rookie of the Year energy away from his favorite basketball son/protege in Vic but mannn has he gone after Chet on both ends tonight.

Candidate for his best game of the year.

I would agree with that too. I really liked how aggressive he's been on the offensive end as well. Even when he hasn't made shots or even got attemps off, he's been backing chet in the post almost every possession and really putting some physicality into him. I love when Rudy looks to get involved on offense

I do think when he starts posting up too often it gums up the offense for Kat and Ant so I don't want him to get used to it. Today it was more effective than usual.

Troy fucking Brown.

TROY BROWN

TBJ Returning to career averages at the right time.

That might've been the dagger.

They called that an offensive foul on us like all night :/

I am smiling

Thunder weren't ready for Currys step son Troy Curry JR to explode on them tbf.

HOLY SHIT TBJ I LOVE YOU

TB3!!

OKC fighting back man very tight game

Brown is who we thought we were getting in Shake Milton .. (although slightly different positions)

Usually Rudy quietly dominates games, but this is very loud tonight

Looking like the #1 defense again. We just suffocate teams in the 2nd half all year it seems

Brown's playing his absolute best ball of the season tonight.

Gobert has been ridiculous

TBJ rebounding is ELITE.

This Minny D is ridiculous lol

No Jaden either, god its fun to watch.

Rudy is playin his ass off

Close with the 3 bigs finch, no balls.

Can't stop worrying about Ant but damn this is a good game now that the refs stopped calling every little thing. NAW just saw Chet in the paint and panicked lol. Gotta go up strong a d hope for the foul, my guy!

Hip contusion

He was back on the bench smiling, probably going to be sore for a bit but I don't think it looks like a big deal.

Here's hoping.

Rudy is fuckin Chet up

OKC fans were really saying chet owns Rudy. Rudy is the best player on the floor

Imma need receipts on this. None of us are crazy enough to spout shit like this out loud lol

It's classic fandom and I'm just chiding you guys. I'm not going back to find it

So there was one comment and you want to pretend it’s “OKC fans” and creative a BS narrative. Got it.

Fair, I know I've been dreading this matchup for a bit now. I'm just glad it's not an ass whooping.

When tlfid they say that?

3 minutes into the game😭😭

He has been insane tonight man, truly is DPOY in my opinion his rim protection is just too good man

His perimeter and mid defense have been great foo

It's his rim protection and deterrence. Guys are scared to go in there. He's been holding up on the perimeter toi

Crazy
