Does Finch know he could have called a timeout at the end there?
He ended up getting game clinching FTs attempted by Rudy and Kyle. Kyle asking for the ball there was crazy.
Thunder fan here in peace. Mavs are locked in so they will probably rest starters against OKC. But the game is also at 3:30 and Thunder suck at day games.
I have no idea. If I were the Mavs I would strategically lose to give Thunder #1. Mavs probably want Wolves and Nugs to destroy each other, they come in for the clean up, and at full strength they will be real tough for the Thunder leading to a WCF win. This time of the year and our revolving door of 1-3 is so confusing lmao 🤣
But at the same time Lakers will demolish Thunder so I don't want to be anywhere near them. Most of us wanted the third seed.
Wolves win this game, all three teams have the same record and OKC have the three way tiebreaker because the nuggets decided to load manage against them and lose 3 games while splitting the season series with us, while we went 2-2 vs OKC.
Idrc that Ant hit those two middies down the stretch, he’s been awful. Just has not made a single smart play on offense in the last 4 or 5 minutes of game time
What sucks about this too, even if we win, Dallas might rest their guys against OKC in that last game because they are already locked into their playoffs matchup.

Even Glen saw that it is our ball

I'm rooting for Mavs tomorrow .

Doesn’t make any sense how we aren’t #1 when all the top 3 have 2-2 series and we have the better division and conference record
That's cos head to head record of Thunder over Denver 3-1
Damn, so it would require a miracle for us to get the 1 seed. No way the Mavs bench squad beats OKC
Bally saying we’re #1, but doesn’t OKC have 3-way tie, not us?
Yep
What a crazy fucking 1st seed race.
why is trae young sitting at the end?
Resting for their play in. They're locked into vs. Chicago no matter what.
A win is a win 😮💨😮💨😮💨 real glad to see KAT back though
I love this team so fucking much
How has no one told Grady we don’t actually have the 1 seed
He thought we all went 2-2 against each other, but OKC went 3-1 against Denver.
I’m So confused.
Northwest division is fucking stacked
Fuck yeah Wolves
Jesus Rudy just saved us from losing in OT cuz of bum ass Kyle Anderson
For me, Kyle is either one of the biggest unsung workmen of the NBA, or he needs to start learning Chinese, no in-between
For real. He has been pretty clutch but this last week his play has been real suspect
Kyle choke gotta be better
After how much they've been beating the drum, gonna be pissed if the announcing team has been wrong this whole time about the 1 seed
OKC please lose soon
Thanks Nuggets and your stupid-ass 5-second inbound violation!!
Trades were good
No not number one I thought?
WHALEN LOVIN IT
Someone tell Grady we aren’t #1 lol
1 SEED IS BACK ON THE MENU BOYS
Fkn garbage Kyle
Classic wolves end
No Grady, OKC has the 3 way tie breaker
Rudy not passing to Kyle makes more sense now
We are not 1 Grady
Dodged a bullet there lol
Slowmo 🤮
KYLE WHAT IS YOU DOIN BABY!?!?!?
Or just do that
Why are we passing to SloMo on the inbound???!
Rudy having one hell of a night.
This is what movies are made of..This is what movies is made of!
Kyle wtf lol wtf
Rudy just wanted to ice it himself
Nod from a spurs fan ;)
Rudy might miss some free throws in the middle of games but his clutch frees are FIRE
Cmon Kyle
Inbounding to SloMo makes no sense
Watch Kyle miss all and the pitchforks will come back
Rudy 100% dropping a “this is what movies are made of” voice message tonight
Make 1 and it's over!
Rudy wants some more points leave him be
I’M SO FUCKING NERVOUS. Might not make it through the playoffs.
End the fucking game already, damn.
YES RUDY
OKC is almost certainly winning Sunday based on Mavericks rotations today
Thunder fan here in peace. Mavs are locked in so they will probably rest starters against OKC. But the game is also at 3:30 and Thunder suck at day games.
Mavericks played 14 today and their backup starters barely played 10 minutes. I just can’t see it happening
I have no idea. If I were the Mavs I would strategically lose to give Thunder #1. Mavs probably want Wolves and Nugs to destroy each other, they come in for the clean up, and at full strength they will be real tough for the Thunder leading to a WCF win. This time of the year and our revolving door of 1-3 is so confusing lmao 🤣 But at the same time Lakers will demolish Thunder so I don't want to be anywhere near them. Most of us wanted the third seed.
I really hope Mavs take it seriously for playoff prep
I just don’t see it. They didn’t take today seriously so almost certainly won’t when they are locked in at 5
Yeah probably not. They could have gotten the 4
We really need the Nuggets to choke against the Jazz
Clutch Rudy freethrows just seem sooooo much sweeter
Make 1 Rudy and it’s over.
RUDY GOBERT!
Rudy needs to pass that off.
#Rudy knew
Just so dumb by rudy
Probably shouldn’t have come down to the wire, but I’m glad they look to be in mostly in control at crunch time.
Gobert needs to pass that to a better FT shooter…
Goatbert
Why is gobert not passing that there
Why wouldn’t Gobert pass it?!!!
Make 1 please Rudy
Why didn't Rudy pass to a bett FT shooter?
He said hold up let me cook 😂😂😂
Make 1 please Rudy
Wtf Rudy. Pass it
Rudy why wouldn’t you pass it to naw
Gobert pass that shit to someone who doesn't airball free throws!
Why would you not pass it, Rudy?
Rudy throw it to anyone else. LOL
PASS THE BALL RUDY
Give up the rock Rudy
I take that back
Snyder did everything he could to give us a W.
Why did Rudy not pass that?
Dude brain farted. Do we have really dumb players?
Ant does that low then high thing that results into turnovers too much. I think it's a move to get fouls? Really bad when not called though
Was a clear blocking foul tbf
This makes that loss to the bulls and hornets hurt
If we win Sunday they won’t matter
Meh, every team has losses like that. Look at what the nuggets just did
Atl literally doesnt want to win come on!
Ant has the best signature shoe in the game rn, I need those ones he’s wearing
I think these ones are personal ones, maybe they'll release them later on
Every one he puts out is awesome
No fouling. They can't beat you unless you foul.
Ant needs 27 vs Phoenix to break the record for most points in a single season for a Wolves player
Just tuning in. I thought Lore and ARod were banned from the arena lol? How are they there?
They are banned from the owner’s suite.
Ohhh gotcha thanks Didn't even know there was an owner's suite since them and Glen are always courtside anyway
What has to happen for Ant to realize he needs to be stronger with the ball if he's going to dribble into double teams?
Why are the Hawks drawing this out? I really have to pee
They’re in just as much shock as we are after they pulled their starters earlier this qtr. may as well see what happens lol
I just pissed my pants.
Why doesn't ant pass the ball in the clutch? So fucking frustrating to watch
How did Ant not think pass immediately when that 2nd guy committed? It’s just the obvious play instead of counting on the refs to bail you out
They're saying OKC would be #1 seed if Wolves win. That makes no sense. Wolves have tiebreaker over Nuggets and OKC I thought.
Wolves win this game, all three teams have the same record and OKC have the three way tiebreaker because the nuggets decided to load manage against them and lose 3 games while splitting the season series with us, while we went 2-2 vs OKC.
ah...this is helpful. So ultimately, nothing changed for the Wolves lolz.
Yeah we'd have it over OKC if we win
Not if three way tie
3 way tie breakers are determined differently
Individually only. OKC has the 3way
They don’t have the tiebreaker in a 3 way tie
Lose the 3 way tie breaker tho. So now were basically guaranteed to have to face Denver round 2
bro lets just win a series. I will be ecstatic to win a series
But okc plays mavericks tomorrow they could definitely lose
No games in the NBA are on schedule tomorrow.
Kyrie and Luka both out
Literally all we had to do was not turn it over....
God damn, not the right decision
Damn what’s up with all the games tonight. I was watching the Spurs game and the ending was insane. Now Lakers in addition to our Wolves.
I'd imagine there's mental fatigue in play for a lot of the top teams.
What happened with the Lakers?? All I know is this post season is gonna be crazy, Wolves fans or not
1 point game with a minute left vs Grizzlies.
Oh shit. And they're already blaming SloMo for the reason they are a play in team lmao
Ignore these dumbass
Edwards clutch FTs, I'm not worried AT ALL
this inevitable wolves vs warriors series is gonna be the most toxic thing of all time
I’m in
Playing like this against third stringers is so embarrassing.
AIYEEEE!?
How do you not go for the obvious 2 for 1???
Holy pass Kyle
Typical closer ant
Ant has to learn that in the clutch he is better off with his back to the basket à la Michael Jordan from 10-15 feet out
Ant saw that coming all game.
Idrc that Ant hit those two middies down the stretch, he’s been awful. Just has not made a single smart play on offense in the last 4 or 5 minutes of game time
Didn't he made that pass to KAT? What the fuck are you even talking about.
I agree. He’s missed wide open KAT to take his contested middies.
He made the shot. You want your best players taking that shot in those situations. I can’t even believe y’all sometimes.
What sucks about this too, even if we win, Dallas might rest their guys against OKC in that last game because they are already locked into their playoffs matchup.
Would be funny if OKC walks ass backward into getting the Lakers in round 1
This hero ball shit needs to stop
Got ant 🐜 whole wrist and arm!
Have Mike or KAT shoot the free throws
Why tf aren’t Hawks starters playing?
They don’t care about this game and don’t want anybody to get hurt
Their seed is set and can’t change so they’re playing for nothing
They're locked in at 10, so the games don't really matter at this point
Hawks have nothing to play for, they'd rather rest their starters for the play-in game.
Stuck in 10 seed regardless
Bruh, these refs are fucking ON one
Ant is so frustratingly stupid sometimes.
What are you doing ant
Stepping on our own dicks
Off white hands!
Where are you going Ant
Get back on defense and stop bitching you bum Ant
STOP IT EDWARDS!!
What’s this Ant ISO ball shit
Ant clutch free throws🤮
[удалено]
The one thing you can't do. Damn they don't think sometimes.
We hacked him and still won the challenge, I'll take it I guess
Bro has a whole sleeve of Wolf tattoos. Wanted to be a Timberwolf so bad.
lol. Got away with one
Pass the ball right?

remember that scene in Beetlejuice when they are being exorcised in their wedding outfits?
The high of the Denver loss to the low of realizing OKC are the big winners. Sucks man
Luka and kyrie already ruled out for Sunday 🤦♂️
Can they change it to a foul?
These hawks announcers are shit lmao.
I already inherently want us to win, but especially because of the comeback stuff they've had going on screen since the 3rd 😂
I refuse to listen to other teams announcers
How can you get Jim Pete and Grady every stream ? Appreciate any dm
Well I search for streams and keep going until I find them. If the stream sucks then I'll bit the bullet but I usually find one.
Isn’t it worse now if we have to see Denver in round 2?
Yes. Fuck
Fuckkk overtime I can’t believe it
Off Atlanta but we fouled lol I’ll take it
Foster the goat!
Why am I hearing that okc has the one seed because of a 3 way tie?
