@UnderdogNBA Anthony Edwards let his team down. Period.
You don’t quit on your team especially as the leader. What message does that send to the rest of the team on the court?
If the star player checks out, why shouldn’t the rest?
Hugely disappointing. This should never happen again.
@NBA__Courtside This is a lame take. Wemby has every right to protect himself. He was in the middle of receiving an undeserved hard foul and took reciprocal action.
Draymond Green says Timberwolves players need to GET EVEN with Wemby after there were no suspensions or fines 👀
“What if the shoe was on the other foot and Naz was taking out Wemby? There would be fines. There would be suspensions… Jaden McDaniels and Jokic just got fined for much less. For there not to be a fine is crazy… After watching their coach say ‘well I’m happy he took matters into his own hands and level Naz Reid with an elbow.’ I would say to the Timberwolves it’s fair game. There’s no suspension, no fines. Who’s coming out there tomorrow night and doing it to Wemby?”

This play by Ayo was 10x worse than Wembys elbow. No reason to launch his body into Fox’s leg like that. He could have dove for the ball without doing it. These are the best athletes in the world. They know what they are doing and this was purposeful.
@jameswi76997743@The_DocHolliday@spurs@Timberwolves@NazReidMVP He line him he was go do some like this eventually and eventually fair if I’m getting hacked, but you wemby like shaq go get 50 but he going have hard time if they go against the thunder they going turn it up extra aggressive and flop
Mitch Johnson says he doesn’t think there was intent by Wemby and he’s glad Naz is ok, but called out the refs
“I'm glad he took it into his own hands, not in terms of hitting Naz, I want to be real clear about that, but he's gonna have to protect himself if they're not.”
@SlvrBlkCoffeeHr I agree totally with this. Refs saw them fouling and pulling on Wemby. They did nothing about him getting pushed down intentionally previous game. So how you feel good when cheating to win.
