@shadeursanders@ChristopherHine Not really, the wolves played worse than they usually do vs the raptors, so why lie and say you want to play like that in the playoffs (not to their full potential)
Couple things from Anthony Edwards tonight. Asked him what the adrenaline rush is like after a dunk like the one he had on RJ Barrett.
“I’m ready to get a tech.”
Ant: “Me and my coach got the best relationship ever. He be right most of the time — 98 percent of the time. He told me to pass the ball tonight and I should have passed it, but I shot the ball instead and it went in. Bball gods were on my side.”

After the all star break you have to accept your team for who they are.. but 2026-2027 I hope Wolves look more like
Ayo
Ant
Jaden
Naz
Rudy
Bones
DDV / Clark
TSJ
Joan
1. Trade Randle for vet back up big
2. If DDV doesn’t want to come off bench trade him for draft capital
@caniget5dollars@JonKrawczynski Joan is completely fine. 2 absolute BS fouls that finch should have challenged but didn’t because he hates his young guys, then just decided to bench him and play Jaden at the 5 which is where the game was lost
@JonKrawczynski Joan is not ready
Ayo is just another TSJ (they’re both bad)
Jaden is inconsistent
Ant got passed by Cade and Maxey in one season
Randle is Randle
Maybe they can get another morale victory in the playoffs and run it back again
Just a really rough day at the office for the Wolves. Gobert and Reid were sorely missed, and the Wolves collapsed under the weight of turnovers and foul trouble.
Maxey: 39p, 8a
Edwards: 28p, 9r, 7 TOs
Bright side: DEN and LAL lost as well.
