Terrible pass, terrible miss, fouls Joker for 3 point play in first minute of action. Perfect!
Justin Gaard@Gaardsy
Need a tight game from Naz the rest of the way. No sloppy, loose turnovers. No silly fouls. Margin for error too small to spend any time in our feelings.

Now if you’ll excuse me I’m going to go dim the lights, grab some lotion, and read allllllllll those first quarter tweets again.
48 minute game, ladies and gentlemen.
See you in Minneosta.

Ant and Naz both look very much not 100%.
And Gobert just walked back to the locker room (don't know if that's for sure injury related).
English
@JonKrawczynski Why not sub early when you see the starters standing around on offense? If only we had the 6th man award winner on the bench.
English
Really bad offense on both ends right now. Wolves not moving at all.

I’m one of the few who doesn’t watch Stranger Things, but this dynamic of reality vs Twitter applies to pretty much every other walk of life. People are profoundly miserable on this profoundly miserable app. I have to constantly remind myself it’s not real life.

I watched the Stranger Things finale today in a packed theater with my family. It was quite a scene. There were tons of people wearing merch, just so excited to see how the thing ends. And by the time the credits rolled, it was pretty clear that everyone loved it. There were big cheers, big laughs and lots of tears (not from me tho I'm tough 😤). I talked to my real life friends afterwards and they also seemed to enjoy it. I was honestly moved by how cool of a moment this was. An original idea that grew into a worldwide phenomenon that so many people loved. AND they gave us a solid ending. How cool is that? How rare is that? Will we ever see something like that again? Then I check Twitter... And it was just lots of negative commentary from people who seem to get off on hating on things that normal people enjoy. And that's when it hit me. Twitter is our upside down. It's a lot like real life but much darker and full of negativity. Trolls are demogorgons. Elon is Vecna. And all of us are just trying to live our lives in peace with our friends. In conclusion: Stranger Things is a really fun show and I'm grateful for all the good times it gave my family. I honestly think we grew closer bc of it. Shoutout everyone who was involved in making it. PS: I'm clearly Steve in the analogy above.

@DaneMooreNBA I don't think they did very well on either trade today.

Curious what No. 36 could have returned in terms of a future 2nd round pick. It would be a small future draft asset, but future draft assets for Minnesota are limited.
I get roster spots and flexibility below the 2nd apron are tight, and that No. 45 might just be for a two-way player (that comes with no cap hit or active roster spot). But still, would want to know what that future asset would have been.

What a night for Hettinger - Scranton's Laela Jensen. I'm extremely lucky to coach such a great kid! @BLASTTOTHEPAST8

An absolute meltdown by the Wolves down the stretch. Staggering ineptitude on both ends of the court.
English
@JonKrawczynski So many players are struggling, but I cannot watch Randle walk around anymore. And it's not just on defense. I bet he is last man across half court on 75% of the possessions.
English
Anthony Edwards has shifted into hero mode because the Wolves need it. He's got 24 points at the half. No one else has come to the party. He's going to have to grab some boards too. None in the first half.
English
@DaneMooreNBA @KyleTheige Please watch Randle play defense in the 3rd quarter. They will never be successful with his effort on defense. Everyone else is trying to cover for his lack of effort and focus.

@JonKrawczynski Zero effort and everyone else has to try to cover for him.
English
Randle has been caught flat-footed on defense way too often. He needs to make a better contest on that corner 3 than he did.
English
@DaneMooreNBA Playing 4 on 5 defensively. Randle is giving no effort and everyone else has to try to cover for him.
English
Just not enough urgency from the Wolves on closeouts is definitely helping fuel the Bulls 3-point shooting tonight.
That lack of urgency has kind of been the story with the Wolves' defense all season. And the reason this team is not yet at the same level that it was at a season ago.
English
@JK_Trey2 @DaneMooreNBA I think Conley and others are still trying to get comfortable fitting around the Ant and Randle line ups. Which is understandable.
English
The Wolves best 5-player group right now does not feel like it's the starting 5
English
@DaneMooreNBA Has anyone looked very good offensively when they are on the court with Ant and Randle? I think of that NAW three in the first half where both DD and Naz passed up open looks to quickly make the "one more" pass. Neither Randle or Ant make that pass.
English
@DaneMooreNBA Wish a couple of the starters would learn from their ball and player movement.
English
A very Wolves bench start to the game...
Reid - Immediately takes a 3
DiVincenzo - Immediately takes a 3
NAW - Immediately draws charge
Ingles - Immediately throws a lob to Rudy

@HawksCoachSmoke I can’t imagine a better boss and friend to coach under for these past 10 years. What a ride it was. I am excited for you, and our school, with this new and well deserved opportunity. Congrats and thanks for everything Coach Pierce!

I am honored to have been given the opportunity to become the next Superintendent at Scranton Public School. It is due to this, I have resigned as the head girls’ basketball coach of the Hettinger-Scranton Night Hawks.
