    The Wolves players must have really hated Tom Thibodeau constant barking on the sidelines, in practice, maybe in their sleep, his voice must be stuck in their head. It demotivates, brings them down to do this.
    Mike DAntoni does it the right way, by not yelling, being quiet n players mistakes, but uplifting the players during timeouts.

    haha
    He had a simple pass to Adams for the tie, once Towns took him. Isn't the basic rule, go for the Tie at home, Win on the road.

    I still think PG deserves to take these shots they way he has been playing this season.

    LMAO. True. It's not quite as fun as it was last year watching them lose, but damnit I'm addicted to Thunder L's. I will take them any day of the week.

    And Christ Almighty...do you remember that Thunder-Jazz series? I was experiencing nirvana watching that series.

    LOL @ Westbrick's last-second bricks to secure his team's L

    Tiny Town organization is so frightened to lose him they bend over backwards and accept whatever backcrap he does. Almost FIVE 3PA/game while shooting them sub-24%..... PER is currently sub-20

    Good for Ryan Saunders... was a big fan of his dad. I'll be rooting for him - Minny could use a break..

    T-Wolves one of few teams in league I'd argue could actually use a "players" coach... need a coach that can teach Wiggins and KAT to play with a little confidence in themselves, seems like their development has been nearly stagnant for a couple years. The great young core of the future we kept hearing about 3-4 years ago has not quiet panned out yet

    Probably because all our arguments have proved true. Funny that my main argument with my friends against Westbrook back in that MVP-battle was that he did EVERYTHING, to the detriment to his team. He made Victor Oladipo look like a scrub. This year, he is finally taking on a less all-encompassing role on offense and the team is doing a lot better as a result.

    Funny how my same friends holding Westbrook's jock strap during that season now complain to me that Harden "selfish and not fun to watch" because he does everything on offense, even though he can actually manage to do it efficiently while winning games.

    Absolutely. PG has been the best player on OKC this season. Props to him for that - finally looking like a legit NBA superstar again

    Wolves beating OKC was wonderful! Thank you Wolves!

    Now OKC has the Spurs TWICE coming up. Should be interesting. Love that OKC finally is playing a non-cupcake schedule.

    Not only do I remember that series, I saved that thread in my hope chest in hopes I would feel that same amount of jubilation again.
