    Haha, we'll Midwestern-guilt ourselves into blowing up the team.

    Still No Statement from Ben Johnson

    This discussion thread seems to have been misinterpreted. It's not a matter of whether he should make some kind of public statement; it's merely an observation that he hasn't, and wondering what's going on with him since his dismissal. It's only natural to wonder.

    Western Conference Finals Minnesota Timberwolves vs Oklahoma City Thunder

    I've said it before, and I'll say it forever as the father of a former competitive gymnast. Gymnastics judging is way more consistent and way more objective than basketball officiating. The way basketball games are officiated determines so many games and playoff series.

    Western Conference Finals Minnesota Timberwolves vs Oklahoma City Thunder

    The only path to defeat at this point is turnovers and opponent's three-point field goals. Avoid those things.

    Still No Statement from Ben Johnson

    That's no more likely to happen than it was with Pitino. As a general rule, the fans here had little ill will and few cross words for Richard. I seem to have a higher opinion of Gopherholers than you do.

    KIRK: Aren't you the one who always says a little suffering is good for the soul? MCCOY: I never say that.

    Still No Statement from Ben Johnson

    I do believe he has something to build on if he wants to rebuild a coaching career. He has a good deal of knowledge and ability, and his experience here for sure added a wealth of knowledge and knowhow to what he had coming in. He just did things out of order in his career because of the...

    You beat me to it! This streak has taken the champagne out of the cellar and put it on ice on full view. I really, sincerely hate to admit this, but this extraordinary streak is more remarkable than any singular positive accomplishment could be. I mean, teams win conference and league...

    Still No Statement from Ben Johnson

    I haven't wanted to dwell on the past, but it's strange enough that it's worth noting. He hasn't posted on Twitter since November 20th; didn't even post during the season after Thanksgiving. Even just that is curious. The way he's fallen off the face of the earth since his tenure ended...

    I have never once in my life had to switch to air conditioning and then switch back to heating. This will be a first.

    Golden State Warriors/Minnesota Timberwolves

    I've watched OKC a little in this Denver series. They're objectively awesome. But they ARE beatable, as evidenced by Denver having beaten them, haha. You gotta come with your best game for 48 minutes, though, and I'm not sure these Wolves have that in them. Would love to be proven wrong. That's...

    The Timberwolves and the Lynx are the class of the local pro market.

    Williams Arena named 33rd best atmosphere in CBB.

    I remember the student section being in the upper deck until the renovation in the mid 90s, at which time it was moved to the end, next to the pep band. Do I remember that right?

    Williams Arena named 33rd best atmosphere in CBB.

    Some of those are questionable. Is Mackey really a better atmosphere than Assembly Hall or Breslin? Same with whatever they're calling the Illinois place these days: is that really better than Hinkle? It's good to be recognized, though, especially since we haven't been ourselves for some time.

    Rex in Toy Story: "Now I have guilt!" Seriously, you still have to get through the #1 or #4 seed, which is no small task. Whatever the cause, Ant is clearly not at his physical best right now. And you haven't even vanquished the Warriors yet, and any team that plays D the way they do can beat...

    Big Ten Basketball: Way-too-early Big Ten Power Rankings entering 2025-26 season (16. Minnesota)

    It's a rough-and-tumble league. I don't blame anyone for picking the Gophs down that low. That said, I have the over. Like last year, when I said the Gophers have too much to finish last: they DID have too much to finish last.

    Wasn't Aaron Robinson 5'-10", and that was probably generous?
