    All Things 2024-25 Minnesota Timberwolves In-Season Thread

    The Wolves stubbornly keep attempting 3s like it is their only way to score points. They have guys in Rudy, Julius, Naz, Ant, and Jaden that are good at the hoop. Conley used to be great at the runners. I see him attempting a lot more 3s this season instead of driving the lane and either taking...

    7 Game Winning Streak!!!!

    As someone (maybe Michael Grady) said, this isn't the worst thing for the Wolves. As a team that does better on the road, to be the 8th seed could be exactly what the doctor ordered. Of course, it's rare that this ever works out in the history of sports.

    Reports on Spring Practices

    I'm not sure that a spring game solves any outstanding problem. It does add to wear and tear on players' bodies.

    Gophers Women's Hockey 2024-25 Season

    What did you all think of the end-of-regulation situation in the title game yesterday? They said that Ohio State's player closed her hand around the puck. They showed the replay plenty of times and I watched her fingers stay 100% open until they disappeared under her body. I don't know how they...

    Lots of killer take-aways from last night. We are so streaky on defense lately. Ant playing hero trying to drive the basket is fine, but he's either got to make the shot or draw the foul - or both. He's doing neither. We missed critical FTs down the stretch, dried up from beyond the arc, and...

    I wonder what the Pelicans are going to do on Thursday night - MOA, Juicy Lucy's, ice fish for crappies??? Time to start a new winning streak.

    Agreed. Toppin had a career night launching 3s from tough locations. I took was wondering why they didn't have Clark out there playing defense. At least they put NAW out there, but he gave up Toppin's game-winning 3 in the corner. They played hard but it was a lot to ask for a back-to-back game...

    Naz Reid is expected to opt out of his contract this summer and enter free agency

    The Wolves have an embarrassment of riches right now. Lots of good players and a deep bench. Win a title and it might make a player think about leaving. Don't win a title and they'll think, "Might as well make the cash somewhere else and not win a title."

    Naz Reid is expected to opt out of his contract this summer and enter free agency

    Start on half of the teams, yes. Star on half of the teams....definitely not. Naz plays hard, gets good blocks, and has a quick 3pt release and is surprisingly accurate for a big. However, he is streaky and not a consistently good defender or scorer. If he were a star, he wouldn't have missed...

    Let's knock the Badgers off of their throne. They're 36-1-2 this season and have beaten the Gophers in seven straight games. Streaks are meant to end...

    Adding insult to injury, took me 65 minutes to get out of parking garage last night

    I've never parked on campus. I took my 85yr old father on Saturday night. We parked across 35W and walked. As we walked along 5th street, I picked out a white Tesla and said we would beat it to the highway. It had barely moved by the time we crested the bridge into Drinkytown. We hopped into my...

    Why not be more skeptical of a newly hired head football coach here at Minnesota and more supportive of the existing coach?

    Can Minnesota rise to the top and be national champions again? Of course! Will it happen?? It is highly, highly unlikely. The more likely scenario is that Minnesota will remain a third-tier football program in the Big Ten. We will only do well when we have coaches like Fleck and Kill that can...

    My email to GopherSports

    I'm pretty sure that the Athletic Department has an email filter on this morning, sending all of the hate mail directly into the Trash folder.

    Y'all are blaming the wrong thing for that loss...

    This is the correct answer. Any coordinator with a throw-the-ball scheme knows that they will be a square peg in a round hole. PJ has a MO that eliminates most of the quality candidates before he even starts to look.
