All Things 2025-2026 Minnesota Timberwolves In-Season Thread


All the lakers needed to pass the wolves was a pulse at center.

There are massive defensive problems with the wolves. it's score at will.

I said all of last year......do not sign naz Reid. He was worthless the last half of last year. He can't defend a potted plant and doesn't rebound. 25 fuking million a year.

Naz definitely needs help on defense when he is out there. He is a sieve (Randle is as well). When Berenger is ready, he needs to play.
Naz's defense Friday night was even worse than usual. It looked like the Lakers were hunting him. I hope Finch gets assertive in developing Berenger for the non Rudy minutes.

I love Naz. He's my favorite Wolves player, but he has regressed. If he isn't shooting 3's at a high clip, he's basically unplayable.
 

Naz sister was murdered a couple of months ago. Probably going through a lot. I know they are pro athletes getting paid quite a sum. Hopefully he has a good game tonight.

Last year the Wolves played 82 games. No opponent in any of those games shot a higher FG percentage than the Lakers the other night. .592
 




So ant is hurt now. Hopefully precautionary but you never like a hammy injury for a guy who relies on explosiveness
 



That was not an impressive win.
The Pacers team we played last night was without 5 of their top 6 players from last year:

Haliburton (Injured)
Turner (Left in FA)
Mathurin (Rest)
Nembhard (Injured)
McConnell (Injured)

After the last five (5) days of all too familiar MN sports, I would’ve proudly accepted a forfeit.
 




Just win. Get the rotation figured out. Every win you can get with Ant not playing is a good one

The Wolves lost at home, at full strength, in mid March last season to a depleted Pacers team after an 8 game winning streak. That team was missing:

Siakam
Haliburton
Turner
Nesmith

It was an ugly win, but it was a win without Ant against a team we were 0-2 against last season.
 




Sounds like 1 week and re-evaluate.
 

This may take a while. I know from personal experience that hamstrings take what seems like forever to heal. (I was never a 24 year old superstar athlete with amazing powers of recovery and access to the very best health care.) I hope they make him wait to return until he's fully healed.
