Not great. Gonna be a tough game to win against the knickerbockers with ANT out.

And of course the twolves can’t miss to start the game.

After the 1st, Wolves shoot 75% from 3 and 72.7% overall. The Knicks? 43% and 60%.

Wolves lead 42-32.

There might have been more D played in the NBA all star game than this game right now

And seemingly every time the Wolves attempt to play defense they send a Knick to the line.

NBA wants the bigger market to win. Clearly biased against the twolves.


I have no idea as I am not watching the game.

Evened-up in the 2nd Half. Wolves finally quit reaching in.

 

[From the Parkinglot]

Maybe KAT doesn’t like us anymore.

 

[GopherWeatherGuy]

Really thought they were going to let that slip away, but that's a big win

 

[Iceland12]

Wolves beat Knicks 140-134. Wolves had 7 players in double figures led by Prince who had 35. He also was 8-8(!) from 3.

Minnesota shot 64% from the field, 58% from 3 and 75% from the free throw line.

They are now 36-37and NY falls to 42-31

 

[From the Parkinglot]

If Taurean Prince is gonna shoot that like you damn sure better win the game.

 

[short ornery norwegian]

I thought Randle was going to put up 70 pts. I think he had 26 just in the 3rd quarter. But he went to the bench for a couple minutes and couldn't get back in the groove when he returned to the game.

to the Wolves' credit, that is the type of game they've been losing, but they were able to regroup and pull it out.

They tried to up six with the ball. Conley dribbles it right to the defense, then an and one. I thought here we go again! Anderson to the rescue!

He's been wearing Yankee stuff the whole time he's been here. I'd wager this was a cap he had custom made as a nod to his LA girlfriend.

He seems like that kind of guy.

I want a picture of him pretending to shovel a huge driveway like ARoid did. Only then will I accept him as one of ours.

This pass by Conley was ridiculous

Gobert can't jump over a twig, but he never brings the ball down to his waist as so many bigs do.

Guess there is something to playing together for a long time.

We comin

I haven't been following Towns at all...has he been a full participant at practices? Or are they just going to let him go from no basketball for 5 months to starting?

Not a full participant, I don't think. He's been working in some capacity, both with the team and without since before the All-Star Break (if not longer). Which is a big part of the questions about when he's coming back.

Wolves host Atlanta tonight. Looks like KAT is gonna play.

So, I saw an item - might have been in a tweet - where KAT was talking about his injury. according to what I read, KAT said that he was rehabbing and about 6 weeks after the initial injury, had "a major setback." sounds like he's saying he re-injured the calf and that is supposedly the reason why he wound up sitting out so long. the info also said it was a torn calf, not a strain.

and that may all be accurate. So why couldn't the team be honest with the fans about the situation?

torn calf = strained calf.

I pulled my hammie once playing b-ball. I kept re-pulling it by coming back too soon. Doesnt surprise me it happened to KAT. Not sure why they were so secretive about it
