Western Conference Finals Minnesota Timberwolves vs Oklahoma City Thunder


Conley
“Now we’ve set a standard for ourselves, like, why aren’t we playing with this type of effort every night? So, if we don’t do it the next game, that’s on us. It has nothing to do with them.”
 

Amazing what can happen if Wolves are allowed to play defense and not have a foul called for getting near someone.
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.
 


Just such a horrible call there. If a dribbler initiates the contact and then flops it shouldn't be a foul on the defender . NBA needs to deal with this.
 


Another flopper gets a foul. Just ridiculous. Could do this all game. Will stop now
 








Getting hammered on the glass and turning it over not a recipe for success
 




Why is OKC able to poke (or whatever you want to call it) the ball out of our hands so often??

Are we especially terrible at preventing that for some reason, or are they exceptionally good at it, or ...?
 

Damn. Feels like any time we have a chance to tie, the shot won't go. Then goes back to bouncing around 3-7 lead for OKC.
 


Just cause Dort falls down does not mean it was a foul. That “moving” screen could be called 100 times a game. The difference is the defender doesn’t fall down. Big call in the momentum of the game.
 




This was fun to watch, no matter what. Fighting for their lives, scrapping.

This game I agree with Truthseeker's early post about no shame in losing to this team.

I disagreed with that for the first two games. But not this game.

OKC is so f------g good and unfortunately, only going to get better.

Injury will be the only thing stopping them.
 





That last shot should have been .6 seconds left on the clock not 3. horrible.

64 points from the bench, 51% shooting from the field, 18-3pt makes, and we f’ing lose. Edwards and especially Randle were awful tonight with 10 turnovers and horrid shooting.
