Minnesota Timberwolves lose lead, drop heartbreaker in Play-In Tournament to the Los Angeles Lakers



The Minnesota Timberwolves led by as many as 15 points and got a monster first half from both Karl-Anthony Towns and Mike Conley but ultimately fell short in overtime in a Play-In Tournament loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. Ben Beecken (@bbeecken) breaks down all the storylines, including what the Lakers did to limit Towns in the second half, and why the Wolves’ offense went completely stagnant.

  1. Has to be the dumbest organization on the planet. Suspending Gobert and the 4th quarter coaching was horrible. Just like last season against the Grizzlies! The coach needs to be fired! Edwards choked big time ‼️

  2. Ants fell n hurt his shlder n head. Literally. Think he's also emo on Kyle-Rudy quarrel.

  3. The reason Kat doesn’t get talked about is the way he plays he had Austin reaves on him and didn’t demand the ball he’s soft

  4. Finch has to go. He’s not a coach that knows how to take control when the games in the balance

  5. Ben know basketball very well he don’t used emotion on who he likes he always honest about players and the game good job bb

  6. The problem is the team energy. The Timberwolves looked defeated in the 3rd quarter, and the Lakers had fire in their eyes.

  7. Too many turnovers…It's coaching no matter what y'all say, Finch can coach-but he just doesn't have the sharp-minded ability, and pedigree to adjust in real time game time situations (ball & player movement)! His inability to recognize the little nuance to get this team over the hump has hurt them in critical moments of the game!

  8. I DEFY YOU, SIR- to find enough TIBER-WOLVES fans to fit in 1/2 a school bus- and I'll show you a fanbase…
    ANT sucks
    Gobert sucks
    KAT – (is good, unfortunately he's beset on all sides by WHINEY-ASS F-UPS who choke come TNT time- he ain't no KG)

  9. They looked completely dysfunctional when ever Kat was off the floor. Didn't really look like they knew what to do and Antman should have been trying to drive the whole game 💯
