    If Marc Lore won’t commission a statue of TBJ, I will

  2. irishace88

    Did everyone enjoy watching the FT contest tonight??

    Great all-around team win. Love that we are protecting our home court!

    Hopefully McDaniels doesn’t miss much time but NAW stepped up big in his place tonight.

  3. Great balanced effort from entire team, I hope we keep it up against 76ers.

  4. crapfacemcgee69

    For the life of me, why doesn’t Rudy shoot free throws underhanded? Literally nothing to lose. The rest of the league already hates him, he won’t lose respect.

  5. Wolvesin7

    Knicks are a solid team and we just came out and handled business. Can’t believe this is my life.

  6. Underdog_To_Wolf

    Rudy Gobert is a good basketball player tbh

  7. Vibes are at an all time high. Good game boys let’s keep showing we’re a force to be reckoned with!!

  8. TommyOfTheShelbys

    SloMo when that 2nd free throw was missed 😂😂

  9. Firesword52

    That was the least fun 17 point win I’ve ever seen

  10. THEY PLAYED THE AWOOOO SONG IN THE ARENA!!!

    ONE OF US

    ONE OF US

  11. FlyingScissor

    Great win, defense showed up again. Wolves back at #1 in the west

  12. horse_renoir13

    Excellent team win tonight. KAT and Ant obviously delivering with Rudy in tow, but the bench played great overall.

  13. Saberwolf1748

    Great game, though need Kat to shoot more than 10 shots if he’s having a super efficient night

  14. Mayosapian

    Time for another win streak apparently.

    It feels so damn good to watch this team right now.

  15. darthxader

    I thought Kat played really well in the first half and then midway through the quarter I saw he only had 12 points and was super confused

  16. Oxyquatzal

    I’ve been enjoying this whole “winning” thing we do now

  17. dosnetlive

    Knicks on the last game of a 5 game road trip, sure, but they still had their legs (at least Brunson, Randle, and Robinson did). Great defensive performance that I’m slowly coming to expect

  18. Global-Direction-657

    The free throws really started to get annoying at the end

    Screw Thibs

    Prayers for Jaden

    Let’s go Wolves!

  19. Benjammin341

    Hopefully Jaden is okay but what a nice win! Knicks aren’t bad but our defense was stellar again and it seems like they’re clicking.

  20. JustSeriousEnough

    I know the Wolves won, but refs were something tonight. Never a fan of KAT fouling out, but he was on the bad end of just 3-4 brutally blind foul calls against him.

  21. Intelligent_Pain_174

    I counted 12 made shots for the Knicks in the 2H. Good thing the free throws were pouring.

  22. SqueezedTuna

    ‘The Minnesota Timberwolves defeat the refs in bs foul onslaught’ **

  23. ndmaynard

    I really expected a better defensive game from NY considering we were both top ranked defenses as of a week ago.

  24. Gonna miss Jaden but TBJ def deserves play time love the energy

  25. BennyC023

    Mike, Rudy and NAW all had great +/- tonight. KAT too

  26. twinberwolf

    I don’t even know what to say anymore. I can’t believe my Timberwolves are playing like this.

  27. thestereo300

    I was looking over at the Knicks sub and they were talking about our defense and someone said…and I quote.

    “The trees were speaking Minnesotanese.”

    I don’t what the hell that means by lol at this phrasing.

  28. pillbuggery

    I can’t believe this is happening. Wolves holding the first seed against a decent team.

  29. wingnut1957

    Julius Randle and Nicola Jokic are two of the toughest big men to defend in the NBA.

    I thought KAT and Naz played very well.

    Rudy was the difference in this game.

  30. redjabroni

    Loved to see the Wally Garza eyebrow connection. Even the commentators from New York are shot posting.

  31. WembyandTheWolves

    KAT was losing his cool but he got shafted on st least 2 calls in the 4th

  32. I think it’s been said before but Conley’s impact on this team cannot be overstated. He can totally come in and get us back on track. When the game was close nobody was hitting anything. He came in and nailed a clutch 3 and floor generalled the shit out of the game. It looked like NY was about to go on a run too but he totally got us to play more sound. Fucking love that guy.
