    Feels good to comfortably win games like this that we’re supposed to win.

    Still seems crazy we’re 12-4! Let’s keep this train rolling!

  2. Underdog_To_Wolf

    Hard to complain about a win when leading wire to wire. I can’t believe the Minnesota Timberwolves are 12-4, feels like a fucking dream

  3. dosnetlive

    The grizzlies are a free bounceback game generator

  4. pollinium

    This is a 40 pt blowout with some even officiating, my goodness

  5. Thoroughly enjoyed that light Sunday evening television viewing.

  6. Held them under 100 AND got the much needed W!! Go Wolves!!! AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOI

  7. EsotericPotato

    I think Miller has a shot to be a legit rotation guy next season. Dude is always making plays on both ends when he’s out there. He effected almost every possession on offense and defense when he was out there tonight.

  8. organized_meat

    The Grizz have 3 wins this season and we weren’t one of them LFG!

  9. ThisGuySucks42069

    I’ve never experienced a season as a Wolves fan where I expect to take care of business and win. Fucking love it.

    And for all those still bitching about the picks for Gobert, we have a trove of so much young talent already… Miller and Minnott could be lethal in the next couple of years

  10. Crystalvibes

    Both Towns and Gobert on limited minutes because of fouls, and we still found a way to adjust and pull out a very solid win. This team is different. That would have been the end of us before.

  11. GenkiZidar

    Good W, glad to see Miller is developing nicely. Another dub under 100 LET’S GO WOLVES!!!!!

  12. flimsydribbles_74415

    Nowell. The only Grizzly in the positive this game.

    I liked the early game time. Mucho

  13. Rapey_Keebler_Elves

    I wish this defense was around when I was a kid.

    It could have stopped my dad from leaving the driveway.

  14. FlyingScissor

    Took care of business on a short trip. Held them under 100. No real drama. Good day at the office.

  15. finntrago

    Nice couple minutes from Leonard Miller there at the end

  16. bebejugga

    Mike Conley is amazing. Calming presence that keeps the team under control. The 3s!!

  17. Knightbear49

    Absolutely loved destroying Memphis. Let’s do it again to OKC on Tuesday

  18. EsotericPotato

    This team is building some serious sweat equity rn. They lost like 15 games last season to tanking teams and teams that were starting their best players.

    To go in and handle business night after night against these undermanned team is such a difference maker.

  19. KnowledgePrevious

    My favorite part about this team is their professional approach. I feel very confident that they are going to beat teams that they should. That is very very unusual for a Timberwolves team:

  20. DetrimentalContent

    It’s always interesting watching the young bench guys get thrown in and they’re instantly doing everything in their power to showcase their skills.

    We’ve had young guys before but never this many sitting outside of the rotation and it’s such an amusing culture shift to reignite the game at its closing moments.

  21. AdmiralCrunch12

    Don’t mean to kick a man while he’s down…but I was saying JJJ sucked back when the Grizz were good so I’ll say it now.

    Great W

  22. circamidnight

    I can start consuming endless wolves content again yay!!

  23. Slim-Ticket

    I hope they’re cryogenically freezing Mike Conley between games. This man needs to stay here forever

  24. JustWinBabys

    Would be nice to see Kat get to the line a few more times. His whistle has got to be one of the worst in the league. JJJ and Biyombo shot 10 free throw’s each while Kat had 3. Kat was getting fouled a lot

  25. dogfosterparent

    Really not impressed by JJJ, he plays so small and doesn’t have good touch around the rim. Think his counting defensive stats got him a dpoy when the all around play was probably behind other guys. Bane is legit and a perfect #2 but JJJ will need to be a 3rd option for his whole career I bet.
