Itās working, but if they waited one year later, all they need give up is one 1st . Instead they gave up like six 1st , Jarret vando and Kessler . Wolves GM Tim Connelly made the 2nd worst trade in nba history behind nets Billy king Celtics trade. Connelly need to go š„¾
Guess I was wrong. Fully expected KAT to have to be traded for this team to get to be a contender. Still early in the season but we'll see how this squad performs come playoff time.
Man. Itās such a bummer. I think theyāre the best team in the nba this year and Iām a Nuggets die hard. They are absolutely insane- especially because their bench is great too.
from a lifelong wolves fan its feel great to see our team playing consistently great basketball. a solid product night in and night out, really makes me happy.
Did they overpay for Rudy? Yeah. But that's how markets work sometimes. You can't dictate costs every instance just like I can't decide what gas costs when I pull of the freeway.
Is Minnesota finally getting what they paid for? Lol yeah. It's kind of messed up how everybody piled up on Gobert as being the most one sided trade in years when historic evidence screamed pump the breaks but we all did it.
This is all awesome for Rudy, his fans, and especially Minnesota and their prospects. Haven't been discussed this much since Garnett and it's epic. Utah fan watching Minnesota here on out. Hopefully Conley (we only had him a few years but enough to love him) and Gobert help vet up a foundational springboard for Anthony Edwards.
Most intriguing team in the West (over OKC) if not the League.
This year's iteration of the Wolves has really given me an appreciation for how hard it is to play consistent solid D in the NBA. I feel like most teams are pretty content to run the score up to 120 and then start playing D with 2 minutes left in the game. Completely unfounded take, but most of the games this season it's just felt like the opposing team has to claw their way towards 100 points, so that even in the close games their top scorers are gassed and can't trade shots with Ant or Kat
It really doesnāt feel real seeing the team Iāve rooted for play competent basketball Iām just so used to them choking away games and getting blown out
6. Number of times MIN has shot 50% or better while holding their opponent < 40% FG in the same game. The rest of the NBA has combined to do it 10x. 20 teams have yet to do it. Last season MEM & CLE led the NBA doing it 6x in 82g. MIN has done it 6x in 16g.
How the wolves 1st seed I thought people said they made worst trade in nba history clearly if that was the case they would be mid like the clippers are . Mfs gave away role players & picks that will with Utah draft history not amount to much I'll take the dpoy over role players & draft picks that maybe you hit on but also just as likely you end up drafting a Wendell Moore type guy who never even plays because your trying to win not develop young guys .
I don't think it's working since they'd be the same team or only slightly worse with WALKER KESSLER. If they started Naz Reid and had Walker Kessler coming of the bench you can argue this team would be even better not to mention all the assets they gave away in that trade.
As much as I dislike gobert, I hope this team makes something happen come playoff time. If my lakers donāt have a Cinderella season again like last year, I hope itās the wolves

Everybody is beating the Grizzlies right now was hilarious š¤£š¤£š¤£š¤£
I dont think it will happen but I wish we could get rid of Shake Milton in a trade. He is bad

Gobert fans rejoicing
Day 2 of asking Funky to bring back the "NBA Plus Stuff" podcast
LETSSS GOOOOOOOOOO WOLVES BACK WOLVES BACK!!!!
Naz Reid.
Best in the west wins only thing that matter they not done either
From someone who has watched every single Timberwolves game this year very good breakdown. Summed up what theyāve been doing perfectly

Let's goooo funky watching the Wolves baby!
No i refuseššš
ALL THOSE PUNDITS GONNA HAVE TO EAT CROW!!!

i still remember people were trashing the trade
T pups can run multiple line ups their winning without McDaniels. Ant still the right pick at #1!!!!
From Minneapolis itās great to have Funky talking about us!! šš½
Does anyone else find themselves perpetually swapping between Barry McCockiner content during NFL season and AFunkyDiabetic content during NBA season?
Itās weird seeing the team I cheer for being good. Is this what itās like for other teams?
Huffing and puffing running works in regular season, come playoffs they will be too exhausted and spent.
Good luck, but don't get hopes high.
One thing Rudy hasn't had on past teams were legit perimeter defenders. He has that and now he can really show off his defensive talents
It really doesnāt feel real seeing the team Iāve rooted for play competent basketball Iām just so used to them choking away games and getting blown out
KAT is showing us why heās great. Heās had to make the most adjustments and is still finding a way to thrive.
6.

The rest of the NBA has combined to do it 10x.
20 teams have yet to do it.
Last season MEM & CLE led the NBA doing it 6x in 82g.
MIN has done it 6x in 16g.
9 game winning streak and no one is talking about the magic š¤¦
Jaden McDaniels needs more praise his defense alone is top tier
How the turntables…
Timberwolves are championship contenders

We got 12 games in this month hopefully we go 8-4 in this month
I don't think it's working since they'd be the same team or only slightly worse with WALKER KESSLER. If they started Naz Reid and had Walker Kessler coming of the bench you can argue this team would be even better not to mention all the assets they gave away in that trade.
i think i can speak for all wolves fans this season feels special
Great channel. Elite analysis, great comment section. Top tier
Really Knowledgeablešš¼
As much as I dislike gobert, I hope this team makes something happen come playoff time. If my lakers donāt have a Cinderella season again like last year, I hope itās the wolves
maybe its Conley all along. but one offseason is all they needed
They better not trade nobody
I told all the Wolves fans and dusty casuals that Rudyās issue were temporary and not entirely his fault
Kat always getting injured. Guy is soft š¤¦āāļø
I heard somebody talk about this team like they were the Bulls when they had the 1 seed and I justā¦.wow
Say it louder for the folks in the back!!!
why do all of my favorite nba youtubers not want to talk about the magic
Iām sorry but they have a history of being MIA in the post season. Iāll believe in them when I see it š
