If you could witness any historical event, what would it be?🌺
What books, movies, or music have influenced you?🧡
You are a master of your craft🍒
I often forget about everything in the world while watching you. Thank you! 🍓
Can't choke out da goober
Warriors could of drafted ant man but the front office is retarded.
The only reason they're better this year is obvious. They're all healthy. There was no power struggle. Their best players just didn't play very many games together last year. Now they've got a full off season together, and they're proving the Gobert trade haters wrong.

Still gotta take the steps, but Wolves could be a good team during the playoffs.
Or they are national TV because of the Wemby matchup the league wants to show off their highly touted #1 pick lmao
I love this ESPN team! Some of these shows with Malika, Chiney, Kendrick, and Richard feel like a dat at the picnic. I watch one sometime last year that had me cracking up and just loving the chemistry. Malika gets a lot of hate from insecure people who hate to see successful Black women – especially one who speaks out against misogynoir and other types of sexism – but she is doing a great job. Perk stays saying some crazy mess – and Richard is surprisingly witty – and Chiney brings a great balance, being a professional ball player herself. Keep up the great work.
Tim Connelly got absolutely blasted around the league for the Gobert trade. But since he was the primary architect of the championship Nuggets–a shame he didn't get a ring because he deserved one–and now another up and coming team in the Wolves, maybe he actually knows what he's doing after all. He's excellent at roster construction, puts together long and athletic teams and is patient. Fans and analysts should praise him now with the same vigor they trashed him with.
They do not have a lot of assets. They have almost no picks and are beyond capped out after this season with multiple key free agents. You cant call the trade a win or a loss until 2029. Its incomplete until then or the Wolves win a chip.
Somebody got murdered in Fixins Soul Food DTLA a week ago
Regular season champs. They have to come through us in the playoffs.
Naz and Jaden didn't even play in the playoffs last year. If they can get a 1-4 seed this year they will be tough
If this team stays healthy reduces points off turnovers and second chance points they win 55-60 games and are a serious contender.
Sugar coating “questioning the trade” lol come on crew.
Malika and crew already have nba today, why is it the exact same people who do nba countdown
As a wolves fan that watched every game i can tell you 100% there was never any "power struggle". If you are referring to Ant vs Kat. Lol. This is something the media made up out of thin air. Rather than the real issue from last season which was missing Kat for 53 games. Rudy having a bad back from international play. Thus playing hurt all season. And learning a brand new totally different team chemistry and an on court style of play.
It was never a power struggle. Dogshit analysis.
Wolves baby
Wolves fans know Rudy is the biggest reason we're 16-4
I love my squad 🐺 for my squad I go hard 🐺🌲🔥
NBA I want you to know Anthony Edwards is my favorite NBA player, current MVP and reason ratings are up. Thanks
Richard Jefferson is the biggest Timberwolves hater of all time!
Draymond not liking this one bit
Last year Mike Conley said "It takes about a year to learn to play with Rudy" and it seems that's kinda correct
Mike Conley is the perfect compliment for Rudy Gobert, and one of the most underrated PGs in the NBA. He is the head of the snake for sure, for the wolves.
As a wolves fan. Saying there better because of power struggle and knowing who is top dog is utterly ridiculous. Its because they are healthy and because we have mike conley instead of dlo giving us much better chemistry
Ant is the best thing that ever happened to KAT so of course he embraced him. The only help KAT had was Jimmy Jackass for one brief season. I’m sure KAT is happy to be on a winning team for once.
Ant on his part is mature beyond his years. He was constantly deferring to KAT and hyping up his teammates. KAT being injured forced Ant to stop deferring last year and that’s good for us.
There is no power struggle. We got multiple superstars- Batman, Superman, Ironman, etc… If Kat struggles, ant steps up, Rudy steps up, Naz steps up, and so on. We got the entire avengers crew and everyone is eating!
What power struggle? The reason is they are healthy and they switched up their defense to maximize our defensive capabilities.
There wasn’t a power struggle. That’s how I know the media full of it
CHIP SZN
Imagine they go 16-4 in the playoffs too
Bro how do grown professionals have no clue what they are even saying kat literally talked with the kfan (local radio) and he was asked that and he said no him and ant or bros and they play with a teammate mindset
Saying there was a “power struggle” between Ant and Kat is crazy lol. There has never been any issues between Kat and Ant. We are better because we just have more time together and health this year.
