Sorry for the short little clip, but I thought this was a pretty cool/intense reminder of how hard this guy plays. We should be able to start playing a little smarter but you can’t teach toughness like this!

I appreciate how much he attacks the basket, but he is going to shave years off the back end of it with 2/3 more seasons like this one. Never rests, plays injured, drives with reckless abandon. That is a recipe for a shorter career than it has to be.
That was his only basket in the 4Q and the Wolves only made basket while Ant was in during the 4Q. Meanwhile the Wolves had 6 turnovers (Ant with 3 of them) in the 4Q.
The Wolves scored 14 points in the 4Q and shot 13 free throws (Ant went 3 for 7 from the free throw line).
Shit happens. We’ve stolen games that we probably should’ve had no business winning.
Thunder are a good team. I think talent wise the wolves edge them, but as a team I think OKC is more cohesive and that bit us in the fourth. There’s still 40 games left and the wolves have been the 1 seed for the vast majority. It’ll be a tight race for the 1-4 between us, LAC, Denver and OKC
Big thing here is we’re taking care of teams under .500 which we have a lot coming up. Ideally we can use those games as cleaning up turnovers. Unfortunately we’re always gonna be a team prone to making dumb plays
Everyone needs to remember it’s the NBA. Best players on the planet. Unless mark madsen is shooting 3s, every team is dangerous. We’ve adopted this mindset vs blowing it vs sub .500 teams like previous wolves teams.
