FIRST TAKE | Timberwolves are the BEST team in the NBA after crushing Kawhi, Clippers 121-100 – Perk

Association now the t-wolves used a dominant second half to demolish the Clippers 121 100 in a battle of two of the top teams in the west the Timberwolves turned an intense first half into a route by outscoring the Clippers 40-19 in the third cooking on offense stifling defense now staying in

The midwest the Bucks steady progress on defense shined in their route of the Nuggets after initially struggling under coach Doc Rivers the Bucks put together one of their most complete wins of the season of 11295 victory over the nuggets for a second straight win all right

Shannon you’re up first hi guys perk and windy are back hey hey no snow day for you two I think you guys are in La uh perk no I’ll start with you Shannon my bad uh bigger statement Minnesota or Milwaukee Minnesota they went to they went to the Clippers building and beat

The team that had going 27- six over the last 33 games and did a demolition job on them these are two top team teams in the Western Conference and they went to your house and they beat you down uh I don’t really know what else to say

Anthony Ed had didn’t have a great night he was I think it was one for 11 from the three-point line but like you said that dominant third quarter for outscored him 40 to the 19 and they did a job the Clippers had looked I mean if you had watched the Clippers over the

Last 33 games you say that team’s coming out of the West because that’s how well they had played kawi leard had played himself into the MVP discussion nicolea yic uh Shay Gil and then you have to put kawhai or Giannis in that 34 spot that’s how well

They had been playing they had been playing James Harden had ingratiated himself in the offense doing a great job of Distributing the basketball and when they need him to score he could score and we know Paul George those guys was playing great but what the Timberwolves

Did by going into the Crypt and beating them down that was a much bigger win than the Nuggets losing on the road in Milwaukee the Timberwolves they showing you something perk let me let me tell you why you’re wrong U let me tell you why you’re wrong you

Said that their record was 27 and six the Clippers okay one of those six losses came against the timber wolves about three weeks ago when it comes down to the Minnesota Timberwolves they have beaten every top team in the NBA they handed the nuggets the the Nuggets their

First loss they handed the Celtics their first loss they beat the Clippers twice they beat they have beaten the Bucks they have beaten every single contending team in the league so it wasn’t surprising and I believe that the Clippers right now the last six games that they played I mean the Minnesota

Timo is the last six games that they played against the Clippers they won five out of six if I’m not mistaken but when it comes down to the Bucks I said this on NBA Countdown last night and Molly they called me everything but a

Child of God when I said this I said the Bucks were in in a MWI situation because they have been battling the flu all season long but they kept going to Walgreens and CVS trying to get that over the- count of medicine all of a sudden they got their antibiotics last

Night and when you think about the Milwaukee Bucks when you labeled as a contender you’re the defended chaps are coming into your house and you need that signature win damn it they proved that last night and that duo of of Brook Lopez and jiannis too anchoring that defense against jic last night without

Chris milon was a beautiful thing to uh watch and it was a statement win and it was a must win and they got it done under doc r a must win a must hey hey Wendy a must win before the allstar game damn okay go ahead Wendy take off you

Didn’t say you you you didn’t say you didn’t say that when ad said hey say you didn’t say that when ad said it when they said they needed a must win against Oklahoma City after the End season tournament bro the Lakers the Lakers had won four games at that point of course it

Was no come on perk you know with with Shannon with Shannon every Laker game is a must-win game they’re playing the Pistons tonight must-win game for HK okay uh the answer to Molly’s question is that it was a bigger win for the bucks but I want to just say something

Real quick about the Timberwolves size size size this is a big bad strong defense defensive team and their size gives teams problems they’re three and0 against the nuggets and Clippers this year the Clippers as awesome as they are have issues with really big teams it’s their big challenge against the Nuggets

Eventually they just lost last week to the clip to the uh the Cavs because they play with so much size and they defend defense travels they’re the best road team in my opinion in the NBA their record shows that but the Bucks before the last two games had lost uh five of

The first six games that Doc Rivers coached their defense wasn’t showing much improvement they are able to get back-to-back games where they give up less than 100 points that’s the first time that’s happened for them in three years so for the bucks to get that win even though it’s at home even though

It’s in February to get a couple of good defensive performances in a row that was huge for them oh perk I just want you to know just because I wasn’t in the basketball segments I was watching what you said you say the Clippers are the

Team to beat in the west you call kawhai Little you say Kawai Michael Jordan Leonard oh he the MVP and hey hear me out I want y’all to hear me out now you know oh big perk you know big perk the swam you know I know all things and now

All of a sudden they go out there and they beat the brakes off them and now you want to poo poo the Minnesota timber wolves win no no I’m not poooo I’m saying I I didn’t seen this story before but am I picking the Minnesota Timberwolves to

Beat the Clippers in the seven game series I’m not not saying that it wouldn’t go six or seven games it would be a great series but what I’m telling you un is is that the Bucks needed medicine man they been sick all season long dealing with everything all saying

Needed a little medicine hey guys I hate to cut you off I got I got no he’s sick for real he’s he actually sick I got to hit the top of the hour but I like the energy all bringing let’s let’s keep that same energy in the second hour okay that’s
