KAT with 20 second half points and three major back-to-back 3s in clutch time. Despite fouling out, props to him for stepping up.
God this game was the ultimate KAT experience. Incredible shooting and shotmaking coupled with the most dumb fouls.
KAT has been granted an extra life for his performance tonight by the feline gods
KAT hit MASSIVE shots down the stretch.
I know the whole world is enjoying dogging Gobert but he was pretty good those final 5 minutes. Won’t show up in the stat sheet but made shooters alter their shot like 3 straight possessions with 5 to go in the fourth.
This shit will go to game 7. Pls. This is entertaining
Kyrie sold hard
1500 KAT + Bring Ya Ass Ant = undefeated
Mavs were whining and flailing for cheap calls tonight, and they didn’t have to.
They could’ve decided to just shoot better instead of resorting to the gimmicky shit.
#1,500 SHOTS A DAY
Amazing game but those 3 point “fouls” at the end there were fucking terrible.
Rudy Gobert, and Karl-Anthony Towns have more conference finals wins than Donovan Mitchell, and Joel Embiid
This makes them higher than those 2 players in All Time rankings
Turns out KAT is the real deal and Kyrie is the fraud. Tune in next game for your daily Reddit overreaction!
Another 4th quarter thriller. So many great plays.
Timberwolves superbowl bound
I mean I’m sad overall due to the chances of making something happen here but this is a genuinely weird series. Mavs playing some of the most aesthetically pleasing ball you will ever see. Every Wolves basket feels like a minor miracle and they keep tripping over their own dick. Every game tighter than hell into the clutch.
KAT. Finally
“If they win this game it’s 4-0, they not gonna feel sorry for us bruh.”
– Anthony Edwards on why they won the game

Was hoping for a 4 point play tip shot and a tech to tie the game in that last 2 tenths
Kyrie’s streak… is over
The Wolves are the 1 in Kyrie’s 14-1 closeout streak.
But at least we get another episode of Inside the NBA sooo… silver linings?
7 games please
Why did they keep that game going for the past minute lmfao
At least one more game of basketball before the Finals. Thank you, Minnesota.
Let this be a lesson, nobody beats us four times in a row!
Wolves give me chest pains
Rudy is the POST GAME Guest
I’m still mad that kat fouled out in the end. Bullshit call.
1-156 starts here
Refs had to make it about themselves at the end huh
No jokes to make. That was just a good ass game.
#NotSwept
Timberwolves are so elite that they won the Super Bowl in the NBA. Vikings are shook.
Difficult win by the Wolves. Gobert and Edwards 5 fouls each, then Towns with 6 fouls.
Wolves win, Ant and Towns had good games. The “analysts” once again go back to ignoring everything that Rudy Gobert does.
Kyrie streak broken
Guys the wolves have done it. Kyrie no longer undefeated in series clinching games. Give them the chip
Hit me with the new narrative r/nba
Glad they put 0.2 back on the clock, that surely changed the trajectory of this game
Stan van Gundy thinking of 5 point plays is so me
awoo

Despite the refs best effort, Minnesota wins the game.
Luka foul baiting is awful to see
MIN winning the 5-8. Foster needs to pull and Angel Hernandez and retire. Fucking awful
Ball. Don’t. Lie. Trash ass refs in this series. So many soft calls while I’m watching Ant get clobbered
ANT is averaging 24/9/8 this series but the way redditors treat him, you think he was Jordan Poole this series lol.
refs were fucking atrocious tonight
The games were 3-1 and 4-0. But damn, all games got you ass clenching for 48min
These people screaming at Draymond.
KAT fouling out at the end there felt like foster trying to exert his own influence
Refs either need to become less influenced by gaslighting from players like Luka or he needs to start getting techs called on him for complaining to the refs nonstop. If that means he gets thrown out in Q1, that’s on him.
I still don’t understand how Luka didn’t get a tech for jumping up and down screaming at a ref at the end of game 3 — especially when a wolves player got a tech for (relatively) calmly complaining about a call and motioning to his bench to challenge earlier in the game.
There is 0 consistency and there is clear favoritism shown to players like Luka who complain and flop. It’s gotten so bad it’s becoming unenjoyable to watch. I’m not even a Minnesota fan. I just want to watch a competitive sport, not a sports-adjacent entertainment show like scripted wrestling.
