"We got nothing". RIP Stars/Oilers. I still care about Hockey even if Rich's show doesn't.
Just relax Mavs will win its the Timberwolves!!!
More basketball??? The game is entirely unwatchable anymore. Just an awful awful awful sport anymore.
Celtics will trounce the pups. If you want a good finals you should be rooting for Dallas.
That's why we lost.. there were cowboys in the arena..
The Timberwolves are watching the Mavericks take a flight to Minnesota Rich? Hmm. Well, that makes no sense at all unless someone in the Timberwolves waves a magic wand and transports Minnesota back to the Twin Cities while they watch the Mavs. Weird statement.
Finally Rich talks about the Twolves. Last series all he could do was give credit to the Nuggets. I believe in the comeback!! But am not getting my hopes up. Luka is looking unstoppable.
What's wild is it took KAT 4 games until he got aggressive and went to the rim. They won by 5 points and you look desperate to have this series go longer. Pray tell Rich, what are the chances now that KAT does this 3 more times in a row?
wow KAT did an interview? Did you notice he was nowhere to be found until he finally had a good game rich? no, that doesn't fit your game 4 narrative.
