Ant has officially taken the leap we all wanted. Dude is fucking balling night in and night out.
Man did we miss TP too, dude was huge tonight!
Wolves back baby!!!
Lets Fucking Go!!!
ANT
Lol rudy seemed surprised ANT passed it to him on that lob attempt
Awesome win! Ant really showed a lot of growth in the clutch tonight.
Big fucking win there, this is more the team we all expected all year. Emergency team meeting OP
No DLo in the clutch. Everyone on that court can play D and knows their role. That’s why they succeeded
Edwards is the one true Ant
2 game win streak, wolves back?
Superstar Ant is arriving
rudy was so so good today , trade is 100 percent worth it now 💯💯
TP was clutch tonight! Been missing his energy
Rudy and ant bumping chests after the game. Shit. Let’s see where this goes.
Wolves Back.
Loved the Ant Energy last 5
Funny that the coaching looks more adequate when a certain player isn’t getting run.
That was fun. Ant really starting to step up.
Ant is the fucking answer. Glad to see him seize the keys to the game /franchise. Can’t wait to see KAT back either, gonna be really hard to stop our offense
I didn’t know 2023 was a leap year too
Ant took over the end of the game. It was great
Great to have Prince back. Gobert controlling the defense and Ant dominating the offense in the 4th is exactly what we were dreaming of this summer.
Prince taking the charge late in the game was my favorite play.
He could see the play coming and got there early and got the call.
Y’all forgot about the 2023 wolves
I don’t care what any body says, I like the Rudy trade.
He was everything I thought he would be tonight.
What? Prince is evolving!
.
.
.
Congratulations! Your Prince evolved into King!
Was that Anfernee that went up to Ant after the game and walked away sad? Wonder what Ant said lol
I’m am proud of Ant for being THAT guy.
We got a team, just need the last 2 guys in, and we are getting that banner baby
You just lost to
Pride Night Ant
Ant > Anf
Prince was a hero. Garza deserves a shout-out for the 1st.
Everyone just played so well today.
Gobert with the amazing screens and some good defense in the 4th.
TP doing everything right.
Garza the offensive monster.
Ant taking over in the 4th.
Win or lose Ant is insanely fun to watch
Ant is him. Dude taking the leap in front of our very eyes. TP was huge too. Encouraging signs these last couple games. Let’s keep that shit going.
Not only is he a beast but a Twolves jersey with the name prince on it.. in mpls just take my money
Prince was amazing for his first game back. Made a huge difference.
ANT is HIM it’s simple
Finch with an awesome game. Hopefully DLo is able to accept his new role. Going with a defensive lineup down the stretch and just letting ant cook is a recipe for success.
Great win! Love having Anderson and rivers not allowing Dame to shoot threes. If we went with DLo he would’ve been getting wide open looks
ANT IS AN ALL STAR
Having both TP and Kyle Anderson on the floor raises our teams BBIQ so much. Hopefully we can stay healthy and make a run.
Also no Dlo to close out? I think it was the right call since Rivers can defend Lillard better but still strange to see, wonder if there’s anything behind it
TP is a pro’s pro
so happy rn. Kyle anderson is our most important role player. The play where ant thought he got fouled was about to complain and kyle was like nah dont worry about. Inbound comes, ant side steps close out for an easy uncontested jumper, ant smiling on the way back on defense. then the Rudy play, like 4 switches, blazers move the ball around the horn, find an open shooter from 3 and it was actually rudy of all people to finally bust his ass and contest the shot. huge defensive stop. Then ant took over, dude almost jumped out of his shoes crossing the halfway line, he was absolutely buzzing. we looked confident and scary, something I haven’t really felt about any of our wins this year.
I hope yall can really start seeing the offensive value Rudy can have just from the screens. I dont even care if hes scoring but we got so many damn open looks from them and Ant started using them a ton. Very good for the future imo
Luka Garza is the best Luka in the NBA! Prove me wrong.
Best win percentage in the NBA this year. LETS GOOO!!!
