Despite the Lakers best efforts the Lakers have won this game.
Also 24 Turnovers for the TWolves is f****** terrible
The last 5 minutes of regulation and OT was some of the worst basketball I have watched in a long time but a W is a W.
Lakers and Timberwolves competing for who’s better at throwing the game but despite their best efforts to throw, the Lakers come out with a win
Both of these teams played basketball tonight
Someone’s gotta count how many ALMOST turnovers lebron had
I’d like to extend a heart felt apology to my wife, my neighbors, my dog, and everyone in my apartment complex that heard me yelling this entire game
Unfortunately, you’ll have to endure it at least 4 more times. ☠️💀
This team man.
I’m convinced both teams tried to lose this game
In the last 11 minutes of game time, the wolves scored 7(!) points
That is worse than the scoring droughts in March madness. Holy shit.
I can’t seem to find Anthony Edwards
7 points and 2 field goals in the last 11 minutes of the 4th Q/OT for the wolves… lakers didn’t even execute much better but just a terrible collapse by the wolves.
Straight comedy from both teams tbh
Both of these teams really want to play the Nuggets, we must not be very good 😬
Sometimes I just wish I never watched basketball
I’m honestly just excited to see LeBron in the playoffs at least one more time. Despite how well he’s still playing, he ain’t got many years left folks.
I hate the NBA
Conley gonna have to go purify the entire team in the waters of Lake Minnetonka after that one
Didn’t realize Antman could shrink THAT much
Fuck this game, holy shit
Quality basketball’s 9/11
This game was so bad but I didn’t want it to end
KAT with 24/11/5 on 12 shots, +19 in a game his team lost by 6.
Mike Conley clutch as hell, 23 points on 11 shots.
ANT, completely shits the bed: 9 points 3/16 from the field, 0/8 on threes. WOOF!
Lakers and Timberwolves were competing who could choke harder lmao
Btw Dennis Schroder is clutch af
Rudy Gobert smiling watching Kyle Anderson fuck up over and over
Justice for Mike Conley. He deserves better.
Idek how you can be a Wolves fan. The team should have had that game wrapped up 3 times over but still managed to lose in a spectacularly terrible way. They can’t just be a normal kind of suck. They constantly have to be the kind of suck that drains the soul out of your body if you are a fan.
Schroeder left the game long enough to have something in the tank for the end. Everyone was totally gassed and he was making plays.
Wolves play-by-play for the last ~15 minutes readin like a horror story
Ant played like one of those posts that goes “if you got to play 40 minutes in a NBA game do you think you could make a single bucket?”
Could not have been a more Timberwolves way to lose this game
I just watched an entire season of the pistons and that was still the most disappointing basketball I’ve seen all year.
Offense was CONSTIPATED. I had to do a double take that this wasn’t a college ball game. The turnovers, bricks, horrible decision making. Just wow.
Good effort without 3 starters- Gobert, McDaniels, and Anthony Edwards
“AD had a brainfart and messed up [Dennis’] gamewinner up” – LeBron in the post game interview lmao
Conley can take the airplane. EVERYONE ELSE IS GOING ON THE BUS
Man, the play-in is just a different beast. The pressure is just bigger. No wonder Pat Bev celebrated like a crazy man last year.
Edwards seems like a great leader. He stood in solidarity with his suspended teammate and decided not to show up as well
Worst good basketball game I’ve ever seen lmao
This may have been an ugly win, but I always welcome the birth of a meme.

People are gonna doom and gloom the Lakers after this game, but the Wolves were nuclear quarters 1-3 while the Lakers outside of Lebron and AD couldn’t hit water out of a boat. Luckily Schroeder came alive in the 4th and overtime, but this is just standard 1 game variance. Lakers are still spooky, and I wouldn’t rest easy if I was Memphis.
