  1. rpphdrboze

    obligatory we would have lost this game last year post

  2. unwinagainstable

    Ant should not have played that game. Coaches/trainers need to do a better job of making him sit when he’s well under 100%.

  3. dosnetlive

    It’s insane the wolves just casually go on long winstreaks now. They’ve won 5 games in a row and I’m just like “yup” wtaf

  4. unwinagainstable

    Shoutout to /u/South_Ad_7488 for great defense on Wemby

  5. EorgegayOydflay

    I hope I never have to hear that ESPN crew ever again holy shit

    They being paid to suck off wemby at this point

  6. jonn_jonzz

    Rudy makes me wanna buy one of the black and white striped shirts and learn how to make bagets.

  7. pollinium

    Troy Brown Jr really just sat on our bench for 15 games staying ready

  8. If all three Rudy/KAT/Ant play like themselves at the same time, I don’t see any team beating the Wolves. We beat teams with 1 or 2 guys hot but not 3.

  9. Paulie4star

    Rudy.

    Also, TBJ hit some really clutch threes when we really needed em so shout out to him.

  10. Papa_fo33

    We shot like we were playing against the minnesota timberwolves today, too bad the spurs shot like we were playing against the raptors

  11. Gobert has been the best player on the team this season. Great to get a W when we don’t play well and we had 5 guys score 14-18 points

  12. JustSeriousEnough

    This win was like a bad pizza, still decent.

  13. diddlyumpcious4

    Win streak back at five. Feels like we couldn’t do that a single time most seasons.

  14. yourloudneighbor

    Ugly win> good loss.

    Nice run when wemby went to the bench, his size bothered the shit out of us

  15. Jeremy-Juggler

    This team is so hard to stop because if somebody’s having a bad game there’s another guy like KAT or Naz who can still light it up.

  16. goingtothegreek

    I never thought I’d see the day where our guys are a second half team. Rudy is hands down our MVP this year, and we still have meat on the bone.

  17. fanofloons

    Screw ADT, I want a Rudy poster on my ceiling so I feel protected

  18. dys0n_giddey

    How do we ensure Rudy gets in the All-Star game?

    Seems like hes going to miss out just cause

  19. dabbing_pilot

    I hated the ESPN cast, especially the crotchety old guy. I know I’m biased.

  20. I love this team. I love our fans. Still surreal to see TC packed on a weeknight against a bottom-feeder.

  21. uber_snotling

    Got a straight.

    14 – KAT

    15 – Naz Reid

    16 – Gobert

    17 – Ant

    18 – Conley

  22. Wakandaforever456

    RUDY GOBERT is the best defensive player on the planet. We have to live with it.

  23. Just your casual reminder that a top 3 perimeter defender remains sidelined for us. Wolves so fucking back

  24. maple_wolves

    Honestly Rudy should be in the MVP conversation. +31…

  25. RidebyDubai

    Jazz fan here. Always felt that Rudy was the better of the tandem we had (Gobert & Mitchell). These are the kind of games that Rudy wins for your regularly. Offense struggling? Just let Gobert loose.

    So awesome to see him back at full strength and playing for an appreciative fan base. Take good care of him guys, he is a good un.

    Gobert always covered up for our shitty ass defense and hero-ball Mitchell. You guys have legit perimeter defenders and Ant. I hope you guys go all the way.

  26. If Rudy doesn’t get MVP consideration this year, it will be a crime. He’s by far our best player night it and night out. It’s honestly not even close. He’s literally keeping us close in games just by his defense alone.

  27. I’ll say it: Rudy Gobert is a poor man’s Walker Kessler.

    Hahahahahaha!
