🐺 Minnesota Timberwolves vs Cleveland Cavaliers | POSTGAME | 3/8/24

[Applause] and and fre himself fires on the right [Applause] three Got up in to Violence my Goodness welcome to wolves after dark everyone sorry for that if you saw the notification come through for another stream I tried multi streaming and it didn’t work welcome everybody we are unbanned and I need all of your support right now if if you are here right now live or

Watching the VOD later I need you to like the stream because I’m worried that since we got banned yesterday for showing highlights just highlights that they’re going to hurt my algorithm so please help me and like the stream but welcome in everybody olls lose to the Cavaliers 113 to

104 in a disappointing game but I think my general sense is that I’m okay I mean I’m I’m not happy because there’s many things that talk about tonight but uh you know both of these teams are injured right now both of these teams have played a lot of games recently we just

Played a very emotional game last night um both on the road for us so I I kind of get it but there are definitely concerning things so let’s catch up on chat here Cavs are a big team healthy imagine planting NS in of that makes oh my gosh

Yeah that would be rough um we’re here with pitchforks and torches looking for Scott Foster that is true Scott Foster tonight what did he say at a point did you guys hear the mic where he said what did he say he said be careful when you talk to the

Refs I’ll be patient don’t cost your team don’t cost our team bro you cost our team like you’re the one doing all this oh my gosh don’t worry YouTube you couldn’t pay us to watch tonight’s game again yeah you don’t have to worry about any highlights tonight we will not the

You have better chance of me showing last night’s games than tonight but welcome everybody how’s everybody doing you can hate the loss but like the stream that is also true Charlie that is the best that might be the quote of the night so far 5 seconds

In an with one of the worst career games I’ve ever seen his play or worst games I’ve seen him play in his career cheating ass refs guys like Kyle on score North brag about how Rudy is an amazing leader which I think in some aspects he leads well but that last foul

Was insane yeah Noah that last foul was really bad um cuz it was a foul and the technical I mean here’s the thing I don’t like calling technicals in that situation but he kind of did two things there CU he did the he did the kind of

You know whatever this is I don’t know what that is I’m not trying to be get banned not trying to get banned but he does that um the pointing of fingers in a certain formation of like a something um and then he also did the money thing

Which the money thing is kind of crazy I sort of love it but he’s going to get fined um ant probably will get fined as well for some of the things that he said tonight I’m surprised he didn’t get in trouble for his uh celebration he did last night

But yeah let’s see jaredo welcome back cheating ass refs true true uh um Rudy deserves wancho for that Tech but that referee who called the tech should also be ashamed of herself can’t make emotional Tech calls like that I was honestly Johnny I was super confused by that play because it seemed

Like her and like Scott Foster were like discussing whether or not they were going to call the technical after the fact and they were like oh should we be calling a foul because it’s a sixth or not and like what like just call whatever you’re going to call how was

This a how was this a decision this this is after the play um senel Lee lie that was some horrible refereeing I agree if you dislike the refereeing tonight like The Stream um but no Timberwolves fall to 44 and 20 okay so let’s take that first I’m

In a calming mood tonight I will admit it might be kind of uh angering to some of you but I really am not in that bad of a mood after this L I’m very mad very mad at the uh the refereeing in general in this game again this kind of goes

Both ways um but I just you know so many crucial ones at the end against us um It’s Tricky it’s it’s hard to deny some of the people talking about money being involved like Rudy um but yeah let’s have a no ban Friday that is the goal that is

Certainly the goal we want to be here for Sunday Actually I don’t even know if I can be here Sunday um Kim let us overreact Mason you’re welcome to overreact but I might I’m just warning you that I might try to calm you down instead of go with you um stupid T by

Rudy Costa wolves the game yes it did it did I mean think of that if we don’t have that T it’s Wolves win 97 to 96 or something like that depending on like foul at the end of game situation I really thought we were going

To win too when Nas had that block I was like oh we have a free play and then Edwards throws up like the stupidest Fade Away doesn’t even dra draw Rim like like what like that play I have the most of a problem with you can have an off

Night but like game on the line you have a free play essentially to just heave something up and you don’t even draw Rim like that’s crazy I think we should T sign TJ to the rest of the wait where did I go sign TJ for the rest of the year I think we

Should too it depends I mean like cat being out so long makes it that we pretty much have to right we just have to but the ghost of Tim Don out here I that is true with cat we win by eight plus probably honestly yeah this is a game where we could have

Used cat we could have used some scoring and it’s just becoming evident you know last game was fun because ant went nuclear but we are not going to be able to go nuclear every single game for ant um he can play well but I mean we need somebody else that can

Shoot now Nas stepped up tonight I guess that’s the other Counterpoint is that you could say that Nas Ste stepped up and then we wouldn’t have had the same cat production if Nas did that or vice versa so I do think though that if we

Have cat we win this game the NZ block was crazy yes it was Mitchell uh there’s already three Reddit posts on JJ you are sick you’re sick that’s okay though NB rnba though that’s a little bit more intense I guess um they’re even missing yeah they were missing Evan and uh

Donovan stop the if we have a player thing well I mean but yeah if we had cat we do win this game tonight but I see what you’re saying like you’re talking like playoffs or like perfect sandbox situation yeah we don’t I mean that was

A tricky game but seven of 27 thank you swiming I actually said that 7 to 27 are Kobe numbers here’s the problem then the difference here is that Kobe got fou calls and he got all the fou calls that ant is not getting so add 15 no 10 to 15

Free throws a night um guess what a had five free throws tonight add at least five if not 10 to that we got a game if not a win but bro you can’t say this is a rigged game you can’t say this is a rigged

Game or isn’t a rig game I don’t know I can’t tell back toback Adam Silver needs to eliminate these back-to-back games yeah also this is a besides the point in a way like look at the Timber wol schedule we’ve had like in the last month to like two months here or I’m I’m

Saying like the last two months of the Season like we’ve just got so many back toback in the month of March how many do we have one two three we have three back to backs but they were all basic or two of them are

In a row here um and oh yeah so if we go back we had out of the All-Star break back to back back to back regular game backto back back to back so four backto backs in the span of basically two weeks um that that’s Bonkers that’s crazy now

Of course some of those were at home and that’s great but um Road Road ones are just atrocious but um let’s see yeah ant has the MJ mentality that and that Kobe low IQ inefficient energy and LeBron takeover Gene it’s a bit of everything yeah yeah renzy that’s what I thought you were

Saying I was like what that doesn’t make any sense um yeah four back toback in nine games I mean that’s insane but and we you know a lot of those were at home and we should have won more of the games at home honestly however I do want to

Give you guys some amount of um some hope here I was doing some math okay now unfortunately the who the Pelicans won tonight right they must have they had to have yeah wow it was so much closer though the Pelicans did win um the Pelicans are kind of the main thing cuz

Really at the end of the day what do we care about home court advantage at least in the first round of the playoffs at least in the first round of the playoffs um so that means a top four seed we want top four um for that to happen we have 18 games

Left we would if we went let’s say over the last 18 games here we go 8 and 10 okay 8 and 10 would put us at 52 wins 52 wins um the Pelicans are at 38 wins right now so for their last like 209 games they

Would have to go like 15 and four they have to go crazy to get even close to that and we’d have to go as bad as 8 and 10 which we have not really done at any point in the season so that’s a positive I do think I

Yeah call me Cas in the Thunder one I I think something that we do need to prepare ourselves for due to cat being out is that I mean the one seed is basically not realistic right now CU we are not going to be um doing anything um sorry about that um but um

Yeah it’s uh Sor I’m throwing off now what was I talking about course the Thunder one for the millionth time after being down at halftime Rudy says he’ll miss another Point Blank layup if you don’t hit subscribe yes jarn Barn I like that name like And subscribe of

Course oh man the house is burning down someone pulled a fire alarm it did sound like that for a second um wolves don’t need that one seed as much as Denver needs it to home court yeah but and honestly like we have played pretty good on the road um like

We fought tonight and sometimes at home we get kind of uh lackluster so also Mason multiple airballs multiple airballs by Rudy tonight not a great Rudy game I don’t know his stats off the top of my head but it did not seem like a good Rudy night because we saw like

Two maybe three airball layups and dunks like that’s crazy can we talk about how Mike Conley is not showing up for this team also we’ve got a lot of people not showing up right now luckily the only reason we really had a chance tonight is because

Nas showed up and we needed one of Nas na or Mike to show up all three of them though have been missing for a while now really since the end of the All-Star Break um Nas showed up tonight so we have no complaints with him there but

Mike and N just not cutting it and that hurts because that’s a lot of our point guard position you know nod is bringing up the ball a lot um so that’s that’s a bummer also TJ Warren only played 11 minutes I feel like we could have used more of that

Shout out to Mike and Nori for uh for stepping in for Finch whatever is going on with him hopefully he’s okay but um we shall see so uh cat can’t even turn over the ball nightbot night butt was going nuts that is true we need to change night butt

Night butt’s going out of control we got to add Finch not Finch won’t play TJ Warren more than 11 minutes we are also out Morris um should have given war and more down see Eric I was kind of wondering the same thing but what I said in the Discord shout out the

Discord was it’s like can we trust him this early on in the team in a kind of tight game like is that okay I mean you could argue we’re trusting Kyle in these situations but Kyle does know the team a little bit better but do we want to be

Having Kyle out there this late either I don’t know I don’t love that but he did lose Noah he lost his floater game he lost his threes he lost I mean he lost like everything I hate it it’s sad and it’s really scary because we just signed him

Like we need you to do something for us but I don’t think Warren uh but won’t lie he has played well yeah he has played he has played pretty good I mean he’s making buckets he is probably close to surpassing shake Milton’s like scoring title or scoring scoring title

Scoring total on the season yeah he has played well only way I to find out is play him yeah and I guess you know also that’s a Mike andori thing this was a little bit of a chocked game I mean I know I know that there’s valid

Concerns we’re going to get to ant here soon um we’ll get to Kyle we’ll get to all Rudy all the bad stuff that happened tonight um but realistically stepping back you know we had a very emotional game last night um ant was injured several times in last night’s game and a

Little bit in tonight’s game hitting knees with Nang I think um you know we’re out towns we’re out Monte um so so were the Cavs though they were out players back to back you know just lots of things it’s that’s why I’m not as mad but there are valid concerns and I think

We should probably get to those so let’s see I am going to add a new tier to the tier list it’s crazy I know you get can’t see it yet but oops did I do this right there we go there we go we love it we love it it’s kind of messed up

Color-wise now but we’re going to keep it this way it’s really weird looking right now like so bad looking right now okay but we’re going to keep it like that okay I don’t take back toback seriously it’s okay to get the L ref was on refs were on something I mean I kind

Of agree with you that was sort of nuts I’m curious to see the two-minute report though cuz there’s a part of me now that I’m a little beyond the game there’s a part of me that’s wondering if they were files and we were just complaining a lot

But I I I don’t know there was too many weird situations the mic call at the end where it was like not a gather but it was a gather it was close I’m not saying it wasn’t close but that’s weird and just lots of weird 50-50 nonsense so

Okay I’m clearing out the tier list just to get everybody off off of it so that we can get a fresh start here but we’re going to jump into the tier list and we’ve got some new explanations because uh the big boy in the Discord appreciate

You let’s see can we rank Scott Foster today we should rank him I don’t have a picture of him though in here so we can pretend we used to have a ref in here who will be our ref should we have it be oh there’s nobody I dislike I guess

Our ref tonight could probably be uh Marcus Morris Cuz it’s the only like additional one that we have um okay let’s go to the tier list now making sure this works too boom okay I gotta Bend this though guys I can’t tell you how excited I was to not be banned

Anymore I was not loving that after the game last night I will be honest I was very concerned okay oh I I can’t see the players at the bottom there we go okay here we are tiar list time for those of you that are new even if you’re not new

First off like the stream And subscribe we do this after every game Ashwin my co-host will eventually be back um but he will not be back for a little while he is out for like three weeks um although he’s already like a week into that so I don’t know I don’t know

Exactly when he’s getting back but he will be back I know you guys love Ashwin um so he’ll be back but A1 unforgettably good game like you’re never going to forget it think ants last game uh um that that kind of a deal Shake Milton or actually wancho is a terrible game you

Took away from the team actively like it was bad game bottoms is atrocious game like could not have been worse in any way and Shake Milton SL I kind of want to make this Glen Taylor again what do you guys think about Glen Taylor again instead of uh instead of shake Milton

Because Shake was just like such an insignificant part of our team I don’t know it just seems like it’s not like worth it to do that but or not worth it to keep him there maybe I’m crazy but I don’t know sorry I got to pop out

The chat can’t see you guys there we go okay Glen Taylor instead yeah drop Shake I agree thank you guys thank you yeah Glen Taylor’s better Awan Glen Taylor and Glen Taylor I didn’t mention is like the absolute worst of the worst not even just like on a game basis on

Like a multi-game basis like you have been bad for a long time and not just kind of bad like like so bad thank Glenn Taylor you know how could it get worse than Glenn Taylor um okay let’s do it um what am I doing let’s start with who

Do we want to start with tonight I don’t really know honestly um maybe we’ll start with the obvious one two words Nas Reed let’s start with nas everybody get your grades in for Nas Reed great game tonight from nas he he scored more minutes than he played 34 points in 32

Minutes had only five rebounds had two blocks um he was 10 of 18 shooting um took nine shots less than Edwards and made two more that’s one way of looking at it he was seven of 11 from three he made seven um he made seven threes and that’s how

Many shots Edwards made and that’s how many threes Edwards took and didn’t make I’m sorry I should not be doing this I said I wasn’t going to hate on Edwards tonight um had more free throws than Edwards oh my gosh um did have four personal fouls three of which seemed to

Come like all at the same time um but a pretty good game I mean this is a fantastic game from NS um all right Mark says NS there should be a NS read here really A1 for n a Nas A1 or higher Joel says Nas cash

A1 um nearly won this nearly won it on his own that’s true Crone a Nas cash and that’s what I forgot to mention cash is brand new from the big boy cash is like incredible game but we might not remember it you know like think of like

A smaller player going off like crazy um I’m not saying they can’t get an A1 but like you know A1 then we have we have tier flation going on okay everybody this is the of wolves after dark we have inflation we have we need to have more

Room in between these tiers so that’s what’s happening but we’re see I’m seeing a mixture of cash and A1 he carried A1 Cash for now if we won A1 see Eric I’m kind of with you I think a nice block the Garland block was A1 the

Garland block was A1 and if he would have gotten a chance to win at the other end that would have been perfect but cash says Charlie barley hate on Edwards my head pops up from a hole call me a casual you’re the you like you’re the towns fan

Right you’re and you don’t like Edwards and then JJ is H unhappy most of the time um yeah towns and Jaden oh yeah it’s Jaden Jaden yeah they right that’s right um I think it’s cash I think we’re going to go with cash I like this was a fantastic game there’s almost nothing

Better you can do I think it’s just the winning factor for me it was so exciting though I mean he hit so many threes it’s crazy but he actually you think about it he 21 of his points came from three which is exciting and great and I want

That but um I mean that’s a lot of his points and then seven more at the free throw line so I don’t know I mean why am I complaining about threes what’s wrong with me like this is fantastic but I think it’s cash I think it’s cash if you guys have strong feelings

About A1 I could do that like if you’re going to tell your kids about this someday let me know um like your unborn children like if you’re going to let them know in 5 to 10 years let me know but um I probably will not be doing that

Though I think it’s cash tonight um let’s jump to oh not towns towns didn’t play Let’s jump to another fun one get your grades in for Rudy goar 36 minutes s points 17 rebounds um two assists two blocks he was at plus seven tonight by the way uh

Side note TJ Warren was the highest at plus 15 um Rudy was three of seven and four of those misses were air balls I think um all four of his misses um only got to the line twice he was getting kind of eaten up by um what’s his face

Allen um fouled out technical fou that loses as the game You could argue what do we say um Scott Foster took his A1 away too that’s crazy Mitchell yeah maybe last night what was A1 is Cash yeah but I think we need A1 to be reserved for crazy like seriously

We’re not nobody’s telling nobody’s telling their children someday about this Noz re performance but um let’s see bottom says Mark that’s another new Dow Rudy gave Cleveland the tie Rudy I got wancho mat or dowlo for Rudy W we’re kind of all over the place he did get 17 boards

Though ah here’s where I am I’m stuck right now I’m stuck between DLo and wancho because this was there were bad moments tonight I think it’s I don’t know if I want to go as low as wancho if I had an 11 foot wingspan I could grab 17 rebounds on accident yeah that

Might be true that might be true yeah he’s not normally immature but I I do think that this is this has been more of a trend I mean I can’t deny that he’s been doing the I won’t do the thing because I don’t want to get banned but he’s been doing the finger

Motion in the shape of something that jaar would use frequently um I don’t love that and not only just doing that he’s like pointing directly at the refs that seems kind of crazy I don’t like it um the money thing is hilarious that alone the money honestly that that maybe bumps my grade

Up a little bit because that’s hilarious um let’s see Rudy costum in the game period jnn Barn says I love your name JN Barn um DLo because he was okay for the most part Joel says Rudy wancho and you know it cam Rudy keeps his mouth shut

And they win I know this is a weird one because again we base it off of just tonight it’s not just in general um and I think I might be having that influence that’s why I think I might be closer to D and what do I say about the times that

I’m in between DLo and wancho if we win we go up if we lose we go down I think ah it’s it’s it’s mainly just because of the play at the end this technical foul is crazy we could have won this game if he doesn’t do

That and he did have some kind of stupid foul he had a lot of fouls too some of them were not fouls but I think it’s man this is tough cuz I you’re whoever said that it wasn’t really that crazy bad of a game is right

I mean he did have the airballs which is like nuts he had like lots of individually terrible moments but like overall it wasn’t like a wancho but those individual moments legitimately cost us the game so I think I think it’s wancho I think it’s wancho call me a casual Rudy is was

Frustrated because the team wasn’t getting him the ball when he had chances for easy buckets I do think that we get it to him at the wrong times and this could be a finch thing I know Finch wasn’t there tonight but this is just in general we tried to get it we were

Talking about this a little bit in the Discord if Rudy doesn’t get the ball directly under the rim I don’t mean like okay like how do I do this on the camera like here’s the rim or what how do I do this like sometimes Rudy’s over here and

He has to like post up and like get to the if he’s right here then you get it to him because then all he has to do is turn and dunk that’s all that has to happen hasht analytics by the way holy um but seriously like if he is right

Under the bucket then he can do that like how we were talking about that Shack move the other day or weeks ago I guess now um that was fun but that was he was right under the basket we don’t want him doing the postup dribbling where he’s dribbling off his foot

Dribbling off his legs people are easily stealing the ball because of course it’s it’s Rudy we’re not wanting him to dribble like he should be dribbling you know how they talked about like years ago when golden state was like actually pretty good and Clay was like oh he only

Takes like 11 dribbles in one game or whatever I want that to be Rudy except I don’t want him po like I don’t want him coming off of flare screens for threes I want him in the post under the basket and then we can get the ball to him and

Then he can either get fouled or he can dunk it but in general I don’t really want that to be like the core of our offense I want that to happen a few times a game not a ton and it seems like Finch is trying to make it happen a ton

Again I know Finch didn’t wasn’t there tonight but is weird Crone yeah drop steps are fine exactly uh airball layups gets wancho that’s enough for me we’ll do that I don’t want to talk about Rudy anymore let’s talk about let’s do kind of an easier one well maybe not easier but a

Lighter one let’s do Jaden Jaden get your grades in for Jaden he played 39 minutes tonight 13 points five rebounds um he was a ne5 tonight but I mean kind of everybody that was in overtime was not so great so that’s kind of a broken stat

He was five of 11 tonight um I did have five personal fouls his are I don’t know I didn’t like his fouls there was that one foul was that in overtime where um or was that the fourth quarter I can’t remember where Garland was like flailing

And he only had one second left behind the three-point line and they gave him the call like there was a foul there but like the only it’s just such a bad circumstance for Jaden because he should not be I mean he should be pressed up but his hands shouldn’t be there because

He’s got to know that there’s one second left that was bad um but yeah H wo that man since we lost I’m with you me Jaden game um is it bad that I still want more from Jaden so you guys know I’ve been kind of back and forth on

Jaden I’ve both loved Jaden this year and hated Jaden this year um luckily the Love Has Come a little bit more recently I do think especially especially with towns out we have to be giving um we have to be giving Jaden more opportunities to cut he had multiple opportunities tonight and they

Were great he scored 13 points it’s not like he wasn’t involved but it does feel like we need more from him but I also just don’t know if he’s fully capable but like somebody said earlier how are we going to know until we try it and I think honestly

Especially now that towns us out we just have to be trying some things and maybe that doesn’t necessarily mean like throwing Warren into like clutch game situ but it might mean getting Jaden the ball in clutch time situations I don’t know that that could be what it means so I

Think people are saying me some people are saying D I think it’s me I think it’s me I don’t think it’s that bad I I really don’t have any super strong feelings about this game other than I guess I wanted a little bit more um but it also

Wasn’t like a terrible game from Jaden I feel like I’m forgetting one major thing and I cannot remember what it is driving me nuts but I think he was overall it was fine like he hit a three I don’t know there are some decent plays so his defense actually Mason so that

Was one thing that they were talking about on Bal tonight if you were lucky enough to get Bal that’s nice but if you had to listen to the National well I don’t listen to the Brett National one I had the national game on just so that I

Could see like a like an instant replay of what was happening but it’s just impossible to listen to the National TV people um when they’re talking about the timber wolves because it’s just so obvious every single time that they haven’t watched them before um and they’re like

Oh Rudy big he dunks and like ant is like he he also dunks and threes and defense like what like it’s just like the stupidest commentary I heard none of it tonight from ESPN um as I was listening to Jim Pete and uh Grady but

Um yeah I think it’s a me we’ll just say me oh but that’s what I was going to say Jim Pete said that it was a smaller Defender and a faster Defender and that Jaden’s not really into that he he’s not as good against that kind of a player um

Which is true he needs to be going up against maybe this just said in the Discord I’m mixing everything up but it needs to be going up against like a KD type of player or somebody that’s maybe not as speedy and fast somebody that’s a little bit more like an actual Wing

Player um so yeah Jaden’s offense is the key to winning without cat yep them and the the three combo of nasna and Mike those three they just have to combine for some amount of points now Nas did all the work for them tonight but um he do need points from them okay well

That’s enough talking about Jaden especially for somebody that got meh but um let’s do na Also let’s do na really quick there wasn’t much there um actually we probably don’t even need to do n he played 24 minutes but there was just nothing there honestly maybe I will

I’m just going to do a quick wano here I think he’s been really bad I’m like super high on na I must say but he’s he’s just been not good lately he can’t make buckets um it’s just not good it’s just not good didn’t even notice not yeah he was out

There for over half the game basically he was out there for half of Regulation anyways um missing on threes he had some weird like trying like he was like fade away like one shot push shot thing like I don’t know just not good um his drives have been good lately you’re right

Gerald that is that is true um but in general I have just hated hated his game lately um because we need those threes we need that perimeter scoring especially if we don’t have towns even though towns only like to take like three or four a game um but yeah

So wano na makes me sad I know but he did nothing it makes me sad I don’t want to put him in wancho but I think it is don’t do my favorite player like that his drives have been a lot better but his shot we just need more shots he scored by the

Way he play 24 minutes Four Points two assists two rebounds um two of eight coming into the game honestly I had a really good feeling about N I thought this was going to be like his game so maybe that’s why I’m a little bit further down on him but I just think it

Needs to be better so Charlie we do so many players playing below average right now um speaking of below average Kyle Anderson that was too mean that was too much I’m sorry we got to get ashn back I’m going off the rails here um Kyle Anderson tonight uh 35 minutes 10

Points five assists three rebounds uh five of nine shooting somehow it goes in when he shoots I don’t understand it um and that’s about it he only had one turnover and one personal foul but he’s just I don’t know I don’t love having Kyle out there I don’t love running

Offensive sets for Kyle I didn’t love and I mean it’s hard to blame Micah too much but this felt kind of obvious in the fourth quarter it was like we were under 3 minutes and we still had not put in Nas and it was like can we please put

In Nas Reed like he has 34 points at that time I think he only had like what 20 something or something I don’t know but that was the more important thing to me it was less that Kyle was sucking and more that Nas was playing so much better

I don’t know it was it’s just it’s bad give us minutes to TJ yeah the TJ thing is tricky though because if it is if it is due to um you know being new which I think it is then it’s like it’s hard to play him at night

But I think I’m kind of a mad I think Gerald might be a little bit lower well TJ may have been an amazing distressed asset I if TJ turns out to be something great we really did find like gold man like seriously that’d be so crazy

But let’s go Kyle meh I don’t want to talk about Kyle anymore me for Kyle meh for slow-mo yep I agree let’s do Anthony Edwards get your grades in for Anthony Edwards um where is it here there he is 42 minutes 19 points five rebounds three assists I will say

He had one really nice assist late game to goar I love that uh one steel one block um Team low -20 25% field goal percentage it was 7 of 27 zero of seven from three five5 from the line he had five turnovers three personal fouls not a good

Game not a good game uh Anthony Edwards DLo says Mason call me a casual says D that man Charlie barley says slowo um absolutely chucking it out there he was chucking it Charlie barley says bottoms for Anthony Edwards whoa meth tier look tired Godfrey says wancho for ant says

Jared Gerald says probably a wancho n could be dowlo because of the late shot he missed I really did hate that last shot he had nothing tonight and probably shouldn’t have been playing I mean that’s the thing he is injured a lot but I get this is this really was just such

A bad timing for this game because we had like we played such an emotional game I know I keep saying that but we played such an emotional game yesterday and then immediately we have to go tonight on a road to road back to back or road road back to back on ESPN and

The good game that you have is on nothing against another good team but still nothing and then tonight the bad game you have is broadcast everyone on ESPN for the first game of the night too so the entire country got to see it um I

Will say as I was saying in the Discord I don’t think I mean I don’t know how many people Avid basketball fans might have cared about this one but like the general NBA fan probably did not turn this on I’m being honest um me could be

Deal oh I read that already he had nothing I love ant when he doesn’t sit out games but he needs to sit out sometimes Mega empty tank and sore sore um from those hits last night yeah I don’t know what to do I really

Don’t know what to do I guess I’m in the same boat as um as Rudy tonight I think I’m in the same boat as Rudy where it wasn’t like I mean he he had more of a really bad game because he was missing so many shots

Um and you guys know I am an ant Homer okay so like I am definitely I am definitely um biased in this but it is between DLo and wancho I think it’s wancho he just didn’t have any he didn’t have anything tonight he started great actually he had nine points in the first

Quarter I think um had a couple dunks he was flexing it looked good for ESPN and all that and I felt I felt okay I was like if this is how the game is going to go I like this you know ends up with like the 26 points or something like

That even if it’s not a win even if it’s like kind of a blah game 19 points on national TV I get that it’s after an emotional game I get that it’s after like crazy game too we grade on a nightly basis not on a two-day

Window I think it’s wancho to show my non-bias okay whoa Mason said Dow that man it’s hard because this is what ant did and we what we needed I think ant played because we’re in only in Cleveland once a year that is a good point Jared I forget about that that is

True um if Rudy keeps his mouth shut the Wolves win this game yep I like it cool um I guess we’ll do Mike Conley real quick uh Mike Conley um nine points five assists three rebounds he was four of 11 shooting just does not look on right now

I’m just going to exe executive decision oh my gosh is it bottoms is it bottoms I don’t know if it’s bottoms it might not be bottoms cuz he did hit a couple shots big he had his toe on the line for a second night in a

Row and he had the end one actually yeah it’s it’s I’ll keep it at wancho honestly it’s maybe even closer to DLo because he did have the and one that was taken away and then immediately after that he gets another and one that alone is like a pretty plus

Play it’s not bottoms Mike is a dow this is crazy wo fation yeah that’s true yeah the plays that I was talking about I think make it a d but he has just been so bad lately he’s just I don’t trust his three at all I don’t

Trust his floater anymore he never lobs to Rudy anymore although Rudy doesn’t even seem ready for the lobs anymore um I don’t know I know the teams are taking it away and keeping away but it’s just not good he’s been bad since he signed that contract I know I don’t want

To hear that call me a casual but you’re right I think might and ant both need games off maybe even Rudy I think we should take games off and I think we should take games off around now so that because I don’t want to take games off close to the playoffs because

Then we’re coming back and we’re not in the flow of things um I think if we’re going to take a game off it needs to be well I don’t know because you do have a couple games against the Jazz coming up but yeah well think that’s all I’m going

To do for grading tonight I don’t really want to do too much else um grading and such CU there’s just random small players left but we lost cat he isn’t uh being aggressive anymore and needs and is getting cooked on defense talking about ant yeah I don’t know

Or Mike maybe I don’t know it’s just bad just bad um well um a couple things Conley you’re talking about okay um couple things that I did want to say so I mentioned this at the very beginning of the stream um one to like the stream but two um the most

Important thing right now is obviously um making having homec court advantage and being in the top for I just booked flights to be home in Minneapolis I’m from Seattle by the way um in Minneapolis um so that I can be there for game one of the playoffs assuming we

Are homec court advantage if we are not homec court advantage I am flying home to Minneapolis to watch them play on the road and then leave the minute they come back so uh we’ll see but yeah disc wolf everyone signed the fire Scott Foster petition for crimes against humanity

Specifically Naas Reed right yeah that was you know that’s I feel like that’s the first time I’ve really had that bad of an experience with Scott Foster I mean I know that he’s been bad generally to people but like I don’t know yeah we should definitely do a

Meetup first game of the playoffs I’d like to do some giveaways too um for those of you that have stuck around long enough I’d like to do some giveaways in it um once playoff tickets come out would love to do that um that’d be really fun um but yeah I don’t know Um we’ll see what we can do I tried to multistream tonight and it didn’t work I tried and then it like said that there was a stream happening and then there wasn’t and it like created a new one that was really annoying I don’t really know what to do there

But we’ll see but just f FYI again for those of you loyalists here I appreciate you all um after a loss an hour in um we did get banned yesterday so you cannot watch the stream yesterday um but we got unbanned obviously we’re streaming right now so I would

Suggest pulling up the twitch we have a twitch again I’ve made it wolves after dark instead of just my name now so you should be able to go to Twitch search wolves after dark all one word and we’ll be there um because that’s going to be a

Good backup I want to make sure that we have a backup in case that happens I’d love to do multi streaming again but disco we got banned because I showed the highlights of the Anthony Edwards block and it like banned me live and then it unbanned me and we were all hanging out

Here for a little bit longer and I tested it and I showed it again on Twitter and I was trying to watch whatever um and yeah it was and then they really banned me and gave me a strike on my channel which I appealed and then got it removed

Obviously say I’m here now um but that was going to make it so that I was 7 days without streaming uploading or posting anything on YouTube um which is sort of crazy for a first strike I think especially for us where we stream after every game like that’s nuts um yeah

Disco off that’s why I went down crazy we were talking about it a lot in the Discord but um but yeah insane insane yeah I know I don’t really want to go on Twitch because we were on Twitch before and we moved to YouTube because we liked it and the algorithm

Has been nice um on YouTube we’ve had so many people finding us after we’ve done the live stream which like I love doing the live stream but it is nice um you know it is it is nice for people to like listen to it later you know I I know I

Do that with like a lot of fantasy football podcasts that I listen to um or watch it later or whatever so I get that but yeah yeah you got to figure out Discord disco wolf you got to get in there we have so we have so many conversations

During the game in there it’s really fun um Gerald signatures oh you Sky the arrest the arrest Scott Foster one oh is there wait there’s one out there oh my gosh I’m scared to like react do the react screen anymore because I’m worried something going to be on my screen that gets me

Banned like an Anthony Edwards highlight although tonight they’re probably okay with me showing the low lights that’s what the corporate Elites want you to believe it YouTube wow look at that Clapper welcome although I think you followed me yesterday and this is just showing up now that’s kind of funny but well

Appreciate the follow on Twitch uh we are not live on Twitch right now that’s why we have zero followers or zero there but also I you know I don’t know if I will do this anytime in the near future but I have thought because I did want to

Use my twitch for actually like streaming some games because I play Call of Duty and like play some Sim games that’s not really good for streaming but I’ve done some other gaming too and I’ve thought about doing that because sometimes after the Wolves games like after we’ve talked wolves for an hour or

So like I don’t really want to talk wolves anymore but I’m not necessarily like tired of streaming so I’ve thought about doing that if you guys are interested in watching something like that let me know because we could maybe turn the Wolves after dark twitch into

Something like that I don’t know but um we’ll see it could also be its own thing too it does not have to be part of wolf after dark but if you guys would hang out for something like that let me know I think it might need to be a different

Thing cuz there are people that watch the VOD and I don’t think people would watch the VOD if there’s like two plus hours of like gaming at the end I don’t know some things to think about but yeah Rudy Godfrey uh oh Rudy Godfrey if you could

Only have cat or Rudy on the team next year Rudy Rudy sorry I know people aren’t going to like that but it’s Rudy too big of a defensive presence this year for us and uh we can replace cat’s um three-point ability unfortunately and I know that’s

Not all that he has in his game he’s played great defense this year he’s been a good driver but I don’t know so yeah it’s Rudy for sure Discord I’m still trying to get my MySpace working I wish my MySpace still worked I want to see

The pictures and like whatever I made my profile be that would be kind of fun wolves after dark twitch gaming why not exactly Rudy for me too disco Charlie keep Rudy yeah it’s Rudy it’s Rudy cool well get Rudy out of here we can’t get him the ball

Anyways yeah but cat I don’t know there’s things I see that I see that you posted the change.org for ARR Scott Foster uh oh that’s amazing oh can I donate to the cause that would be kind of fun wait Nathan aldorf I’ve heard that name before let’s see wolves after

Dark we’re signing the petition everybody sign the petition what the heck is going on I’m just trying to share my email there we go sign the petition there we go we can chip in 8 that’s crazy okay I’ve signed the petition I think I signed it anyways cheating a dollar sign dollar sign

Refs post hopefully that doesn’t get me banned on change.org um yeah there we go oh except it says built from day one what we have a built from day one oh well that’s a throwback someone tell us CP3 yeah CP3 would be in our corner for this one I think that would be

True good stream I’m going to bed Mark I think I’m going to bed well I’m not going to go to bed I am going to have some ice cream I think ice cream and M&M’s cool well it was great to see you all again um great to chat wolves even

Though we lost um we’re 44 and 20 um to go to 52 wins we need uh what do we need we need eight wins eight more wins to get to 52 wins out of our 18 remaining Games should be possible that’s the other thing that I forgot to mention um the schedule

Although it is difficult we have some winnable games okay we’ve got two games against Utah coming up here shortly we play the Pistons we play the balls we should beat the balls we play the the Rockets play the T the Raptors we play the Wizards and we play the Hawks those

Are eight games eight games that are not even just like could win games there should win games so we need to get ACH got to get ACH but all right we I don’t know if I’m back Sunday so um cuz I think I do have a shoot that night shoot

I do it might be bad timing we’ll see how it goes obviously just be subscribed have the Bell alert whatever on and follow us on Discord Twitter all that stuff so I will see you all 52 wins is still possible intro as the outro we’ll see you next time Peace [Applause] ande fires on the [Applause] Righty got up Violence my Goodness
