    Energy and effort is at an all-time high. We’re playing defense, we’re moving the ball, we’re hitting shots, and we’re having fun! Let’s keep this train rolling!

    Also PG Ant is a real thing. League better watch out.

    3 IN A ROW!

  2. Able-Bodied-Virgin

    How much longer are we going to pretend Naz Reid isn’t the best player in the NBA?

  3. sayqueensbridge

    Anthony “Latrell Sprewell” Edwards

  4. DoYouEvenDoubleLeg

    Damn this team has become fun again.

  5. ChbbyKttns

    Another game of Naz putting up the same stats as supermax bigs 👀

  6. Finch got these dudes playing with the skeleton crew when half of the sub was calling his head at the beginning lol.

  7. Background_Bad8165

    Jim Pete’s last words for the game “this league is about guard play, I’d start there.” If only someone would have told Tim Connelly

  8. flying_alligators

    I’ve seen enough.

  9. Terrorwolves are in the building! We haven’t seen the likes of this since the fabled Bahama Wolves! To the crackheads out there thinking KAT will screw this up, did you not watch last season? KAT thrives in this up tempo paced out game.

  10. bearbrannan

    Man Gobart and Kat really gonna have to learn how to fit, cause everyone else is clicking….

  11. Gyroflex

    Ant has to officially be given the keys to the team now, when Kat and Gobert get back you plug them in at a more awkward fit for their playstyles and let Ant do his thing. If we get Kat back and we put Ant back in the corner just watching games like periods last season im going to scream

  12. BeyondTimberdome

    Nowell really playing both ends recently, really great addition to an excellent team game

  13. 1000Isand1

    Didn’t care about destroying the Bulls.
    This was much sweeter.

  14. MisterBackShots69

    Some of this shooting seems unsustainable but I’m loving all of the other thing’s completely in their control. Effort, passing, spacing etc.

  15. VikingPain

    I don’t know what we’re gonna do when guys start coming back. We might have to start trading guys because there’s not enough minutes to go around.

  17. bearbrannan

    Ants definitely that dude! This run is having COVID vibes from last year!

  18. Sam7sung

    I’m just enjoying Ant’s game right now. The wins are secondary at this point

  19. All they do is win now.

    And win in a fun way without all the struggle.

    I don’t even know how to react.

  20. SurlyWet

    This is early January vibes from last year. Chemistry is such an interesting thing

  21. KnowledgePrevious

    Not to poo poo Naz’ amazing play these last few games, but before we get carried away about dumping our other centers, remember who he’s played against:
    OKC (no rim protection), Vucevic (awful defender) and Christian Wood (awful defender).
    These are the types of matchups we’d expect Naz to be able to thrive against. He’s thrived really well!
