    Are the Timberwolves good or do they just have a good matchup against the Warriors? They've played them hard this season.

    So my wife manages one of the Warriors players Chinese social media account. It's great because it has made her a huge NBA fan, but I wish she did it for a Blazer player.

    Only thing Wiggins does are spin moves to the basket. Granted he's athletic as hell and good at them but still....

    KAT is really amazing.

    In another life, Wiggins could've been a ballerina.

    Holy shit Towns just played 1v1 defense vs Curry, chased him off the 3 pt line and made him shoot a midrange airball.

    If you gave Terry Stotts Karl Anthony Towns I'm convinced he could paint the Rose Garden gold....

    This Timberwolves team reminds me of the Thunder during Durant's second season. Sure their record sucked, but you can see all the tools are there.

    Give this team a proper coach, and they're a perennial playoff contender.

    Hate to admit it, but they look like they have loads of potential. I can imagine them being a real threat in a couple years, unlike that mess in Philly.

    I guess the refs want to get credit for 73 wins too.

    I can't believe I'm saying this, but KAT may be better than Lillard right now, and he's 20 years old.
