I thought the foul was fairly minor. No way a t-2. Ridiculous.

I don't think us here on RealGM looking ahead to the next game has anything to do with the outcome of this one.

Man, these guys just keep making them. 65% from 3!! 13 of 21. You would think they'd cool off sooner than later.

Naz being out really hurts, but we should still be winning this. Can we cut it down a few points before the half.

Wolves players follow this forum religiously, thought you knew that.

Wizards can hold until the end of the half.

Seems like the refs are cheating us.

70 points to the Wizards in a half is embarrassing.

Wizards shooting is insane. 62% on a 21 3s in the first half?

No they are not. This is not the game that youre going to blame the refs. The team has no clue on what to do on defense right now

Still work to do. But even though it's just the Wizards, the start to the second quarter should assure people that the second unit depth is going to be the separator for the Timberwolves in the playoffs.

I think they might be cheating us. We do need to play better. We still have a chance to win.

Sometimes, certain teams just don't match up well against certain play styles.

Professional wrestling like refs. The worst in legit pro sports. The NBA has to make some big changes but they won't. I don't know how the owners condone it.

Let the guys play!! Call it the same way for both sides! Why is that too much to ask?

We won the 2nd quarter by 8 points. If we win the 3rd and 4th quarter by 8 each we win by 6.

Ant really needs to cut down on those Ts. The somewhat good news is OKC is down 19 at the half. If we win this one and OKC loses, it will be a lock for second place.

2nd half the Wizards will shoot less than 40% from 3 and we will pull this game out.
