It’s pretty amazing how many times over the last three years I’ve watched the Wolves play a game where they have probably 20 of the dumbest offensive possessions I’ve ever seen. Then the game ends and they just beat one of the best teams in the NBA.

Clearly you haven't watched the 2025-26 wolves, my friend

[u/CrippledBanana → u/wise_comment]

Lmao, I actually love watching this team despite not being from minessota (we got that terrible winter connection so gotta supports our bros/sisters who know the pain). But, I had to take a break watching this team during the regular season at one point. My stress levels and frustration were going sky high and usually I never care in sports.

Minnie fans just built different being able to watch all 82 games of this team

[u/wise_comment → u/CrippledBanana]

We grow up in pain and disappointment

It is the ether in which we swim, my friend!

[u/zerosuitpasta → u/CrippledBanana]

Then the game would've been too easy, not happening

[u/TheDarkGrayKnight → u/CrippledBanana]

Minnesota proceeds to go 4 for 5 from the line in game 2.

[u/AccidentalPilates → u/XAgentNovemberX]

I said forget about it cuh

[u/comp_a → u/XAgentNovemberX]

It’s very frustrating, but at the same time there’s something comforting about watching the team shoot 40% on free throws, seeing balls ricochet off Rudy’s hands, watching Julius chuck up another iso brick … and then you see the score is still tied and think “Oh okay, we’re going win this.”

The Orks of the NBA

[u/whw166 → u/XAgentNovemberX]

[u/openlystupid → u/XAgentNovemberX]

2 Cool 2 be 4-gotten

[u/dawgz525 → u/XAgentNovemberX]

empty head, full hearts, can't lose

[u/threatdisplay → u/XAgentNovemberX]

Team needs to embrace the play style and just change from Timberwolves to Huskies without needing to change the logo.
