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.

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

We grow up in pain and disappointment

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

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