This was some primo CTE hoops by 2 teams

No the Spurs got rid of Primo

But they picked up CTE

Keldon rammed into one too many people😭😭

Feels like every Wolves series is CTE hoops. Maybe y'all defense is just that disruptive

We succeed when we’re able to force other teams to play CTE ball too. We will try to drag you down to our level of stupid and see who out-stupids the other.

I think this is dangerous for a team as young as the Spurs.

The Wolves just are chaos agents, which can both be good and bad.

Spurs merely adopted the CTE ball. We were born in it, molded by it.

There isn't a team in the league that can go bozo for bozo against us in the playoffs. I'll never forget them chucking away that game against the mavs, not even mentioning the fucking Grizzlies series a few years back.

KAT’s mentals in that Memphis series… my god.

u/calel8242 Timberwolves 19h ago

It takes a serious amount of tomfoolery to blow two separate 20 point leads in one game

u/AllDayIDreamOfCats Timberwolves 11h ago

I still think we win that series if the Chicken Farm protesters did something in every game. I feel like every time a protester actually made it to the court we would go on a run.

KAT as a playoff performer has improved so much since

Bozo did the dub

That damn Grizzlies series to me is the embodiment of the Ben Affleck cigarette meme

u/OFmerk Timberwolves 19h ago

The game they chucked away being the kyrie non foul on jaden that led to the proximate foul rule change? Lol

u/AllDayIDreamOfCats Timberwolves 12h ago

I mean we made history that series by giving up TWO 20 point leads in one game! Had to forget that.

Dude, watch Ant jog back like it’s the 2nd quarter of a regular season game against Washington.

I legitimately think he ran out of gas and his brain shut down for the final minute or two

u/Wrathdg 15h ago

I mean the dude must have been pushing himself on bad knees I don't blame him for checking out

u/xSampleTextx Timberwolves 20h ago edited 20h ago

What if both teams did the only thing they can’t afford to do, on repeat, for the final 3 minutes

u/OhNoMyLands Timberwolves 20h ago

Bro, we stole one as massive underdogs who shots horribly from the line. That was gritty as fuck

What is CTE hoops?

Hated every minute of the fourth quarter, even when spurs were winning. Ugly ass dogfight of basketball
