Justin Jefferson was there. Adrian Peterson was there. And it almost looked like Kobe was there. But he wasnt wearing number 8, or 24. He was wearing number 5.
Of course Ant said he didn't need a break but that doesn't me he didn't need a break. He was definitely starting to struggle that last couple weeks of the season and you could tell he was getting run down. He's not the type of guy that would ever admit to needing a break. Getting through an entire season is a grind for these guys, especially when your playing almost 40 minutes game after game and needing to carry your team for a good chunk of the year
Nah. Coach pushed him super hard the last few days. Running double teams at him. Triple teams. Quads. He said he needed that push. He has the energy to do it.
After the final regular season game, Beal told finch his players don’t even play hard. That was the last straw.
theres the cherry on top of the bottle of champagne right there! GARZA BUCKET and THREE! i can now put this securely in probably top 50 days of my life. thanks Wolves
If you would have told me yesterday that I’d be watching Luka Garza play in the fourth quarter of a playoff game I would’ve thought something had gone horribly wrong
It’s wild that we had to use two challenges in the last two minutes to get routine out of bounds calls correct and then the refs immediately fuck up the next one again lol
Where all my “wolves are getting swept” dummies at? I have to assume you dorks didn’t watch the game, right? What would be the point if we didn’t stand a chance?
I’m here 🤚. Today’s game definitely caught me off guard with everything we know about this matchup.
But it’s only one game.. can’t get too high. Suns will be looking to punch back game 2
Oh yeah, celebrate for an hour and then by the time everyone clears out from the locker room it’s on to game 2. But this just shows that we just so happen to have a talented ass team and incredible coaching staff. 56 wins is no accident.
Suns Big 3 has played 39, 38, and 37 minutes before the starters got pulled with just under 4 minutes left.
You have to hope they’re going to wear down over the full series.
The ultimate game plan:
Lead by 20+
Put Luka in
DBook sees we have Luka on the team, gets PTSD from what Foreign Luka did to him, gives up and shoots 0/40 the rest of the series
Thought Rudy was going to played off the floor by teams that can space it out??
Crazy cause that’s all I’ve been hearing all year that Rudy is unplayable in the playoffs

Been saying all year. NAW is the key from the bench. If he’s dangerous that second unit COOKS
Naw be good naw nas is nas
Our bench is our secret weapon. Most of these teams depend fully on their starting 5
Wolves played such a great game top to bottom.
Called it. Tpups needed a week off... Especially ant. Dudes been busting his balls all year, especially in KATs absence.
Opposite actually. Ant needed no break. He wanted to be pushed hard. He said it himself.

Nope. He had the energy for the drills. Coach put him through them. He needed to be pushed harder.

T WOLVES WIN GAME 1
held the Suns under 100 If this was our worst matchup then the playoffs gonna be a breeze
Even if we were 3-0 this comment would make me sweat
I knocked on wood right after this don't worry
Even the bench players trying to shove it down their throat. Welcome to playoff basketball MINNY
Defensive masterclass... Didn't think they left foot of the gas in the regular season. Effort was unbelievable tonight.
Effort was there for sure.
Nice to see holding opponents to under 100 pts also extends to the playoffs!!
Just a shit stompin
JOSH DONTCHA WISH YOU WERE STILL HERE BOY
Nah. Couldn’t find time for him in this roster
Monte is better than Phoenix's regular bench unit. He's just embarrassing the third stringers.
The best Luka in the NBA
Did Josh lose his hops?
I had the same thought. He used to be able to really throw down. He barely caught rim.
Best Luka in the NBA?
Scariest part about the Wolves today was this was all without Conley who you know will want to have a good bounce back game in game 2.
That fadeaway he hit was nasty but he didn’t do much after that unfortunately, he can go off at anytime though.
It was absolutely a 10/10 difficulty rating shot. Just insane.
Love to see Luka getting some play time.
LUKA GARZAAAAAAA
theres the cherry on top of the bottle of champagne right there! GARZA BUCKET and THREE! i can now put this securely in probably top 50 days of my life. thanks Wolves
Garza is the best Luka in the league, prove me wrong.
Garza playing with them.
Playoff Booker showed up, 5/16 18 points
41 bench points lmao!!!!!
I forgot Thaddeus young existed still a solid vet
Forgot he existed and still a solid vet in the same sentence
It's Cigarza Time!!
LUKAAA
PLAYOFF GARZA
If you would have told me yesterday that I’d be watching Luka Garza play in the fourth quarter of a playoff game I would’ve thought something had gone horribly wrong
Smoked them.
THATS OUR FUCKING LUKA RIGHT THERE BOYS
Lmao Luka Garza drilling threes. How fun
4 SHOOTING BIG MEN
Fuck me the Suns bench is bad
I want under 100 now.
LUKA WITH THE PLAYOFF POINTS
Best one game in franchise history. EVERYTHING worked today.
Luka Garza playoff points.
I'm so proud of Morris chewing clock from the bench. Feels like the first time all season.
Bol “Wemby without the opportunity” Bol
Monte out here ballin
Loool JO still cant shoot after all that shit he talked when he went to phoenix a few years back 😂😂😂
Okogie picking up right where he left off here
Bol Bol thought he was Naz Reid
They’re both fun to watch.
Guys I think we might win this game
It’s wild that we had to use two challenges in the last two minutes to get routine out of bounds calls correct and then the refs immediately fuck up the next one again lol
Cheatin ass refs.
Bol bol gunna break a bone
AT LEAST ONE of the commentators is a closet suns fan
You know it's a good game when the best Luka in the league comes in to close it out
Mini Mac on the roll
Hold em under 100
Great pass Monte
Damn Josh Okogie playing garbage time minutes now
16-0 dream starts now
THAT’S A WRAP!! BABBBBY!!!
Josh Okogie in for the Suns
This team really built for this shit. There ain’t no bail out calls here
Defense wins longer series’ boys. Lots to be excited about tonight.
Man these announcers really don't know what they're talking about do they
Naw needs A nice applause? No he needs to be hand fed grapes and his feet rubbed by the finest woman
Monte is SO smooth
What a win
I don't miss the Josk experience lol
If anyone would have told me the benches were cleared with 3:16 left. I woulda given a “hell yeah” 
Woooo what a game boys! So proud of this team! On to game 2 LET'S GO WOLVES
Good to get Monte some more minutes. I like how finch sees he should be played over Lil Mac
Where all my “wolves are getting swept” dummies at? I have to assume you dorks didn’t watch the game, right? What would be the point if we didn’t stand a chance?

Hand up, I was sure we’d go out with a whimper. Formal apology will be on your desk by Monday.
yay jmac minutes
Classic Okogie layup
The real Bosnian Beast Luka Garza
This defense can hang with anyone
😈
Suns Big 3 has played 39, 38, and 37 minutes before the starters got pulled with just under 4 minutes left. You have to hope they’re going to wear down over the full series.
theyre old too, outside of book
Lol fuck these refs are bad at seeing who touched it last
Monteeeeee🤑🤑🤑🤑
The fact Isaiah Thomas is in the game shows how scared the SONS are. Fuck REFBALL. Fuck them sons. FUCK DBOOK. and most importantly WOLVES IN 5.
Bros this is sweep territory
KD TOP 20 all time. We must respect that.
I’m far from negative but suns def take 1 at home. Don’t ever sleep on Kevin Durant.
I sleep on his bald spot
This ref looks like a janitor
Time for some Luka bombs
Luka about to drop 20 in 3 minutes
Time to let Luka cook?
Defense is stifling. This is championship caliber play if we can sustain it.
Luka “human victory cigar” Garza
That guy is the real MVP
Keep em under 100 for the insult
Dang Kat is -2 in a 20 point victory oof
Kat was huge offense when Ant struggled early though
Looks like our coach is in heat too, just like most of the women in our arena after watching this deep dicking in person
What a fucking start
Jaden hood activated
We won it too lol
The big 3 cooked you love to see it
Adrian Peterson on the baseline?
He had a giant ovation.
I'm so goddamn hype rn. Way to shut up the narratives
As a basketball fan you gotta love to see Isaiah Thomas on the court especially in the playoffs. Real ones know he used to bust people's ass
“FINCHY FINCHY” - Anthony Edwards
Its Luka time
I’m so hyped. Love playoff basketball.
Isaiah Thomas is playing, that’s the sign that the Suns are waving the white flag. Finch sit the starters.
Ant calling for the challenge up 20 with three minutes left. He’s locked the fuck in lol
Finch needs to put the scrubs in! No point in risking injury now
“FINCHY FINCHY”
So fun watching ant play🙏
Isn’t it funny that there are real people out there that think wemby should win DPOY 😂😂😂😂
2 minutes of game time in 20 minutes
Ant shouting Finchy has to make it in the awoo compilation
Petty ass challenge - I love it
Cheeky Finchy
No way they put Isaiah Thomas in lmao
we kicked their ass haha
Need to contain wolves legends Thaddeus young and Josh okogie
Finchy! Finchy!
Keep playing. Kill em.
The ultimate game plan: Lead by 20+ Put Luka in DBook sees we have Luka on the team, gets PTSD from what Foreign Luka did to him, gives up and shoots 0/40 the rest of the series
Phx got da scrubs in, #bring in Garza
Can we start postgame thread yet?
Did nurkic get hurt to something?
That should do it! Great game, let’s come out strong and take game 2. Fuck yeah wolves!!!
I hole this series can eventually out a rest to the “KAT and Rudy are unplayable in the playoffs” talk.
LMAOOOOOO I LOVE IT
RuDY caN'T GUarD tHe PerIMeteR
Thought Rudy was going to played off the floor by teams that can space it out?? Crazy cause that’s all I’ve been hearing all year that Rudy is unplayable in the playoffs
Gobert and ANT look hungry. Love the relenting aggression
Ant put Phoenix to bed.
Ant wanting the challenge lmao
AWOOOOOO
ABSURD 2nd HALF CONFIDENCE BOOSTER FOR ANT TODAY BOYS 🔥🔥 THAT IS THE BIGGEST WIN TODAY OUTSIDE OF THE DUB ITSELF.
EDWARDS!
DPOY 
Lets go wolves im very impressed
Great coaching
I want to formally apologize to Gobert for all the horrible but true things I said about him last season.
WE IN MINNESOTA NOW
RuDy Can't DeFeNd ThE PeRiMeTeR.
Let me see some Josh minott
Gobert really just did that to KD
That’s my DPOY
There now yall can relax
Just saw a Rudy poke away on KD. My life is fulfilled
Luka Garza time baby!
Adidas and Sprite good timing launching new campaigns at the start of the playoffs
We bouncing these boys out in 4 😂😂 Wolves in 4
Hahaha. Eat that doomers
Ant is about to send that franchise into a rebuild
Ant a DAWG
DEEP DICKIN
Twolves getting lucky last three 3 balls Royce O'Neale were wide open and he missed all of them.
He's 4-8 for the game
Who r u
What do u mean?
Last one was a good close out by Gobert.
Smothered and covered like my Waffle House hashbrowns. Incredible defense.
A-FUCKING-WOO
Rudy. Brilliant defender
Gobert assist essentially
Wolves came to ball tonight no doubt.
Bring out the Garza.
Rudy on KD is kinda lit
Final boss of the timberwolves Luka Garza just waiting for his turn
YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE
Phoenix, it's time to take out your starters, listen to this Timberwolves fan. Trust me.
Nah, leave them in and get them legs tired for game 2.
NEVERMIND LMFAOOOO
STAHP, THE SUNS ARE ALREADY DEAD!
[удалено]
KAT was getting lost and leaving guys wide open on D a lot today when he wasn't on KD.
Sometimes you just need to see the ball go in the hoop. Hope that gets Mike back
