I’m not here to recap the games. You could read about it elsewhere.
What I’m here to do, and what I’ll be doing for every game, is document your reactions—yes, you Timberwolves fans!—-during the game and after the game.
I may chime in as well if there’s anything more to be said, but my thoughts on the game are, for the most part, the same as yours.
You may be wondering, “Why am I doing this?” Here’s the reason, and it’s pretty straightforward when you think about it: I want to represent your voices, Timberwolves fans, as often as I can, in each of my posts.
I don’t care if you have two likes or one retweet—or none at all! If you had something to say, be it observations, reflections or, better yet, impulsive reactions, I’ll be looking your thoughts.
So with that said, and I’ve said enough already, let’s get to your reactions!
During The Game…

Timberwolves fans:
Towns has struggled passing out of the double-team recently, but did a nice job of finding a cutting Butler there for the and-one.

Towns’ defense is frustrating….

Offense stagnating now. Trust dissolving

Takeaways:
1) This is a bad loss
2) KAT invisible!
3) No one plays well down stretch
4) This won't help people stop questioning Thibs.— On The Prowl (@ontheprowl_MN) December 5, 2017
Man… hard screen by Wiggins on Butler's guy here and Butler is (even more) open in the lane. The game really pivoted on this play and its negative result. pic.twitter.com/G2EBk5KEcM
