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 Blogosphere:
Takeaways:
1) We saw the good Teague tonight. More of this please
2) We saw the bad Wiggins tonight. Less of this please
3) The Rockets are freaking good
4) Wolves are not built to beat teams that make a lot of 3's
5) KAT was very good tonight. He can do this every game. Let him!— On The Prowl (@ontheprowl_MN) February 14, 2018

Guys….they're on their first truly bad stretch of the season, and are still a game out of third place in the West. A drop is certainly possible, but it's far from definite.
I want to see how they look after the All-Star break.
— Tim Faklis (@timfaklis) February 14, 2018
Spurs, Wolves, Thunder all lose. No change in 3-4-5 race.
3. Spurs 35-24
4. Wolves 35-25 (-0.5)
5. Thunder 32-26 (-2.5)Spurs are done until after the break. Thunder at Memphis tomorrow on a back-to-back (but it's Memphis). Wolves have the Lakers at home on Thursday.

Timberwolves Fans:
This Twolves game is ridiculous #AllEyesNorth
— David (@UnFadeable21) February 14, 2018
This game is a frustrating reminder that the Wolves are so close to being great but aren’t quite there yet. #AllEyesNorth
— Mat Peisert (@mat_peisert) February 14, 2018
Play Houston 10 times twolves would lose all 10. Have to shoot 3's to compete with the best. Still better to be in playoff hunt than not #AllEyesNorth
