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…

Oh, Jamal Crawford is going to try and take this game over? I'm okay with that. pic.twitter.com/nBUn0AqdAk

I just don't understand how a coach in the NBA can be so unaware of the situation and the rules. And it happens every game.

Why Thibs doesn’t play Tyus more after his 4 game of perfection completely baffles me

Takeaways:
1) Better effort
2) KAT has bounce back game
3) Teague, Taj and Jimmy good
4) Wolves made game too close
5) DAJ is a beast on the boards
6) 3 day break so high mins not big deal
7) A Needed W!— On The Prowl (@ontheprowl_MN) December 7, 2017

Plenty fine to complain about Thibs' minute allotments, Lord knows he has prior on this. But going into three days off into a five-game homestand (plus they've needed every bit of most of those minutes) gives me a little pause with complaining too much about it tonight.

Timberwolves Fans:
Great win start to finish for the Wolves. Played fast, moved the ball, got into it defensively. They need to remember this feeling. Let it roll over the rest of December. Get into a groove of playing like this every night so they hit that brutal January schedule running
