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…

The @Timberwolves head into #NBAAllStarWeekend having played an insane 61 games (out of 82). No other team has even played 60; four teams have played in 56 games or fewer. Exhausting schedule so far, now lots of rest. Impressive to be at 36-25. #AllEyesNorth #StatGeek
