2023/24 NBA REGULAR SEASON THREAD "THANKING FOR WEMBANYAMA"

you know how much i hate to do this but BUT he didnt dunk it

that’s true but it was still so fluid and forceful that i’m willing to count it

i know it sounds like im being ungrateful but it just frustrates me when they dont dunk it

ant needed to complete the “dunk shot”, otherwise it was just “a shot” albeit a wild, ridiculously athletic, floating in the air, shot

malika andrews asked if it was even a dunk and perk and richard jefferson were all that is a dunk because they were too invested in celebrating it already but she was right

its not as bad as when a guy slips and people pretend he got his ankles broken thats what i hate

were living in a world where the knicks are better than the warriors now

ok i know he didn’t technically dunk it but…

wovles missing their top 3 big men... vs joker

too bad this couldve been a premium match up

slomo has three fouls three minutes in thats one foul per minute

luka garza is guarding jokic now

nice ant put back dunk, he rocked the rim

dislike how the nbatv games dont give you a choice of announcers

next wolves home game theyre giving away naz reid towels, theyre beach towels that say naz reid on them

didnt want to shell out for a depiction of naz reid i guess

no that's a whole thing, on every Wolves story on the Internet Wolves fans just post NAZ REID over and over, there was even a Naz Reid sign on WWE a couple months ago

https://m.startribune.com/timberwolves-naz-reid-cult-following-chip-scoggins/600317108/

oh ok lol that makes more sense

btw ive heard this naz reid turned down more money to stay with the wolves arod was talking about it when he had the tan but it seem like he just turned down a one year longer deal at the same mid level type money

should be due a nice raise for the next one

A rod knows how to cheat I’m sure he slid him a few milli under the table

the wolves did that before

when you have the chance to get Joe Smith you do what you gotta do

lol #1 pick joe smith

big wolves comeback here are the nugs gonna lose again are they bad now

garza ripped joker

The kid is a snowman you love to see it

well made that one interesting at least

I’m in paris and couldn’t sleep for some reason — caught the last 2 minutes, not the prettiest crunch time performance by the non-jokic nuggets. why wasn’t gobert playing?

why did jokic have 2 assists tonight, that’s not very many

sprained rib

(Gobert)

well made that one interesting at least

super close to pulling it off hit a couple more shots down the stretch they wouldve been good

Ant since KAT has been out:

Anthony Edwards has averaged 31.1 points, 7.3 rebounds and 5.4 assists in 7 games in his last 7 games in his career.

only things that seems to be suffering over that stretch are 3pt% which could just be random but also could be because too much offensive load and turnovers which are almost def too much offensive load, overall holding up great to being a one man offense tho

obvs if youre the wolves you dont want this situation but its prob good experience for the lad

btw uhh

In their quest for majority ownership of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Minnesota Lynx, former All-Star infielder Alex Rodriguez and his business partner have reportedly hit a roadblock.

Rodriguez and entrepreneur Marc Lore have lost the financial backing of their private equity partners, according to current owner Glen Taylor.

While it is unclear why The Carlyle Group—a Washington D.C.-based private equity firm—is no longer backing Rodriguez and Lore, it is notable as the two businessmen have just one more payment to make to take majority ownership.

Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore have been working towards majority ownership of the Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx since 2021.

“They had an equity group that was going to come in and put in $300 million, and that equity group has either withdrawn or the NBA has denied them,” Taylor told Minnesota-based reporter David Shama. “They have to go out and find new revenue. That I do know. I don’t know if they found it or what they’re going to do. We haven’t seen the schedule of ownership yet.”

im sure theyll find it particularly considering its their final payment still kinda odd, doesnt seem like glen taylor has any idea whats going on, apparently he had the closing date wrong in the interview too

also interesting that private equity is buying pieces of nba teams, guess thats what happens when teams start costing billions of dollars
