That’s okay! I was trying to be clever because I am a Jaden McDaniels fan account. (It’s him).
Defense appreciator. Put Cheryl in charge of the Wolves (and everything else)

Someday there will be a great book to be written about how Barack Obama chose to spend his post-presidency pursuing the private accumulation of capital rather than participating in the defense of our democracy in any meaningful or personally costly way.
I’m thinking out loud. Maybe this should have been a Jewel Lloyd skeet. Either way, I would have kept Plum.
I think Chelsea Gray is extremely overrated. Cheryl had to bench her for….Kelsey Plum….in order for us to bring home the gold in Paris. Then the Aces traded Plum.
Almost more scared of the Storm than that team we beat by 50.
Was mentioned with regard to Wilson, but I feel like it is generally true that the Volleyball background many WNBA bigs have helps them contest paint shots without fouling. One of the only NBA players I see go up straight with two arms is…who can guess?
Just for all of those who are deeply invested in my takes: Diggins is who I wanted us to trade Courtney for.
Someone ask Bam how many times he’s been the co-DPOY. *laughs in French*
Having an absolute disaster of a game and still hitting the game winner is the most Courtney Williams thing ever.
Her offense is obviously limited but she’s also absolutely fucking ice cold when you need her
If Court loses us this game because DI got banged up…
Kawhi’s last 5 seasons exist only in the metaverse.
In retrospect, I should have asked this person for their thoughts on Rob Dillingham.
I was at a hipster cafe the other day and saw someone with a #BanCars sticker on their MacBook. Made me think about how long it’s been since I’ve heard from my guy.
Guys now that there’s a break. Where is Nate in St. Paul? Is he safe? Is he all right?
Evergreen skeet.
Need T subbed in IMMEDIATELY
I would like us to make a 3PT basket.
I am really going to miss that man.
I like when the Lynx remember the Kayla McBride exists.
Court.......
The StudBudz thing has been very fun, but I’m worried my “trade Court” take after last finals is going to age too well.
Every Wolves fan:
Poverty franchise
Do we think Dane watches Women’s basketball or is he just off in a corner feverishly gambling in his Skims boxer briefs?
I hate Ruocco, but these announcers are quite bad.
I am getting concerned about A'ja Wilson's exceptional play, the Ace's dramatic turnaround, and the Lynx being meh lately. Not great for Phee's MVP odds.
I read this as “Middle-*Ages* Mutant Ninja Turtles.” I like that better.
I’m just watching the game now. Masha ripping Paige at the top of the key was extremely Rudy Gobert coded.
And maybe more to the point—I’m glad he’s not 3.5% percent, because his body would be fucking shutting down and he wouldn’t be able to play an NBA game, let alone 82.
I’m sorry, but anyone who knows anything about body composition knows that Anthony Edwards is not 3.5% body fat. Bodybuilders are not even 3.5% on stage.
I didn’t get to watch live, but it sounds like Phee is okay? Lol
Liberty are a punk ass team
Rigged officiating or not, there’s no way the Lynx lose the finals to the punk ass Liberty with Jess Shepard on the team.
We will probably lose if the Fever shoot 80% from three.
I am starting to look forward to the Timberwolves season, but one thing I’m not looking forward to is watching Donte DiVincenzo attempt layups.
Courtney…
Lynx playing bad, no Collier, still level with one of the top 3 teams in the league.
That first 12-point first quarter is going to be so rough.
Take your point, but she missed a ton of those open ones early in the season.
Lynx are a totally different (and maybe unbeatable?) team when BC is hitting.
👀 👀 👀
So the Lynx had like 6 days off, now they have a week of Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Sunday? What a league.
There are a lot of reasons I don’t like Kyle Theige, but this is pretty exemplary: Making a joke about Britt not being able to pronounce “Beringer,” right after he mispronounces “Joan.” Fucking idiot.
I think Rob’s fans view his potential as Allen Iverson with a three ball. I see his *ceiling* as an NBA version of Natisha Hiedeman.
I was triggered because last night I saw all the same tendencies from Courtney that—in my opinion—were one of the top reasons we lost in the Finals last year.
Also, did we forget that McBride is on the team in that fourth?
The number of rushed, off-balance jumpers Williams took in that 4th quarter was truly infuriating.
I wish I knew how people clipped from League Pass but I’m officially becoming Old™️
I never want anyone to get injured, but if Sophie Cunningham is out of the season, does that at least mean I no longer have to see any posts about her?
This is incredible.
I saw him at Unrivaled and somebody said I've seen you before and he was like yeah, I'm Courtney Williams' dad. He didn't even say his name then. 😂
I feel like if you put Cheryl in a room with Ant for 10 minutes she could get him to remove his head from his ass. Then again, I don’t think he respects women who aren’t members of his family, so 🤷♂️
While they are more talented relative to the league, the Lynx also display a level of seriousness and professionalism that the Timberwolves simply lack.
Blocking Ionescu twice in one possession (Alanna Smith) is my love language.
Also love how none of the broadcasts ever use Courtney Williams Dad’s name. He is just “Courtney Williams’s Dad” forever.
I am just watching Saturday’s game to get caught up for tonight. I laughed out loud when Fiebich pushed BC to the ground, then proceeded to airball a wide open three.
New in Minnesota and already making noise 🐺 DiJonai Carrington is adding an extra edge to the Lynx’s title hunt 💪 @hansen13.bsky.social breaks down how the Lynx just got even more dangerous with this trade ⬇️
Just watching the game now. JJ screaming at the ref after DiJonai stood her up on a drive is an incredibly entitled loser vibe. Wouldn't expect any less from a team whose only championship was stolen.
I’m sure @christopherhine.bsky.social is excited about that one.
@challengeitfinchy.bsky.social, legendary performance from the Lynx staff.
The Jaden McDaniels sicko to DiJonai Carrington simp pipeline.
Yeah. Maybe I’m doing that thing where I claim to have an unpopular opinion that’s not actually unpopular. I just know I got pushback when I was criticizing her in realtime.
DiJonai has been on the team for two days and already has the perfect shoes. What was Donte’s excuse?
Is it too soon to use this?
T was a lifesaver when Court played bad and she’s taken a big step forward this year. I’m hopeful 🤞
‼️ ‼️ ‼️
One of my most unpopular views is that Courtney was a major reason they lost the Finals.
Carleton making shots. It’s over for the league.
Saving this as a GIF for the inevitable Courtney Williams Playoff Hero Ball
Thanks, I always get thrown when my Real app skips ahead when there are no games.
Sorry if this information is already out there, but do we know if Dijonai is playing tonight?
That StudBudz + Dijonai content is going to do numbers.
😱😱😁
Can’t wait for that Timberwolves “Thank You Jesse!” post to drop.
I was thinking that, and also that she’s a perfect replacement for McBride as she ages out.
Seems like the Lynx getting Lauren Betts in the draft would be the objectively best scenario, but I like the idea of getting Azzi Fudd at 2 or 3.
Lynx fans are showing out tonight. #wnba
Court doing the SportsCenter interview while Target Center blares Pink Pony Club.
Thank God we took care of that poverty franchise.
BC is a difficult watch for me this season.
That banked 3 was a crime against humanity.
Now look at BC and McBride’s stat lines.
A’ja Wilson has this new campaign with Booking dot com that’s all about leveraging the double meaning of “traveling.” All respect to A’ja, but I think Booking missed out on having an all-time traveling icon rep their brand.
I wonder if they’d offer us something for Ingles—really round out the theme.
Being able to step away from hoops for a bit allows me to step toward so many other things. Like the poetry of Craig Santos Perez + the prose of Annie Dilliard. Like relistening to Kendrick's "Damn" straight through + seeing The Phoenician Scheme at The Heights in their comfy new seats. One weekend
In case there are any skeptics:
So…uh….the official Timberwolves app just put out a push notification “Goosebumps Every Time” for the Randle resigning. @brandonbeck4.bsky.social
Another massive L by the Pelicans.
I feel like Beringer would never try to rebound the ball with one hand repeatedly in a series of playoff games
We give the Lynx a lot of grace because they are a GOATed franchise, but that was bad.
I mean…we learn less when someone overperforms. Do we really learn less when someone underperforms?
Hey Kyle TEE-GEE: it’s “YO-ON,” not “YO-HAN.” MN sports media doing a really bad job of dodging the culturally sheltered allegations.
I'd be curious to know how many guys have played in Summer League AFTER getting significant minutes in the Conference Finals.
TJ did his best Ant impression in this game—capped off with a "C. Hines" shoutout in the postgame interview.
Imagine the contortions the NBA media would have to put themselves through if the Wolves contended for a championship with Rudy Gobert, Julius Randle, and Bradley Beal.
Pelicans summer league head coach is Wolves legend Corey Brewer
I've seen enough. The Wolves are winning the Summer League championship.
Rob's got potential but isn't there yet (7 turnovers, questionable shot). Sign Brad.
