    Once Rudy pulled out the behind the back I knew it was over for the Thunder.

    If the dude with no bag is pulling that off its just not your night lmfao.

  2. You can take Pat Bev off the team but you can’t take Pat Bev *out* of the team!

  3. Meekie_e

    OKC needs a big man. They’re just too small to do anything against the Wolves.

  4. GGezpzMuppy

    Timberwolves building on that play-in dynasty.

  5. SuperStarfox64

    Hey, did you guys know Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Nickeil Alexander-Walker of the Minnesota Timberwolves are actually cousins?

  6. dosnetlive

    B2B playoffs for the first time in 19 years.

  7. LAL-27n29-Picks

    Vets are needed. Strength is needed. Reps are needed.

  8. Mahmoute

    It seems Shai’s only weakness was his cousin

  9. rumblegod

    Okc is not a good team just yet, but not bad at all fellas. Lots to look forward to.

  10. Magazine_Mediocre

    Props to Shai for trying to play with that busted eye. That looked like it’s gonna hurt for a while.

  11. Added 16 wins, found an All-NBA player, and got cooked in a game not one person expected us to be in – I’m cool with that. Absolute joy of a season!

  12. Well, not so good of an end. But this was an incredibly fun season. I’m proud of our guys, hopefully we can build off of this momentum! GG T-Wolves

  13. notafan1

    In 3 games that decide playoff seeding KAT averaged 27 points on 79 TS%.

    He should’ve shoot more vs the Lakers in the 4th/OT but besides that he played excellently and deserves credit for that.

  14. CleanMachine2

    ‪Congrats to the T wolves! The first real blowout of the post season! OKC has a lot to be proud of, next season they’ll be able to make a real playoff push. For now, Minnesota can pat themselves on the back for getting rid of negative noise, we’ll see what they can do in Denver!‬

  15. phirm_handshake

    Shai mentioned raising the national retirement age and Rudy just couldn’t take that 🇫🇷

  16. happy mike conley is in the playoffs good shit wolves!

  17. myhellcatgotRepod

    Wolves were the first team to realize that OKC got 13 dudes that are 6’6 and under on their roster

  18. zgamer200

    The TWolves clearly felt that they had something to prove after that loss to the Lakers.

    As for the Thunder, that’s a tough way to end their season, but they’re a young team with plenty of internal growth ahead of them & plenty of assets to make trades as well. OKC is in a great spot.
