    When Rudy plays like an MVP like tonight and totally dominates games I just don’t see any way that teams can beat us. His impact on these games have been absolutely massive.

    Jaden is fucking back! Locking dudes up and getting into his bag lately

    Ant fucking clutch again

    Also I fucking love Mike Conley.

    22-6!!

  2. Crosso221

    22-6 at Christmas.

    Never would’ve dreamt of that

  3. Such poise and resilience to stop the bleeding at the end there

  4. JimmyButlerWasWrong

    Ant took over at the end man. Insane

  5. sugaarray

    that kings run at the end felt like home. not allowing the comeback and closing it out did not. this team is different!!

  6. PointGodAsh

    This is a new feeling. Even when the Kings went on that streak I wasn’t internally freaking out. This team is so damn good.

  7. MrNineMillimeter

    I know it’s been said a thousand times by now, but past Wolves teams would’ve definitely choked that game away

  8. quietsam

    Holding the Kings under 100 is no joke. Excellent clutch-time defense.

    Edit: that Mike Conley interview was great. Says he still feels like he’s always felt regarding age.

  9. Correct_Fly5152

    How many times can we say we probably would have lost that one last year.

    The collapse was in progress and they just didn’t let it happen.

  10. crapfacemcgee69

    The Kings are scary team to play my goodness

  11. Wolvesin7

    Knew Ant would get his but Jaden and Rudy stepped up big on offense in KAT’s place

  12. jaden packing fox’s shit at the end was so nice lol get that weak shit out of here

  13. CoryTheKilla

    Jaden had some really good defensive plays in the last couple minutes there

  14. JustSeriousEnough

    Sad that Sabonis got the better of the Rudy matchup tonight as the Kings color analyst lady said.

  15. Bro this is crazy. What is this team? We won comfortably, on the road by double digits like 15 against the spread. And it felt…tenuous?! For a while at least. But then the Ant plays were just extraordinary and stemmed the bleeding at the perfect time. What an entertaining game.

  16. Monkey_D_eeezNuts

    Respect to Fox hooping without foul-baiting. Seriously allowed us to witness how special Slim is on the defensive end.

  17. EMCVengeance

    Talk about sucking the air out of the building!
    What a finish

  18. TheNorthernLanders

    22 WINS AT CHRISTMAS AWOOOOOOOO 🐺

  19. KnowledgePrevious

    Sabonis -17 but had a few highlight plays so Kings announcers said he won the matchup lmao. Gobert +27

  20. goingtothegreek

    A few notes:

    The difference between this kings game and the last is Jaden, his defense was the difference maker.

    Good to see Kyle’s offense have a pulse.

    Rudy is DPOY.

    Held another team under 100.

    Mike Conley is my hero.

    Grady’s Christmas calls were priceless

    I love this fucking team
