Did Ant even play in this game? I don't remember much of anything from him.

Beal and Ant talking some mad shit to each other this game.
Minnesota broadcast:
"There’s a lot of smack talk coming out of Bradley Beal's mouth. He’s talking to the wrong guy!"
These announcers were pathetic! Then they were asking for suspensions because the Suns bench came down during the altercation. Is that even a valid rule during a time out?
I don’t know if I’ve ever hated the announcers from the opposing team as much as these guys today.
They're huge homers and constantly play the victim. Making it out of the 1st round once in 33 years might have something to do with it.

So generous of the officials to start calling every touch on one side of the court for the last 3 minutes.
They did their best but it wasn't enough on this day.

Ugh. I didn't check on Denver. I certainly don't want to play them in the first round but I'd probably rather play them than OKC.
ETA: OK...Just went and looked. Phew!

Wow! What a first quarter; 44-22 after one! The Wolves DO NOT want to play the Phoenix Suns in the playoffs.
And yet they must!

I know it’s really early…but that Beal dagger 3 at the end of the first might’ve been game
Twolves are gonna come back and win huh?
Uh... no. That's a negative.

Keep making dumb fouls Minny
One of the reasons I'm glad they're our first round match up. So many dumb fouls down the stretch when we were in the bonus. Also some dumb shots (I'm looking at you, Towns.)

Thunder up on Dallas 108-57.
I didn't see any of it but I imagine Dallas is playing their scrubs and not trying. Has no effect on their seeding.

Grayson coming up huge
Yep, he did. There was this narrative starting that he can't hit shots in big games. This was nice.

Beal being the main aggressor letting KD and Book float is crazy to watch, where was this all year?
Better late than never!

Ya this was the one matchup I feel kinda good about. We should win. Denver waiting round 2…which I weirdly prefer to OKC
We would play the winner of Clippers/Mavs, no?
ETA: I guess not. Winner of Nuggests and Pelicans/Lakers.

We were saving it for the playoffs haha
Maybe I was wrong about that switch.

I remember when a lot of us were frustrated at chasing regular season wins only to be worn down for the playoffs.
Maybe we have our Warriors moment from two seasons ago.

Kinda funny to see Okogie play like he’s Booker
Would you bring him back for next year? What if this is the offseason he finally develops a 3pt shot?
You might grow old waiting for him to develop a consistent shot...
I wouldn't know anything about that.

We did well on him this year but hopefully this isn't something that bites us in the ass and he averages 32 in the 1st round against us.

I thought I heard that the Suns had one of the toughest 10 game stretches in NBA history. Was it the toughest to end the year, or toughest period? Perhaps I didn't hear that correctly either. Well, to get ready for the playoffs, they finished it 7-3. That seems pretty good.
It was the last 10. Every team was 10+ above .500.
