"We all want No. 30 back, that is for sure," Jimmy Butler III said "But we want him to do his best for himself, best for our group. Until then, we can hold down the fort. I know we can."
I woukd say the same thing after I saw who showed up as the opposing team last night.

Wolves could have played like the '95 Bulls, and Butler would be just as confident. Part of why he is great, I never understood why most Wolves fans are so angry about him. He was absolutely right about KAT, he just said it before it was common knowledge.

It's unfortunate for the Dubs, but now they're just gonna have to improvise, adapt & overcome.

Isn't that always the correct approach when facing adversity, my fellow veterans?

Did any of you guys catch Finch shredding Edwards performance and demeanor in his postgame interview? I've never seen or heard anything quite like it.


Finch has done that a few times over the last couple of seasons. Ant doesn't take it personally and usually steps his game up when he's called out.

If tonight goes as expected it doesn’t tell us much about the series in general. Game 3 will be the barometer, we’ll see how competitive they will be without Curry but at home

If any team can focus and win a game or two without Steph it's these veterans...helps to have Jimmy they can plan around

Still don't see how they win game 2 but they should manage at least game 3 or 4, and perhaps both which would be crazy

Play some tough defense like the Knicks did in game 2 and Butler puts on his cape and turns into Playoff....Jimmy.

I am a little concerned that this was the second game in a row that the wolves played like ass. Not sure what has happened to their shooting, but they need to find it again.

How Edwards responds to Finch calling him out in the next game feels like a defining moment of his career. His initial response was underwhelming, but if he shows up and plays like Ant all will be fine.

I am bummed about the week for Curry, I want the Warriors at full strength. I hope he bounces back faster than the current expected.

Ant has something to prove after being called out. I'll be surprised if he doesn't have a big game.

And Curry, it sucks.

Him, Garland, Mobley, Hunter and I might be missing some big name injuries in the playoffs right now. Those were the only players I could think of without looking stuff up.

And if the shit plops down and shitty water hits the ballsack and snake....hop into the shower and clean up real quickly.

Shower is conveniently right next to the toilet.
