He didn't want to take the L, and since I've been racking the Ls up, what's one more?
Sure seems like a scheduled with the Wolves getting back in the wee hours of the morning and the Thunder already here. Four more games until the trade deadline, with tonight being the only home game. TC gets one last look at the current roster construction playing against the best team in the league. Somehow, this game seems kind of important on a number of levels...

Re: FNG Made Me Do It - Thunder at Wolves GDT
Yeah, sorry I didn't have time to start today's GDT, Tim...I, um, had to wash my hair.
Sure does sound like a scheduled loss, and you have to wonder if Ant is even going to play after going 38 last night. But then again, there is some hope. OkC is really banged up...I think they are going to be missing Jalen Williams, Caruso, Wiggins and maybe Wallace. That's a lot of defense. And further, we seem to play them completely even during the regular season...we split 4 games last season and each team has a home win this season. This one could be closer than we think.

Re: FNG Made Me Do It - Thunder at Wolves GDT
This team seems to really dislike OKC and wants to beat them. I'm assuming they bring it tonight and it might help convince TC to stay away from major trades if they perform well.
Re: FNG Made Me Do It - Thunder at Wolves GDT
I think a trade is still going to be made. The question is what magnitude of trade. We have to at least upgrade the guard position off the bench. The Conley-Bones-Clark trio is really weak relative to where we want to go.
Re: FNG Made Me Do It - Thunder at Wolves GDT
Yes but those players won't be of much consequence tonight. Julius, Jaden and Joan will be able to make an impression, though.
Re: FNG Made Me Do It - Thunder at Wolves GDT
Looks like Ant is in tonight. Mike, TJ and Giannis are out, and Rudy is questionable with a sprained ankle. Several guys out for OkC.
Re: FNG Made Me Do It - Thunder at Wolves GDT
Just wanted to see if I could sneak it by you guys!
Re: FNG Made Me Do It - Thunder at Wolves GDT
TC told us at the stakeholder meeting that her believes we match up really well against OKC. The games thus far this season seem to support his view. So I don’t think TC views this game as a scheduled loss. Ant is playing. OKC is a bit banged up. We’re playing at home. This is a game the Wolves absolutely want to win and should win.FNG wrote: ↑Thu Jan 29, 2026 11:58 am Yeah, sorry I didn't have time to start today's GDT, Tim...I, um, had to wash my hair.

Re: FNG Made Me Do It - Thunder at Wolves GDT
Well, let's see how we fare once again against the clutchers, grabbers, and foul grifters. Could be fun. Of course we may not have everyone 100% checked in with the trade deadline looming, so I'll be glad when that's behind us, however it pans out.
