What the hell! Let's jinx the snout of this one...
One thing you can say about the Wolves: they haven't peaked too early. Now would be a good time to start peaking: win in convincing fashion and be playing well heading into the WCF.
Closing It Out - Warriors at Wolves Game 5
Re: Closing It Out - Warriors at Wolves Game 5
Will we be graced by any former Wolves legends at the game? Todd Day? Reggie Slater? Mike Wilks?
Re: Closing It Out - Warriors at Wolves Game 5
The Wolves have 3 chances to move on. Tonight is by far their best chance of the 3. Hopefully Draymond does something stupid to get tossed, one of my favorite NBA events!
Re: Closing It Out - Warriors at Wolves Game 5
Did anyone else see that Draymond got fined 50k for something he said to the officials. I don't' remember him getting a tech during the last game.

I can't say this is certain, but the rumor is Smilin' Wes Johnson and Wendell Moore have scored a couple seats right next to Lip. Rashad McCants couldn't come up with the scratch to buy a ticket, but Abe has kindly invited him over to his house to watch the game with him.
Wolves are 10 1/2 point favorites, and the crowd should be properly liquored up and rowdy by 8:30. Let's open up a big lead and give the kids some playoff experience in the 4th quarter!

Re: Closing It Out - Warriors at Wolves Game 5
Whenever the Wolves have felt themselves this season they've laid down. So this is probably the toughest challenge they have. Everyone is picking the Wolves now. Saying it's already over!!!
I kind of think either two outcomes are likely, the Wolves get up big and put them away early in the 4th after GSW quits (like a Draymond ejection and Jimmy dejection which I enjoy also). Or the game is close and it's a tossup with 2 minutes left. I really hope it's not close in the last 2 minutes. Just stomp on these guys while they're down. You give a team life and you never know.

Ready to dispatch the Dubs. Let's wrap it up and get out of this series healthy.
Re: Closing It Out - Warriors at Wolves Game 5
Steve Kerr gives the Timberwolves some pre-game motivation by saying Curry possibly could play in a Game 6...reduces the chance of us coming out nonchalantly.
Re: Closing It Out - Warriors at Wolves Game 5
3 assists from Ant and early scoring from Ju.
