The @Vikings are the first team in NFL history to be down by 12+ points with under 20 minutes left in regulation and end up winning by 17+ points.

The Pohlads watched the Twins go 19-35 post trade deadline last year.

Tom tried to replace his dimwit brother and sell a bill of disingenuous goods, to which Derek Falvey told him to shove it, and they wind up running it back with a placeholder manager and a worse version of the pitching staff.

Well done.

@ESPNAssignDesk You do not have permission to use it — as I’ve told you numerous times in DMs. Shouldn’t have laid off all those reporters if you wanted locker room content.

Giannis Antetokounmpo is very interested in teaming up with Anthony Edwards, per @TheSteinLine & @JakeLFischer

“League sources say that the prospect of teaming up with Anthony Edwards holds strong appeal for Antetokounmpo, which led to some notable backchannel discussions in recent months that lend true legitimacy to Minnesota's status as a potential landing spot despite the undeniable obstacles that the Timberwolves would face.”

@robinsbxckley TJ sure loves talking about himself

[NBACentral @TheDunkCentral]

Trae Young has shown interest in potentially joining Brooklyn or Minnesota, but neither team has shown interest back 😬, per @JakeLFischer

“I'm told that Young’s camp has suggested Minnesota and Brooklyn, from their side, as two attractive potential destinations. Yet I'm also told that neither the Timberwolves nor the Nets are in pursuit.”

The Oklahoma City Thunder were rolling like a machine.

25–2 entering a matchup with the Timberwolves on December 19, looking untouchable, looking inevitable.

Then one night changed the energy.

That Minnesota game got loud as Chris Finch got ejected, later fined $35,000.

OKC lost, and they haven't looked the same since.

Since that moment? The Thunder are just 5–5.

Over their last nine games, they rank 26th in free-throw attempts per game.

For a team built on pressure and pace, that's a noticeable drop.

So it's fair to ask the uncomfortable question. Did that night change OKC's whistle?

Because whether coincidence or consequence, the numbers say something shifted.

I repeat, Kevin O'Connell continuing to call plays remains the one area where he constantly detracts from his own coaching abilities.

[Zach Halverson @ZachHalverson]

you can kick the field goal or you can run the football. you do not put a kid with less than a half of NFL experience in one of the loudest and toughest environments in the league in that position. unreal.

[Phil Mackey 🎙 @PhilMackey]

1 -- That's one of the dumbest, worst INTs you'll ever see in an NFL game. What was Max Brosmer thinking?

2 -- Most importantly... Kevin O'Connell is the worst short-yardage play-caller in the NFL. This is not hyberbole.

Let's roll out your non-mobile, UDFA rookie QB, on the road against a fast defense, and see if he can get to the edge and complete a crucial 4th down pass. Beautiful work.

Or, you could run the ball.

[Ted @tlschwerz]

Kevin O'Connell made a dumb decision before Max Brosmer did here tbh...

[SotaLew @SotaLew]

Putting your rookie QB, first NFL start in that spot and throwing the ball on 4th and 1 inside the 10 is Foolish. Hold the staff accountable. #Skol
