Golf coverage @ Sportradar. Packers and Wolves fan living in the cold sport tundra of MN. Game to talk about it. Tweets are my own. Hebrews 11:1

Wait, you mean players taking the max amount of money possible on every contract may hinder championship roster construction?! All it took was Brunson making 1 team first decision and win a ring, and rumbles are possibly already happening in the NBA. Let’s see where this goes.

Jay Williams:

“I've talked to a couple of different players that could be Supermax this year or next year — they're starting to feel a little pressure from team owners by saying, 'Yo, Jalen Brunson left 113 million dollars on the table. What are you going to do?'”

@kare11 Wait what. You mean to tell me the majority of people in the this state, Minnesota, aren’t fans of Donald Trump???! I gotta catch my breath, as this investigative reporting has caught me way out of nowhere.

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

@DayDreamThis In the context of this specific game though, the refs were horrible, and she was right. Especially after McBride and others had questionable calls against them just before. As long as Miles continues at Rookie Of The Year, and maybe Top 10 MVP pace, I’ll take the shenanigans.

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

Man, this @minnesotalynx team. Standing on business. #wnba

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

Hearing Gobert for Jalen Suggs trade package mocks. That would be extremely underwhelming if a multi DPOY gets traded while still producing, and a small package including Suggs is all we can get. It better include a pick(s). Take the “Homer” glasses off folks.

Saying something about serving the American people. My brother in Christ, you may want to sit this one out.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

The White House was built to serve the American people.

Tonight it was used to promote a company the President owns stock in, sell subscriptions, promote corporate sponsors, push Trump crypto, and enrich the President and his family.

The founders warned us about kings enriching themselves from public office.

They did not fight a revolution for this.

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

That would be a turnover......

We can’t be serious rn 😭 (via @NBA)

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

Nope, no way. In fact, it worries me that people aren't looking into why our organization's image is so down that they think we have to take "Home Run Swings" or overpays to go after past their prime, injury prone players like this. What needs fixing so we dont?

The Butler narrative on Kat and Wiggins was not wrong at the time. Both put in the work since and moved on to great situations and it paid off and worked out with rings. It’s almost like players can grow over the years. Let’s not do revisionist history. #wolvesback

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

@r_mack “Get ready to learn mediocrity Wolves fans”? Wolves fans already graduated with a PHD in mediocrity for what we’ve dealt with in team history. Now we are going back to college and trying to graduate with another major called “Winning consistently”. #wolvesback #themoreyouknow

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

@whatsontapnba @adukeMN I understand the thought from a contract perspective, but any other fit, we need to take a look into why with Ant being at the level he is, and if Jaden/Naz are as good as WE think they are, why do “big names” still treat the Wolves as moving to the Siberia of the NBA..,,,

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

Depending on the other moves involving Randle and Gobert, yes.

[Wolves Lead @TWolvesLead]

The package that the Bucks would be seeking if the Timberwolves want to trade for Giannis Antetokounmpo:

▪️ Jaden McDaniels
▪️ Naz Reid
▪️ Terrence Shannon Jr.
▪️ 2029 FRP
▪️ 2033 Pick

Holy crap. Bedlam. #nbafinals

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

This @minnesotalynx team is the nastiest I’ve seen in years. Removing most the doubt left, that they are the best pro team in the state.

[Ryan Clark @Realrclark25]

100% Knicks’ fans have proven they’re the best fan base in sports!

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

@nbaunitracker @Timberwolves No to both. The team is the “Minnesota” Timberwolves. Not just Minneapolis or Twin Cities. The Team and league needs to remember/acknowledge there are in fact fans in this state that don’t just live in Minneapolis or the Twin Cities, hence the correct designation. #wolvesback

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

Hypothetically speaking, what happens if the Knicks blow the Spurs out the water then??

[MLFootball @MLFootball]

🚨CRAZY🚨

Stephen A. Smith says he will blame President Trump if the Knicks lose tonight.

“If it causes the Knicks to lose tonight, I'm blaming him. I'm blaming the president of the US. Damnit, I hope the GOP loses votes because of it if we lose tonight”

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

Well aware of this fact from sitting up in the nose bleeds as a member for most of it. This is great to see.

[Jim Souhan @SouhanStrib]

Crowd for @timberwolves logo review. Team didn’t draw this well for GAMES in the mid 2000s

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

All wolves fans want the roster to improve. Next story.

Anthony Edwards Wants Wolves To Improve Roster https://t.co/zWdDIq7P42

[Tom Osskopp @tomosskopp]

This is why the Knicks are in the finals, not just because Kat was some unicorn that the wolves "wanted to get rid of". The Knicks got a stud that was willing to take a big discount, so they could build a great line up. Lets leave it at that, bitter #wolvesback/Kat fans.

[Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn]

In a largely unprecedented financial concession to give roster flexibility to a contender, New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson has agreed on a four-year, $156.5 million extension, his agent Sam Rose of CAA tells ESPN --- $113M less guaranteed than he’s eligible to receive in one year.
