Timberwolves

"I think the ceiling is lower maybe this year and could be higher in years to come."

And the depth featuring Jaylen Nowell, Taurean Prince, Kyle Anderson, Jordan McLaughlin and Naz Reid is about as offensively gifted as it gets. The Grizzlies have their core back, as do the Suns and Mavericks, while the Nuggets have a healthy Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. "I think the ceiling is lower maybe this year and could be higher in years to come," he explained.

Anthony Edwards scored 30 points, and the Timberwolves beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 116-106 on Sunday night. “Something we preach to each other is, it’s a 48-minute game,” Robinson-Earl said. The Thunder made just 9 of 41 3-pointers. Guard Josh Giddey left the game with a sprained ankle and did not play in the fourth quarter.

Their offseason acquisition Rudy Gobert played limited minutes after a prolonged FIBA run with France, and Karl-Anthony Towns battled another severe illness; ...

They have yet to look like a cohesive group, but it is still extremely early in the process. So far, Gobert has feasted on rebounds as he leads the league in offensive rebounds per game (6.3), is tied for first in defensive rebounds per game (11.7), and leads the league in total rebounds per game (18), per Jaylen Nowell is out for blood as he pursues a new contract and potentially a Sixth Man of the Year award if he keeps this up. As the season progresses, the opportunity for Forbes and Rivers to earn a regular rotation spot will likely diminish. They were signings that were an encouraging step in the right direction in terms of rebuilding last season’s depth. Obviously not at a 20 minute a night level, but certainly more than the minuscule appearances to close out a half. They are second in offensive rebounds per game (15.7) and second in defensive rebounds per game (40.7). One of the big concerns with the Gobert trade was the departure of leadership, defense, intensity, and versatility. Through three games, the Timberwolves have been outscored by opponents by 24 points in the third quarter. Luckily, the Timberwolves start the season with plenty of opponents who, on paper, shouldn’t present much resistance. Simply having Timberwolves basketball back was a gift but entering the season with actual expectations was a new sensation. In typical Timberwolves fashion, though, the lead up to the season wasn’t entirely smooth sailing.

The Oklahoma City Thunder fall to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday in their home opener while missing key pieces up and down the roster.

The Minnesota Timberwolves just overwhelmed the Thunder with their size and stars. Now, on the second leg of a back-to-back, the Oklahoma City Thunder had to take on the Timberwolves again.

I moved here to go to school and live on my own. In Oregon the SLVS is known as the Timberwolves. I got into bike theft recovery because someone stole my bike long time ago before there was a SLVS. Royal Johnson: SLVS stands for Sith Lord Vader Squadron, the SLVS Portland chapter is one of five chapters in four states. (Last month The Oregonian profiled [a group of volunteers who track down stolen cars](https://www.oregonlive.com/crime/2022/09/as-portland-nears-car-theft-record-victims-band-together-to-find-stolen-vehicles.html).) I recently heard about a local group that’s not only ferreting out stolen bikes, but is also trying to train up a new legion of volunteers to help them scale up operations. And these days with social media platforms to help organize and inform, the potential for do-gooders to make an impact is stronger than ever. I have lived in Portland since 2014.

I love working at Bally Sports, I love working with the Timberwolves, and I love being with the Lynx. — On making the Hall of Fame: "I went to Lindsay Whalen's Hall of Fame ceremony, which was amazing. — On the Lynx championship run being almost impossible to replicate: "It's been a while since the Lynx have been in this position — probably not since 2009 or 2010, when we really started to change what the Lynx were before that. What do I need to do to get this going?' The good thing is they respect [Finch] enough to listen to what he feels like they need to do, and that's half the battle.'' — On the Wolves winning their opener Wednesday: "They were up 16, then down six, and I think they kind of reverted back to some of the things that were happening last year. I think they're going to have a 50-win season, but it's not going to be pretty all the time.''
