Karl-Anthony Towns is a beast. Andrew Wiggins is a beast. Zach LaVine is a beast. All three of those players are beasts, and yet the Timberwolves can’t win any games. That much beastitude should be, by itself, worth at least 40 wins, but they haven’t earned even close to that many. What’s the problem up…

Zach LaVine 19 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (1/29/2016)
Sorry for the amount of replays shown in this video. I don’t normally show this many, because lots of the time replays are used as filler to pad out a broadcast, and thus depict substandard plays unworthy of being replayed, but this time they were all justified. Zach LaVine pretty much did highlight-worthy stuff the…

Attention Timberwolves commentators: please stop calling Karl-Anthony Towns “KAT”. Just stop. On a team that can be called the “Wolves”, there is no place for cats. Too much incongruity. Attention Timberwolves commentators whose names are Jim Petersen: please stop talking about advanced basketball stuff including but not limited to: what plays the Timberwolves are running,…

“Dear diary, Today more of the cursed white sand fell upon the land of Minnesota. My teammates know it by the name “snow” and assure me that it is a normal occurrence, but I do not believe them. It is a curse brought down upon them by God. I know this because Africa, the land…

Bang! Bang! Boom! Crash! You launch yourself from your chair to a huddling position underneath your desk. What’s going on? Have ISIS finally come for you? You start making peace with your life. “It’s been a grand time, but all good things must come to an end.” You close your eyes in one final prayer,…

I was going through my old videos for archival purposes, and, on a 3-ish-year old vid, don’t remember which one now, I saw a comment that intrigued me. Not the comment, actually, but the username of the commentor. “Karl Towns” Now, this is gonna seem like wishful thinking, but I bet it was the real…

The Timberwolves’ young core gets talked about a lot in NBA circles. Wiggins, Towns, Rubio. A big three that will take Minnesota to the promised land or at least make for some fun viewing for a few years until the team is dismantled. But no one ever includes the fourth piece of the championship puzzle,…
Read MoreKarl-Anthony Towns 20 points Full Highlights (1/19/2016)
It’s not going to be very long before a 20-point game by Karl-Anthony “George-Carmelo” Towns is a commonplace occurrence which barely deserves to be noticed, let alone immortalized in Full Highlights format. I foresee a future in which KAT has to score at least 34 points before I even raise an eyebrow. That’s how much…
Read MoreAndrew Wiggins 25 Points Full Highlights (1/15/2016)
At what point do I say “enough is enough”? Andrew Wiggins has gotten to be a pretty good player, despite being a first overall pick playing for the Timberwolves (awwww yeah low-key dis on Anthony Bennett!). Scoring-wise, at least. Over 20 points per game for any prospect in their second year is damn good. The…

Oof. Sorry folks, no “Andrew Wiggins goes to basketball camp and smokes some weed and maybe some weird stuff happens or maybe it doesn’t” story tonight. DownToBuck ate too many buffalo wings, and is now suffering some ill-effects. If my other descriptions seemed a little incoherent tonight, well, now you know the reason why. It’s…
