Initial Impressions

Game one was a near-perfect game. Slight underdogs heading into Miami to face Giannis, the Wolves won by 25. They led by more than that before benches were emptied. Nearly everything went as we hop…

Ant just looked at every person to ever wear a “Miami Heat” uniform and asked “the FUCK is wrong with y’all???”

Have been most impressed by Jonathan Kuminga. Only guy on the team who can do anything defensively against Giannis, and fitting into a medium-sized role on offense cleanly.
