00:00141 to 125. The T-Wolves get it done against the Grizz. Ant had 44 points.
00:09Julius Randle actually had a huge game too. 31-10-5 for him.
00:13But in the third quarter is when the T-Wolves shine. They scored 52 points.
00:18That's the most any team has scored in a quarter in the NBA this season.
00:23Ant was raining the threes on TNT.
00:26I had it as a moving screen myself. Here's Edwards. He shakes Aldama. Buries another three.
00:32And he's got a 40-piece in Memphis tonight. Jackson frustrated, flailing his arms.
00:38I thought he got fouled. Edwards for three. Okay!
00:44I mean, the guy was just seeing the ocean. I mean, he really was. So it was all falling.
00:50He said that he felt like he blacked out. Like, he just didn't even care how many of them he shot.
00:57He said they were all going in. He didn't know which one was which.
01:00And he was just simply on fire. So I noticed from the beginning of the game, Mike,
01:06that the guy just, every time he touches the ball, he shoots.
01:08He doesn't. He is all about scoring, man.
01:12This guy is like, give me the ball and get out of my way.
01:15I think especially considering the spot that we're in now, right?
01:20Like, they had that bad loss the other night to the Bucs, which they should have won that game.
01:25I mean, let's be fair. What were they up, 24 in the fourth quarter?
01:28And they lost that game. So, you know, this is now do or die.
01:32I mean, not only do you not want to play in the play-in game, you don't want to play in it on the road.
01:36So it was huge for them to get that win.
01:39And he basically just said, get the hell out of my way. I'm going to get us there.
01:42And that's precisely what he did. So huge night for Ant.
01:45Now, Ja, on the other hand, he had 36 for DeGrize.
01:51Had a good game, but unfortunately it was not enough for him.
01:54Here he is afterwards talking about how their defense is abysmal
01:58and they have to go to Denver now tonight on a back-to-back.
02:02Another team that's with them right in that cluster of West teams
02:05that are trying to get all those spots not in the play-in. Here's Ja.
02:09How do you turn the page in less than 24 hours and play Denver in the altitude, man?
02:13We ain't got no choice. We put ourselves in this position.
02:17Is that adjustment, you know, you're about to hop on the plane, get to Denver,
02:21play a game in the West 25 hours. Is that more mental or is it actually a physical thing?
02:25No complaints from me. I'm ready to go to Denver.
02:31What is the message coming out of this game?
02:34Obviously hitting the reset button pretty quickly.
02:36What is your message to the team next on the way you guys have been with it?
02:39Play some f***ing defense and go get a win.
02:43What's the biggest key to...
02:45Defense.
02:45Yeah.
02:47Like, I'm saying, on the defensive end, what you think is the biggest key to kind of get y'all...
02:51What you felt like the problem was today?
02:54A lot of things?
02:55Yeah.
02:57There you go.
02:57So, I thought some of the questions were stupid. I really did. I was just listening to them. It was one after the next.
03:06What do you think the key is? What are you doing? How hard is it to fly to Denver?
03:12Do you think it's physical or mental or...
03:14What do you think you got out of this game? What did you learn? Is there anything you learned?
03:18Do you think you can go back to back? You can play this team tomorrow night?
03:22Like, duh.
03:25Of course they have to show up tonight and play.
03:29And they played no defense last night. They gave up 52 points in the third quarter. Lights out.
03:35Lights out, indeed.
03:36And, of course, he also had the comments about the... I guess, what's he doing now? He's throwing a grenade in the crowd?
03:43And covering his ears and the whole deal.
03:46Like, I just think he's got a... I hate to say it. He just refuses to grow up.
03:53I mean, he just is just such... He's so immature and so defiant.
03:58You can even see when he does interviews, he's angry.
04:01He's angry at the world, it would appear to me. Hates everybody.
04:05The media, other players, the refs, the league, the commissioner, the man.
04:14I mean, he can't stand anybody. The po-po.
04:17I mean, he's been in nothing but trouble there the last couple of years.
04:21He's been suspended. He's had everything he thinks, you know, thrown at him.
04:26Like, everybody's out to get him.
04:28It's the other way around, bro. You're just a child.
04:30You act like a child.
04:32And this is what you get.
04:34I mean, he is the epitome of a guy that just doesn't get it.
04:39He won't learn his lesson.
04:41I mean, they're just going to keep spanking him until his ass bleeds.
04:45I mean, how many times do you have to be in trouble before you finally grow up?
