Minnesota Timberwolves

The Minnesota Wild lost 3-2 in Game 4 of their first round playoff series at home against Dallas Sunday night. Star Tribune Sports Columnist Jim Souhan joined me on WJON. He says he doesn't think those were good calls against Marcus Foligno that led to a pair of Dallas power play goals.

The Timberwolves lost game 1 at Denver Sunday to open their playoff series with the Nuggets. The Wild open their first round series at Dallas tonight at 8:30, pregame on AM 1390/93.9 FM Granite City Sports at 8:15.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson requested a trade this month because they appear far apart on working on a long term contract that Jackson is comfortable with. Star Tribune Sports Columnist Jim Souhan joined me on WJON.

The Minneapolis Lakers played in Minnesota from 1947 until 1960, when they left to become the Los Angeles Lakers. It would be 29 years before another NBA team would take the floor as a home team in Minnesota.

Other than that small gaff, AROD was saying all the right things and looking like someone who wants to keep the Timberwolves here in Minnesota.

Minnesota sports teams have had some bad coaches and general managers in their history whether it be the Timberwolves, Vikings, Twins, Wild or University of Minnesota. Star Tribune Sports Columnist Jim Souhan joined me on WJON.

The Timberwolves are set to play the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 2 of their first round NBA Western Conference series tonight at 7:30. The Wolves are not accustomed to being a part of the playoffs which may be why they don't have the most dedicated fan base.

From now on, no more celebrating until we win as many championships as Charles Barkley did in his career.

It was a history-making game last night for Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns, who scored a franchise-record 60 points in a 149-139 win at San Antonio.

Towns eventually responded, admitting that he'd accidentally posted the Wordle results from the day before.
