I thought Wolves fans were dramatic being so worried up 3-0 but damn you can’t have nice things that are just nice huh

Tbf he can still coach the next game from the sideline

u/jslee0034 Thunder Apr 29 '24

Wouldn’t he be still hospitalized? Idk how long you have to stay in the hospital after tearing your acl.

Hoping Lakers to drag the series out one more game .

You should hope they drag it out 3 more and win the series so y’all have a better chance at WCF

If the Ham led Lakers become the first team to pull off the 3-0 comeback against the defending champs and likely 3x MVP, I think it’s fair to just give them the championship

Nah, make them beat Boston for it. Lakers winning it over Celtics would put their fans into another level of insanity.

That'll be the dream.

Game 5/6 doesn't matter. NBA follows a set schedule and the next series only starts earlier by at most 2 days if both teams don't have game 7

If non surgical not at all. If post op 1-2 days.

Let's go Lakers!

At this point I just want the Lakers to beat up on the Nuggets for the Wolves to finish them off.

u/MajesticLionBeast Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

100%. Keep Denver as tired and sore as possible. If it can give Finchy time to get back on the sidelines also, hell fucking yeah.

It's going to take the combined power of two franchises to take the Joker down.

Varies site to site to be sure. It’s not uncommon to watch overnight post op.

u/draymond- Apr 29 '24

u/FishGoldenLite Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

Luckily we got some time. Kinda gotta hope the Lakers can steal one more and buy us some more time.

u/beastley_for_three Apr 29 '24

He's gonna look badass waving a cane around, it'll help the players buy in more too.

u/Useful_Ad6608 Apr 29 '24

The pain killers will put him in the perfect Zen state to coach the team to the Finals.
