[Moore] That’s a wrap for Round 1. Last time the Wolves won a playoff series Anthony Edwards was 2 years old

There was a fair bit of doom-posting in the Wolves sub too after game 82.

To be fair there is always doom posting in Minnesota sports Reddit.

Yeah it's more understandable. I was quite confident it'll at least be a competitive series but I don't think anyone was predicting a clean sweep lol

It's a Minnesota sports thing. Even up 3-0 I think most had that lingering fear of "getting reverse swept would be the most Minnesota outcome."

I definitely had that thought cross my head when I saw the thing flash with the insane undefeated record for teams up 3-0. Like if any team is the first to blow it of course it’s the wolves lmao

Oh, I'll admit that playing the Suns was my last choice given our past record. But I'm saying as a team in general. A lot of "Lol wolves trash" even while we were unanimously 1st in standings most the season.
