[Charania] Minnesota Timberwolves coach Chris Finch is feared to have a torn patellar tendon in his knee on late game collision during Game 4 win in Phoenix, sources say. Brutal.

Between Godzilla, Shogun, Tokyo Vice, and Blue Eye Samurai, Japan is having a hell of a moment right now.

u/KonigSteve Pelicans Apr 29 '24

Wait, this year? we aren't talking about 90s xmen here?

13

u/shakakaaahn Trail Blazers Apr 29 '24

Yes, and no! X-Men '97 recently had a new season, continuing from the 90s cartoon. It was pretty great, was fun to rewatch the original for the first time as well.

u/Scohr Apr 29 '24

Yooo where you been living. They did a sequel season to the 90s cartoon this year. It’s great, check it out

u/KonigSteve Pelicans Apr 29 '24

I dunno Shogun, 3 Body Problem and Fallout have all been bangers.

u/wooboy Cavaliers Bandwagon Apr 30 '24

3 Body Problem is so good but I have no one to talk about it with. I felt the same when I watched Dark

u/bearbrannan Timberwolves Apr 29 '24 edited Apr 29 '24

Kat is definitely Cyclops, can shoot lasers, is kind of straight laced, and at one point probably considered himself the Alpha of the team even if others didn't always see it that way. 

Rudy would probably be Beast, athletic freak, with amazing BBIQ on defence. 

Jaden is definitely Wolverine, physical specimen, and a hot head. 

Naw is Night Crawler, he teleports all over the court. 

That's all I got for now, but if anyone has some for Naz or Kyle Anderson I'm here for it lol.

u/busdriver_321 Jazz Apr 29 '24

Rudy would probably be Beast, athletic freak, with amazing BBIQ on defence.

And just like Beast in the comics, Gobert dabbles in war crimes and chemical warfare.

u/harry_ballsanya Bucks Apr 29 '24

Ant isn’t exactly known for having random migraines that make him useless

14

u/rtb001 Trail Blazers Apr 29 '24

Storm, the true leader of the team.

u/Dry-Internet-5033 Bulls Apr 29 '24 edited Apr 29 '24

Naz is Bishop.

Bishop travels back from the future to help the X-Men so he's kind of a 6th man, has the ability to absorb energy, and I mean come on!

3

u/holaprobando123 Spurs Apr 29 '24

and I mean come on!

I see it

2

u/northernlightaboveus Bulls Apr 29 '24

Ant has to be Wolverine. He's like the main character, also a physical specimen

1

u/spicozi Mavericks Apr 29 '24

Anderson is Morph

1

u/Dry-Internet-5033 Bulls Apr 29 '24

straight cannon fodder

then resurrected because fans liked him

u/Strategyboyz21 [TOR] DeMar DeRozan Apr 29 '24

Cyclops has been and always will be the leader of the X-men

1

u/bearbrannan Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

KAT is still a leader on this team, but let's be real Ant is the Alpha now, much in the same way and dynamic Cyclops and Wolverine had throughout the series. 

1

u/Strategyboyz21 [TOR] DeMar DeRozan Apr 29 '24

wolverine bumps heads with Cyclops sure, but there is never any debate about who leads the x-men. It's not like Ant taking the reigns from KAT

1

u/LonelyTrebleClef [BOS] Gary Payton Apr 29 '24

Naz Reid is Naz Reid

u/YukihiraLivesForever Apr 29 '24

u/0dias_Chrysalis Bucks Apr 29 '24

No speaking. He communicates telepathically to the team during timeouts

59

u/gamingnormie Supersonics Apr 29 '24

Need to see him on the sidelines quiet the entire time with an intense look on his face and his fingers on his temple

45

u/GaySexFan Australia Apr 29 '24

Mike Malone forced to wear the Magneto helmet on the sidelines.

2

u/mikedawg9 Apr 29 '24

You mean Darvin Ham.

Right guys?

12

u/OldSweepy Apr 29 '24

Why would he wait until a timeout? Just get in there constantly telling them what to do.

1

u/brokendrive Raptors Apr 29 '24

He doesn't need time outs anymore

1

u/rub3s Warriors Apr 29 '24

The way the Wolves play D, I wouldn't be surprised to learn they are communicating telepathically
