#Timberwolves Fans! Like many of us, Cory ( @MoronFunctional ) was disappointed in Anthony Edwards' homophobic comments this off-season... In response, he's donating $2 for every Ant made 3pt shot this season to Gender Justice & many fans are joining him!

@ontheprowl_MN The version I heard of the Jimmy/KAT’s GF thing is slightly more complicated, but that was def a big part of it. All the Wiggins stuff is revisionist… he was lazy except when he chose not to be. His effort now is a huge indictment on his character & behavior in MN.

KAT is just a fundamentally a dumb defender. Swings instead of going straight up, chases blocks, goal tends, gets tight when he shouldn’t, doesn’t fight early for position, reaches & gets off balance... Can’t think of a single thing he does well.
