The Minnesota Timberwolves will be talking about beating the Denver Nuggets for a while. Minnesota experienced a lot to get to this point, including losing a boatload of games. Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns acknowledged this Sunday in a hysterical post-game presser.
The Denver Nuggets had an epic meltdown at the end of the Western Conference Semifinals. They blew a 20-point lead, and the avalanche continued well into the waning minutes of the fourth quarter. Full credit goes to the Timberwolves for dialing in and completely unraveling the reigning champions.
Postgame, the vibes between Anthony Edwards and Karl-Anthony Towns were so immaculate that they produced one of the most unhinged yet amazing press conference moments I’ve ever seen. A reporter was setting up a question about losing big before winning when they interrupted the question to essentially ask rather pointedly — how much more losing do the Timberwolves have to endure?
Here’s that hilarious exchange (Warning: NSFW language):
“We lost last year…It’s the playoffs. We lost last year.”
“We lost the last two years. [Expletive.]”
” [Expletive.] How much more we gotta lose?”
“How much do you want us to lose?”
“We’ve been losing for 20 years!”
“How much more do you want us to lose, we’ve been losing for 20 years!” – Karl-Anthony Towns pic.twitter.com/eCGjys4ayf
