It’s the playoffs, kind of.
The Minnesota Timberwolves beat the Los Angeles Clippers in the NBA’s Play-In Tournament last night. It kicked started the NBA playoffs. With the victory the Timberwolves clinched their second trip to the playoffs in 18 years. It had been a long time since the Wolves won a game that mattered in Minnesota and both the players and fans partied like it was 1999.
When TNT went back to the studio after the game the entire Inside the NBA crew made sure to roast the Timberwolves.
Shaquille O’Neal, Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley and even Ernie Johnson cracked jokes about the T’Wolves celebration like it was a bad thing.
"We need 'One Shining Moment'" π

The Wolves really only clinched the 7th playoff seed. Which is really great news for all of Minnesota but you must act accordingly.
What are they going to do if they win an actual playoff series??
