Adidas and James Harden are just about wrapping up with the Harden Vol. 7 colorways and are expected to launch the Harden Vol. 8 very soon. Harden has been seen wearing his eighth signature shoe since joining the Los Angeles Clippers. But with the Harden Vol. 8 not even released worldwide yet, it seems that there are already photos of the Harden Vol. 9 all over the sneaker community.

The Harden Vol. 9 seems to have a very futuristic design to it compared to the Harden Vol. 7 but the Harden Vol. 9 seems to have the same foam technology as the Harden Vol. 8 and Newly introduced Adidas AE 1. While nothing has been confirmed as of yet it seems like this Harden Vol. 9 is very early in development and could be subject to change. 

While the Harden Vol. 9 is still far from releasing, Adidas surely plans to release many exciting colorways of the Harden Vol. 8 over the course of 2024.

The Minnesota Timberwolves Fall To Zion & The Pelicans (117-106)

The Minnesota Timberwolves Fall To Zion & The Pelicans (117-106)

Featured

by | Jan 3, 2024 | Featured, Minnesota Timberwolves, NBA

tonight would be the fourth meeting between the New Orleans pelicans and the Minnesota Timberwolves. This also gave the Minnesota Timberwolves fans a chance to finally watch Zion Williamson in person this season. Both teams match up perfectly against each other in tonight was another clear indication of that.

The game started out, neck and neck as the pelicans and Timberwolves were going shot for shot. It wasn’t until Rudy. Gobert got into foul trouble when things started to change for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Once Rudy Opia picked up two files, the pelicans made a point to attack the paint and both Zion, Williamson, and Brandon Ingram took full advantage of that tonight. Once Rudy Gobert was taken out the game early. It forced Minnesota to go smaller when they put Naz Reid in the game. Naz Reid does complement playing alongside Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards, but it just didn’t work out on the defensive end tonight.

The Minnesota Timberwolves did a good job defending Brandon Ingram as he was trying to make tough shots all night long and he finished with 19 points on the night. The biggest problem for Minnesota was Zion Williamson was going to the paint and attacking the defenders that were in foul trouble. Once Zion made his decision to go to the rack, it was tough for the Minnesota defense, because when Zion attacked the paint, he drew the defense in and kicked it out to wide-open shooters like CJ McCollum, who are able to take advantage. Zion Williamson finished with 27 points and he was able to bully inside the paint all night long without Rudy Gobert there to help anchor the interior defense. If Rudy Gobert wasn’t in foul trouble, this game would’ve went a lot differently in my opinion but it’s tough to take away a defensive player of the year and try to replace that against the talented Pelicans team.

It seems like every single time the Timberwolves were making a run that CJ McCollum or Brandon Ingram made a tough shot that was contested, and there was nothing that can be done about it. The pelicans have some tough shot makers on the team and so do the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight was just the pelicans night. Can’t do much about it, but shake a man’s hand and say good shot.

The Minnesota Timberwolves didn’t go away quietly, as Anthony Edwards finished with 35 points on the night with 5 assists and 4 rebounds. Anthony Edwards was able to turn it up in the second half but the lack of stops on the other end made it tough to come out with a victory. The Pelicans didn’t beat Anthony Edwards tonight he was 11/22 from the field and just didn’t get the calls that he’s accustomed to getting. Karl-Anthony Towns had an off night as well and was able to see his shot go down in the 2nd half. This Timberwolves team is talented and loaded enough to hand with any team but tonight just wasn’t the night.

The Timberwolves will be looking a bounce back against the Houston Rockets on Friday as they look for their 25th win of the season.

Minnesota Timberwolves Defeated The LA Lakers (108-106) In A Nail Biter

Minnesota Timberwolves Defeated The LA Lakers (108-106) In A Nail Biter

The Minnesota Timberwolves came in today’s game no and it was a huge Saturday night match up against LeBron James and Anthony Davis. Today, LeBron turned 39 years old and this season alone, shows that the age hasn’t caught up to him.

LeBron was questionable coming into tonight’s game as he wasn’t feeling well, but ended up shooting up in front of the Minnesota crowd. The target center was filled with purple and gold for the Lakers but it was the Timberwolves fans who had the last laugh as Anthony Edwards showed why he’s one of the best young stars in the NBA.

It’ll be another star, Anthony Davis who came out putting the Lakers on his back as the first quarter he was able to get every single thing he wanted inside and out the paint. Anthony, I was able to be aggressive to the point that Karl-Anthony Towns got into foul trouble. The Lakers took advantage of the foul trouble with Karl-Anthony Towns as they continue to pound the paint and make the best of the perimeter defense. Anthony Davis finished the first quarter with 17 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists. Anthony Davis was a force tonight, and it seemed like he was able to get to all of his spots with ease. Rudy Gobert did a great job on him with some of the shots that Anthony Davis was making were unreal. When Anthony Davis plays like he did tonight, he’s easily one of the top five or top 10 players in the NBA with no hesitation. The way that Anthony Davis can playoff LeBron and Austin Reaves is impressive and it was a sight to see.

 

Anthony Davis finished the game with 33 points, 17 rebounds, and 8 assists but After the first quarter, the Minnesota Timberwolves were able to make adjustments to slowing down a little bit. In the second half the birthday boy, LeBron James showed up as he was able to get his teammates involved and he was able to penetrate to the basket anytime you wanted tonight. LeBron finished with 26 points but in his eyes, it should’ve been 27 as he had a chance to tie the game up after the Timberwolves were up by seven points with less than a minute ago. The Timberwolves made some mental errors that could’ve cost of the game luckily, LeBron’s shot was called into instead of a three, or we still would’ve been playing in overtime probably right now.

The highlight for the Minnesota Timberwolves tonight was Anthony Edwards, as he’s continue to shine bright like the star he is. Anthony hours finished with 31 points tonight and he was able to put the Timberwolves on his back, making some tough shots in attack in the basket when the team needed points to stick around. This game was neck and neck, but it was a true test for Anthony Edwards as he showed everyone that he’s ready for the clutch moments and he’s ready to take on any challenge in front of him.

Anthony Edwards lead the way, but the Timberwolves wouldn’t be in the wind column without Naz Reid. Tonight Naz Reid was sensational and he picked up the Timberwolves team when Karl-Anthony Towns got into foul trouble. Some of the stuff Naz Reid does in the open court is impressive and unseen from big man in the league. Naz Reid went coast-to-coast tonight on the Lakers, and finished with a euro step flush and it’s stuff like that that makes Mr. Reid special. Both Reid and Edwards put the team on the back tonight as they were able to go pound for pound with the Los Angeles Lakers. This is a true test for the Minnesota Timberwolves to see who exactly they are when it comes to playing high-quality teams.

Up Next Minnesota Timberwolves will be heading to New York to be playing the Knicks in Madison Square Garden. The next just finished the trade today sending Quickley & RJ Barrett to Toronto in exchange for OG Anunoby so the Timberwolves will get the chance to look at the new look Knicks on Monday.
