This video aged like fine wine. Naz clutching fourth quarter game 7 was great.
Naz Reid is an icon. We’re so lucky to have him. We’ve been lucky to get an amazing core of guys to love and seem to love the fan base back
We are extremely lucky. He said it feels like a home away from home. This team is different
Pieces are falling into place. It is awesome.
Stop your idiotic comments.
He’s gonna be such a problem if he continues to evolve.
He can opt out after next season. If he doesn't, his loyalty is off the charts. 🐺 can pay him big once Rudy's 💰 comes off the 📚 but still so far away. Ant, Jaden, & Naz seem like they made a pact to stay together..
In NAZ we trust
LFG
Dane moore and others have pointed this out, but a huge part of why he is so beloved is that wolves fans always latch on to longshot prospects because when you cant root for wins, you have to find something to root for. None of those guys ever really worked out, so when Naz was the one who finally did, it was a big graduation moment for the franchise and its fans. We have bigger things to root for now.
Naz Reid.
Straight up. I almost put that clip in the video lol. NAZ REID.
@hardwood_yt thanks for the awesome video btw :) always glad to see naz reid propaganda from a fellow ball-knower!
Well, Jaden McDaniels also worked out. Nobody had huge expectations from him. He not only exceeded expectations, he solidified them by being in a starting 5. For example, this year, the Wolves drafted Leonard Miller, and he has a similar build like McDaniels. Can the Wolves make him McDaniels's twin? It's hard to say, so far he's putting good numbers in the G-League with 9 games played, averaging 17.7pts, 6.8rebounds and just over 1 block per game - all that in 30 minutes of play time per game.
McDaniels stands at 88kgs (194lbs) and 206cm (6' 7 1/2 '') and Miller is 95kgs(209lbs) at 208cm (6'8'') . Very similar body types. Miller seems more like Jarred Vanderbilt type of player.
@@Triumphator616who’s that? We call him Leonard Buckets baby🎄🐺🎄🐺🎄💯😂✌️
Also people love rooting for talented big men with finesse that aren't superstars, Andray Blatche for example.
Naz rules man. Been to four Wolves games this season. Nobody gets a bigger ovation than Naz when he checks into the game for the first time. Not even KAT or Ant lol.
LFG baby. Im about to hit up another one here by the end of the year. Been to a couple myself so far
Naz Reid. He’s special. He loves the team and the fans just as much as we love him. Hope he retires a Wolf.
Perfectly put.
I really needed myself some Naz Reid lore atm
Me too that's why I made the video haha
Naz is a major reason why we are 20-5. Major kudos to the T-Wolves organization for re-signing him. I thought for sure we would lose him this year. No disrespect to Towns but Naz is so much more fun to watch
Naz could mess around and take KAT’s spot 👀
Dang those 6th man odds.. whoever bet on that must be smiling now
For those who haven’t attended Target Center, when Naz does anything it is loud and audibly noticeable. You would think Naz is a beloved all star like Anthony Edwards or Kevin Garnet. TC loves NAIZ Reid.
I tried to add in more clips of it, but it just didn't fit too well. But yes, it's something you just gotta experience in person.
Facts! I have season tickets and man the stadium GOES CRAZY when Naz CHECKS IN 😂😂😂😂😂
That Miami game for the home opener was something else. The broadcast couldn't quite capture how DEAFENING the chants of "NAZ REID! NAZ REID! NAZ REID!" were.
Honestly, every sports franchise has that guy, and when they live up to their potential its an amazing thing. In 2022 when the padres' star shortstop got suspended for half the season, we had some relatively unknown korean player sub in for him. Everytime he's up to bat, the entire park is cheering his name. Fast forward about a year and that same unknown Korean player is outplaying guys on contracts that are 1/3 of a billion dollars and making a legit MVP case. It's always special to see an underdog that no analysts or commentators believe in make it big and prove everyone but the loyal fans wrong.
NAZ REID = 6th man of the year
BET THE MORTGAGE.
@@hardwood_ytWE CELEBRATE
@@hardwood_ytW E WOULD BE RICH
He's like the big version of Kyrie lol the wizard of naz
I don’t even think I can call him a 5 anymore 😭
Dudes good but come on that doesn't even make sense.
@@jaymarshall2754 So tell me how a wicked In and Out, and his nasty hesi has NOTHING to do with being a a supersized VERSION of Kyrie? Of course he's not at Kyrie's level, but for his size his movement on his drives show a semblance of a smaller guard with handles. And if you knew anything about basketball regionally, that's pretty on-brand for Big Men coming from the New York/New Jersey area. Look up Tim Thomas from Villanova.
@@kpperry784 I appreciate the history lesson, so maybe comp a big with ball handling capabilities, not arguably the greatest one of all time. It takes away from Reid and Kyrie both.
He could be an all star in the right situation. He’s big enough to play center and quick enough to play PF. Pure Mismatch nightmare.
For real man
Jokic things otherwise LOL.
@@ricardojuanlopeznaranjo6651 Jokic would have his hands full guarding Naz.
@@frostyflakkes2692 Yes 😂. Naz would not. He is not strong or intelligent enough to guard Jokic, so he Will go and guard anyone else.
@@ricardojuanlopeznaranjo6651 Hmmm
It wasn’t because of the joke that Jaden says naz reid, the joke became a thing because of Jaden 😂
Nah you got it backwards. The joke was like 2 years old by the time we learned Jaden was in on it.
that's what I thought. I thought Jaden was the one that exploded it even more, but Timberwolves twitter started it. I could be wrong though.
@hardwood_yt I believe it started on r/timberwolves, but that could also be wrong--surely it was basically simultaneous. Either way, it was a great "he's one of us!" moment when the tweet about Jaden doing it broke!
Big cap right here the Naz Reid memes have been going on since his rookie year
including vando on that gobert trade did wonders for this man
Jaden as well. It was such a brilliant move in hindsight
Naz is honestly a 6 9 forward now. He rarely plays center anymore
He has a great post game when he needs it tho.
@@blakelarson5005 which is he basically only uses after a smaller defender is switched onto him.
I think Dane Moore said on the most recent pod with Kyle that he is no longer calling Naz a big lol
Naz Reid barely being top 10 in 6th man voting 5 months ago to winning it is gold
Naz Reid! 🐺
Two words. Three points
Ive never saw a video age so well in my life 😂.
LOL I gotta rewatch it myself
Naz Reid
NAZ REID.
That field commander picture, though lol
Man I love Naz Reid, as a wolves fan, my favorite is Ant but ever since that game against the warriors (I think) last year where he went off, Naz has been my number 2. In Naz we trust
Facts man. He's got the best attitude and energy
How can you not be a fan of this guy? He went undrafted and worked to get to where he is now and now he is the X factor on the best team in the league. Super awesome
In minny being a good likable dude who does there job with no need for accolades is god tier.
I’ve never seen a bench guy get cheered as much as naz reid and I’m here for it
Watching this after game 7. He was a difference maker to close that game out
Big jelly bout to get dat ring yessuh
Didnt know Naz was from my lovely New Jersey....👍
First time I saw him play he hit a three then ran back on defense and got a block then got a rebound I was like “ I like this dude”
this Video was uploaded and ahead of the Timberwolves bandwagons rn
The velocity in this giant is unparalleled…
Iykyk naz a 🐐🐐 he played with Isaiah briscoe in jersey 🔥🔥
He's good at his job and doesn't complain.
he's the best
Thank you for the exposure to the amazing awesomeness of the goat the king the big jelly. 🙏
Naz Reid!Naz Reid!Naz Reid! Big jelly
NAZ REID
Naz Reid.
Naz Reid
I think my parents would be happier if Naz was the father of my children. WE'RE COMIN!!
LMAO. Come onnnn
The only jelly 🍇 fam member to make it naz helped the wolves become contenders
he reminds me of young Sheed
Naz reid has always had the tools to be great. With KAT gone he’s been stepping up if he keeps goin that spot is his
he's averaging like 22 i think with him out?
Yay a naz reid post im a wolves fan and we love him!
Naz Reid might be my favorite player after watching this video
Naz Reid.
NAZ REID.
Naz reid my boy
The greatest to every do it
I'm probably late af but 0:37 marvin bagley sighting? Anyways, NAZ REID!
Naz Reid ❤
He from where I grew up in jersey ✊🏼 he deff putting on for us
Ayeee that’s hype!! Let’s go
Awesome to hear these kinds of stories
Yessir. It’s a great one
undrafted boy just dominated the defending champs
We love naz ried bacome a super star in the twolves
You can’t not love this man
agreed
Yea his defense crazy this season😊
Naz reid must be protected at all times! As a real wiccan who does white magic the protective kind you bet im using the spirit community to protect him
Hes on my fantasy squad. Picked him, dropped him, then picked him back up. He's good
6 man of the year
This dude is nice but it’s crazy how everything came together for the wolves cause they really lucked out with a lot of guys , mcdaniels , NAW , and then having an undrafted guy become 6th man of the year , a lot of people won’t understand how crazy that is . But I think he signed a smart deal because if the wolves don’t capitalize on the extremely short window available to them in the next year or two then if I were naz I would look to start elsewhere . The love won’t be the same anywhere else but you have to sacrifice certain things for that kind of money
Naz Reid reminds me of Kevin Looney in the sense that they've looked like seasoned vets for what seems like years, but they are surprisingly young
Big Jelly 🍇
Wizard of Naz 🪄
noticed him from day dot, amazing player
I just thought about it. He might've been one of the guys on the second team with Jimmie Butler at his first "practice"😅
Naz Reid!
Naz Reid.
naz reid
Naz needs to be in the 3 point contest
please.
naz reiddd
Naz Reid= New Shawn Kemp
My son came home and told me his teacher asked which person he would want to be in the world. He said NAZ REID
Naz reid.
I REMEMBER I U SED TOO WALK HIM TO FOOTBALL PRACTICE BACK IN TUE EARLY 2000'S
Been like that since high school
Bro legit looked 40 in high school lmfao
6TH MAN OF YHE YEAR LETS GOOOOOOO
AYEEEEE COME ON
big jelly supremacy
Hoping he get that big ben impact for the Wolves...n pls check out kenny lofton he'll be a big help....
Been said he has game since i saw him his rookie season
im convinced Naz can play the 3 n let rudy n kat have the 4&5 lol
Naz for Prez!
He could literally play any sport
they slept on bro... he was nice at LSU
Yes he was. He just didn’t fully materialize in that season into what was projected. It all worked out in the end
Naz is the truth
haven't figured him out on 2k, he seems slow in the game, but will try again
I thought that was Burna Boy lol
Naz Reid is a guard inside of a power forwards body
He played the exact same way in high school.
Finally. He's so much fun to watch. NAAAAAAAAZZZZZ REEEEEIIIIDDD
Yessir!!!!! NAZ REID.
I THOUGHT THIS NEIGHBOR WAS BOUT 35... sheesh. That boy solid.
lmao 24 years young baby
Naz Reid is a PF now. Played the 3 at times this season.
NAZ REID 2 Words 6th man !!
two words. three points
2 words: Naz Reid
NAZ REID.
"No specific plays for him." So naz and kyrie are one of the few people in nba who play like 5s at a park or a gym yall just running and doing whatever comes to mind.
bro dominated mvp jokic
How do you go from shooting 67% to 92% from the line? I'm pretty sure in the history of the world that has never happened before.
I have zero clue except for one reason...NAZ REID.
Naz "Naz Reid" Reid
icon is such an insane rhetorical stretch. when they get a nationally televised game, however, i will watch him.
Naz is actually a stretch four now, he never plays 5 anymore. He is a big wing essentially. He has lost so much weight, he is not a center anymore. He can do everything a wing can, but he can’t hold a big center down like KAT or Rudy…
The Wizard of Naz
AYEEEE
This guy fits the warriors system good. Size, outside range, defend. No issues like Draymond Green. Reid for Green straight up trade.
We should make a religion worshiping Reid
lmfaoooo
Big jellyyyy
big jelly jel
He kinda has that Kevin Garnett energy
I remember watching him back in 2020/21 when he actually got some play time. He looked pretty good, like actually better than KAT at times. The only difference was draft capital and of course athleticism/size between the 2. Naz is one of the best bench Bigs in the league that honestly can possibly start for other teams. He’s that skilled!
Just glad my team is finally coming together. Barring injuries and hoping offense keeps improving this Timberwolves team is strong and deep as a whole.
