[@KNRS927]

The Wolves defense is just something man. Like sure the wolves make it hard to score, but the defense also just gets into the opponent’s head. The opponent just can’t get into any of their sets comfortably and they often have to play out of the set. They also have to resort to screens in the backcourt or offball to get mismatches and even if you do that, a mismatch from McDaniels to Walker or ant or Reid isn’t much better. They know as soon as you let Denver get into their sets/2 man game and get into a rhythm, it’s likely over so don’t let them get into a rhythm or their sets. Thing is, I’d imagine this aggressive pressure defense might be tiring out MN too so I’m curious how long they could sustain it for.

[@aubinaps1427]

NBA refs changed the way they make calls from the regular season to the NBA playoffs. They are allowing much more contact and aggression on the ball, it's exactly what makes the Wolves look unbeatable. They want it more WAY MORE and the reffing is rewarding this attitude. It's pleasant to see and we can tell the Nuggets were not ready for this change. I wonder if Denver will be able to grow enough during the series, it's not a talent issue, it's the will-to-win problem. Jokic seemed a little off in press conference, I'm not sure he has it anymore. However, if for any reason that only the NBA knows, we're back to season regular calls, we can very likely see a comeback.

[@TheodoreDoyola]

twolves actually got Jokic trying

[@WhyYouMadd40]

Y’all anointed the nuggets too early. Y’all was talking bout them like they had 3rings already. Joker was the only the best player in the world for 1yr. Last year, Jamal is not better then no star guard in the league, and everybody else can’t create for themselves on a consistent basis. Y’all overrated them bc they beat the lakers and y’all hate for Lebron. They are just like the Bucks in 2021 all facts

[@ym3_mercenary]

@@MrTenInHell convenient to respond after they tie the series. Lol

[@MrTenInHell]

@@ym3_mercenary Regardless your understanding of the Nuggets ball was negative, the reason why the wolves could sweep and still win was because they could stop all the the Nuggets multiple options, Rudy length to stop lobs to Gordon, timely doubles on post ups, guarding MPJ close, Stiffling the pick n roll with Murray and Jokic, KCP not spacing. The nuggets have the most complex offense in the league built on counters to counters that's why their offensive rating doesn't show how good their offense is. i thought they would sweep or win in 5 after the first game too.
