[@ryanstewart7217]

As a Celtics fan, I highly disagree with the Chris Finch take. This coach has led a team with a 22 yr old star to challenge the defending champs. He’s the right guy for the job, give it some time.

[@elmehdinafia1237]

Wolves 2 All-stars, 6th man of the year, defensive player of the year and best defense in the NBA! Ant is carrying no one. They're just that good of a team! Denver on the other hand, murray and MPJ have been abysmal throughout this series so I don't even know how they made it a 7 game series in the first place. Gordon and jokic are the only 2 guys who are playing at their level offensively in Denver starting 5.

[@laredolassoo]

Its hilarious that KAT's temperament gets brought up in this series when the Nuggets, right down to Malone, have entirely lost their shit at the slightest adversity.

[@SeanT777]

They always hate on the small market teams. I’m a Minnesotan trust me.

This series proves that NOBODY knows what they’re talking about. Everyone is just guessing

[@spencerantoniomarlen-starr3069]

That's always been true. It's just more true for this series.

[@circaen]

I think it proves that the NBA is capable of pushing series the way they want depending on how it's officiated. One team is always going to benefit more from it being more or less physical.

[@dogdogthecat3129]

[@Mike_Viola]

This is one of the best series i can remember. 70 points in Game 6 !?!! Unreal

[@slow_Jo]

I like what Jaden McDaniels was saying in one of his postgame interviews...the Wolves just need to stay even keel through Denver runs. They know Denver will make runs and they have to not panic and get off their game plan and continue to execute and play physical. NAZ is also due for a huge 25+ point game, hitting 5 threes, and a few highlight dunks.

[@jjmcg9688]

KAT is tough. Nice guy off the court, has had some tragedy multiple times. The stray voltage moments and emotional immaturity is tough. But if he can play within himself he unlocks Rudy on both sides and is the counter to trapping ANT. Scary to depend on him but we do.

[@richi1235]

'Yeah but the Mavs are only up because their players played well and OKCs didn't' 😂😂 Guys, do you hear yourself talk? Players playing better than the other teams is in fact what winning a series is 😅 Jesus christ man

[@theSUBVERSIVE]

Yeah, no team has held OKC to such a low scoring number in the playoffs OR regular season, the whole year, and all of a sudden Mavs won because OKC missed 3s? One of the biggest differences is that SGA can't playmake and create open looks the same way Luka does. Individually SGA has been awesome but Luka elevates the team's floor. Why is that role players have career year with Luka? DFA, Bullock and Dinwiddie were key for the Mavs WCF run and since the trades nobody talk about them. Why is it that DJJ, PJ, Gafford and Lively are making such an impact? Would they play the same with SGA? Would Chet, JDub and others play better if they play with Luka? There is a reason Mavs' role players are playing better than OKC's and having a bigger impact.

[@DunningKrugerJnr]

That’s how’s American pundits describe success by white European stars: Gobert played D, OKC missed shots etc

[@th2273]

Rob looking like a hallmark Dad with that hair! Wow

[@markkuzia6633]

I was just commenting, and Mahoney made the correct point. Towns can play Jokic reasonably well on defense, much better than Gobert. How quick Towns picks up fouls determines how much of a chance the Twolves have in the game.

[@aytoozee6759]

True. That’s why (unfortunately) the reffing is a huge factor

[@realone296]

No, he can't...Jokic knows that Gobert is helping thats why he is less efficient vs Towns...if it's straight up 1 on1 Jokic cooks everybody.

[@markkuzia6633]

@@realone296 Jokic does cook everybody, however, he cooks Gobert better, faster, stronger because Rudy doesn't have the leg strength to contest his post moves. KAT has a stronger lower body base and offers some resistance which makes Joker earn it or holds strong enough for Minny to double. Gobert is too tall and gangly to play Joker in the post. I'll contend that Denver's primary offensive scheme will attempt to get KAT in foul trouble this weekend.

Nuggets fan but 50 year hard core and knowledgeable NBA fan that's lived in many NBA cities. This is the craziest series I've ever seen by far. I don't even understand what's happening. Wild largely inexplicable swings. I get that the current NBA lends itself to dramatic variation based outcomes because of the 3 but that was beyond. I will say that was the single most disgraceful and gutless performance by a defending championship team in a close out game on the road I've ever seen or know about. I'm guessing the facts will back that up. Here's my prediction given how insane this series has been. Nuggets blow out the Wolves in game 7 by 60

And then the Cavs are heavy favorites and he loses to a magic team with 1 all star (and no top 75 player). Jameer Nelson (the other all star) missed the entire series. Look at Tatum right now. Should Tatum be considered a goat too?

[@jjmcg9688]

MN fan here, but the key to beating MN is to get them emotional. MN turns it over. In regular season they were the 17th offense but the 4th if they had average turnovers. If Den can get the wolves to turn it over they win. Look at the 9-2 run at the beginning. But when MN is taking care of the ball it is a toss up. This series has outliers, AG had his best shooting games while KAT had his worse. MN bench did terrible when Den bench did great. Those 4 things going to average balance things out.
