The Timberwolves are yet to lose a single game in these playoffs, and they look every bit like the current title favorites against an outmanned defending champion Nuggets squad.

Scoring 50 in the allstar game is not a flex. “Can you make 25 uncontested shots while everyone else in the game watches?” Not dogging on KAT but the allstar game is such a joke nowadays that your stats in it should not be used for credibility.

That's how this channel works my guy, cherry-picking facts or taking them out of context to push certain narratives. Back in February he wouldn't stop making videos about the "disgusting and embarrassing" all-star game and he was talking shit about the fact that KAT came from the bench to score 50 because nobody was playing defense. Now KAT scoring 50 in the all-star game is some kind of great accomplishment that proves what a powerful team the Wolves are.

He is NOT unguardable. Sometimes you need to be able to go and get FORTY in a game. Jokic has to step up vs Minnesota. No excuses. He's not a good enough pure scorer despite all the gaudy stats. My litmus test is: can you CONSISTENTLY beat your man straight up that you command double teams? Jokic is GREAT but I lets pump the brakes on him being top 10 all time or best offensive player ever (nonsense). He's great for THIS WEAK ERA, but he has to show us more in terms of championships before im convinced he's even as good as Hakeem (i dont think so, not yet). Minnesota is targeting him on defense too. Guys who can score at will, AND are apex defenders, to me, will always be above guys like Jokic who only really add surplus value on offense. Minnesota is SHOWING: defense really does win championships. If Jokic gets swept - and i think its a real possibility - it makes the Lakers look like even bigger frauds and it also makes all those advanced analytics and stats seem IRRELEVANT. Who cares who's first in PER, Ant Edwards looks like the most unstoppable player on the court, either team. Stats are for losers: did you win or did you lose? I also LOVE this because Jokic has WAY better consistent advanced analytics numbers than Lebron (Lebron NEVER led the NBA in PER for 4 straight seasons like Jokic just did), so we can credibly argue Jokic > Lebron on PURE STATS (which i love because Bronsexuals love using stats to prop their PED-injecting fraud).

Jokic hasn't quite been himself this postseason. The Nuggets themselves feel sluggish and off their game. That being said, a near 28-point triple -double from Jokic being seen as him underperforming speaks to the level of play he's at.

Yeaaah, Jokic's 6 game playoff averages to this point are: 28.8 points, 14.8 rebounds and 9.7 assists on 56% shooting. All of those numbers are an improvement over last season's run, except he is scoring 1.2 points less currently. The MAJOR difference is Murray. Last year, he shot 47% from the field and 40% from 3 in the playoffs. He is at 40% and 31% currently. Just not good enough. The nuggets right now are sporting a +0.7 point per game differential in these playoffs. They just need him to be a little better on BOTH sides.

As I’ve said on this channel multiple times the nuggets let key rotational depth go in the offseason and I knew it was gonna come back to bit them in the playoffs especially being that some of the key guys aren’t healthy makes it an even more glaring issue

The Wolves are scary indeed, to a large extent because they showed consistency throughout the seasons and did well against top teams. With this said, I expect Nuggets to adjust and make this very tough for the Wolves. Let's see what happens in game two. May the best team win!

Worst part for Denver is, if Jamal can't initiate any offense whatsoever (especially after last night making him under 38% from the field) and Tims blanket Joker, then they've got no one that can put the ball on the ground. It'll be over.

If the Wolves can wear out Jokic we can win. Just keep pressuring him and cover the perimeter shooters we got this! Either way I'm glad all those other "super-teams" are done. I hate that soft style of basketball and LeBum can't retire and go away soon enough! Love the videos Skap!

​@@yiannisschmalz6574I saw Jokic do whatever he wanted against Rudy Gobert and KAT. Only guy to slow him down was Naz Reid. That being said backcourt defense was tight. Conley and ANT are nice. I still have Wolves winning for the exact reason stated by Skap. Murray is not 100% and KCP supposedly got injured in game 4 vs Lakers. But he might have just done it as a favor to LeBron and Klutch sports since he would have gotten swept twice by Nuggets. Honestly as a Lakers fan, it is hard having LeBron here. Counting the days I hope to hear that the Lakers are rebuilding which is why they dismissed the complete coaching staff and Darvin Ham. LeBron is tainting the Lakers aura.

It's comforting to know that we won't be seeing Jokic whine or complain or blaming the refs. True superstar. Oh, and the Wolves are this year's version of the '04 Pistons. When people realize, they'll be gentleman sweeping the media favorites in the finals. Then Adam Silver will be mad because "they play too much defense!"

Couldn't agree more. I felt that way at the start of the playoffs. BUT, at that time, I was envisioning a healthy Jamal Murray, and thought the Nuggets would win this series. At this point, I think I am flip flopping that pick. I just don't see anyway Murray gets healthy the rest of the way.

On a side note, this reminds me of just how difficult it is to do a championship repeat. as you can see over the years now with denver, bucks, gsw etc.. As soon as one team builds a championship winning team, somewhere out there an NBA team is being built to compete /counter specifically with that championship team so much so, that champion teams have a very narrow window of opportunity to even repeat say 1-2 years after 1st champion.... my point? now imagine doing it back to back to back, and retire for 2 years, and with minimal retooling, do it again back to back to back. Damnnn... just makes you appreciate the real GOAT and the worthy other greats.
