    Nah. KAT almost threw the game with turnover at the inbound when he should have called a timeout and also got a couple of stupid fouls to get 5 and sat out the game. Luckily, Reid came up huge and stopped Jokic enough to take the game and also scored some huge baskets in the 4th. Its the Reid game if anything but tbh, its a huge defensive team effort that won the game.

    I wonder if Draymond still gonna be hating on Gobert. He been hating hard all week while he was on TNT Inside the NBA. He was taking shots at Nurkic & Gobert all week last week. This is why most of these current players don't make great analyst, they're too emotionally attached right now. So they're either too bias & show too much favoritism towards players they're friends with, or be hating extra hard towards players they dislike.

    Jokic and Murray combined for 69 points, rest of Nuggets scored 21. T-Wolves top two scorers (McDaniels and Towns) combined for 46, rest of team scored 52, including the bench that outscored Denver's bench 13 to 5. Antman had an off night offensively but still played great defense and was clutch when needed, but it was a total team victory to hang tough and come back in a game 7 road game against the defending champs. I'm not partial to either of these teams (Spurs fan), I just like excellent basketball, and Minnesota earned this one as a team.

    Wolves coach need to play Golbert big minutes. When they get the idea of dropping Golbert to “focus on offense” they lose. They are not even a good offensive team but their defense is No.1. They win games by clamping their opponents to win on low scoring games. They should let Gilbert stay on the court as long as possible

    The Timberwolves did not beat the Nuggets. It was the latter coach who failed his team. The Nuggets were beating the wolves with 20 points. Then the wolves double and triple teamed Murray and Jokic, they both could not deliver in the third set and missed a lot and a lot. The coach should have at that time given instructions that the focus would switch to the other Nugget players, who are equally competent.

    I am so sick of Draymond Green, it ain't even funny. He makes me sick to my freaking stomach. Green hated on Kevin Durant when HE(Green) was the one that was jealous and in the wrong. He hated on Durant BECAUSE he didn't want the Warriors giving Durant a huge contract when his(Green's) contract was coming up. AND Durant was fast becoming one of the trio. Which means it was becoming less and less, Steph, Klay and Dray and more Steph, Klay and Kevin. Green hated (STILL hating on) Jordan Poole when HE(Green) was the one who was jealous and in the wrong. Because again, Green was jealous of Poole's big contract. Green was jealous of the Warriors organization "referring" to Poole as "the FUTURE of the Warriors". And again Poole was getting VERY close to infiltrating that Steph, Klay and Dray trio. Because the fans loved Jordan Poole. Green is hating on Rudy Gobert when HE (Green) is the one jealous and in the wrong. BECAUSE, Gobert was shown SO much support when Draymond Green, choked him and tried to kill him. AND BECAUSE Gobert has won the DPOY award many more times than useless Draymond Green. AND because Gobert said last season that Draymond Green "don't want to play, if Steph Curry is not playing". And Rudy was right and Draymond knows it. Because Rudy figured out, like I have, that Draymond Green's Skill Set is "useless" without Steph Curry. being the "recipient". Draymond Green has gotten SO bad he doesn't even want to be on the court if Steph Curry is not on the court. If Steph is sitting, Draymond Green wants to be sitting too. BECAUSE Draymond Green knows he will be exposed, if he played TOO long WITHOUT Steph Curry. Draymond Green's "usefulness" is SO dependent on Steph Curry, it is IMPOSSIBLE for Draymond Green to go to another team. I am just waiting for somebody, ANYBODY, to put Draymond Green in his place. Green signing with Klutch Sports and LeBron James HAS apparently means NOW "his 💩 don't stink, ANYMORE". Before Draymond Green joined LeBron James and Klutch Sports, he was "donkey this and donkey that, and useless, can't score" loser. Green was SO disliked Charles Barkley use to say on several occasions how he wanted to punch Draymond Green. But, since Green joined LeBron James and Klutch Sports, he not only is a sports media "darling" NOW, and people are tripping over THEMSELVES to get his "input" AND HE(Green) even NOW shares the Inside the NBA panel WITH the man (Charles Barkley) who repeatedly said he didn't like Draymond Green and wanted to punch him. 🤔 That is some strong dark magic LeBron James has "shared" with Draymond Green.
