I really, really hope Leonard Miller pans out.
Average D and hit spot up shots would do wonders for us. Kyle can’t do it. Jaden gives you D but no O.

Rename the thread "Reasons for delusion." I hate Barkley, Stephen Smith and complacent and delusional Wolves fans.

I guess I prefer delusion over giving up before the game is over.

I'm still watching. If you can't win a title, watching a train wreck is the next best thing.
Plus, Wolves played better when nobody believed they could win. When everybody thought the Wolves would or could win, that was the kiss of death! And what's more the Denver nay-sayers gave Denver something to prove! I'm hoping everybody writes off the Wolves and crowns the Denver as champs....

My guess? Masochism.

I mean to me this is the nba finals. No other team has looked close to the level of these two teams boston included. I think wolves result beat
okc, Dallas or Boston. No shame in losing to the nba finals.

My boss is a BC grad and a Celtics fan. So I beat him to the punch last night before he could give me a hard time by telling him about how Denver will go on to sweep both Dallas and New York to repeat as champs.

Haha! I really don't hate anyone here despite what I said earlier. But I am a long suffering Wolf fan like many of you, who loves watching basketball, and I don't have anything better to do with my time like many of you too. I guess after feeling the elation of six wins in a row, then seeing how quickly things turned was demoralizing. Barkley and Stephen A talking up the Wolves got me worried coupled with all the Jordan/Wade talk about Ant, collectively put me in the highly worried camp despite a 2-0 lead. And unlike Ant's humility in the Phoenix series, he seemed to turn from humble to boasting, even trying to one up Jordan by saying he got a three game. Each loss seemed to be met with complacency. I'm thinking where is the urgency? We'll get them next game and Finch failed to make the adjustments. Meanwhile, I've been so impressed with Denver's ability to adjust and Malone's ability to motivate. Finch impressed me first series, but he's really disappointed me this series and I truly question whether he's the right guy to lead this team if we want to move past the second round. The Wolves have to know going into game 6 that it truly is a must win game. I hope that fires them up and they play hungry and angry with a chip on their shoulder. We'll see.

Re: Reasons for wolves optimism
There is always next season and we still have our #1 pick in next month's draft. Maybe we find a Desmond Bane. Ant will be one year older next year, maybe wiser. Although that didn't work in Towns case.
