They’re learning what it takes to beat a champion. Good experience just don’t let go of the rope

Defense has had flashes of being good, but overall it’s been bad. We’re doubling Jokic and he’s killing is with the pass. We either leave Gordon open or inexplicably double him. The only guy making tough shots is Murray.

No excuse to lose our composure like that. Total killer for sure.

We are just not right. This is so out of composure for us. Denver isn't that good...We are just really bad. Kat and Rudy are disasters.

Kat is 1 for 10. Rudy has more turn overs than points. Rudy and Kat are 1 for 11. NAW is 1 of 5 for 2 pts. You can't win like that.


It is worse than that. Denver is shooting over 60%. If you cannot win on the offensive end you must hold your ground on the defensive end. We cannot do either. This is like watching a nightmare only you know you are awake.

they are shooting nearly 65% from floor...has the defense been that terrible ?

To some degree. We cannot defend Joker, they are not missing 3s and we keep giving them easy looks on bad doubles.

I wish that was possible but this is over. We are being out executed with our defence. And offensively everyone are shook ones except Ant.

We can come back. 15 points in the NBA isn't a big deal. Sure wish it was only 7 though.

We're good. I have a personal bias towards people that think the nba is rigged. And I could be wrong. Not trying to ruffle feathers either.

I like the way you think, but....................
Who are you and what did you do with AIJ?

I asked my 6 year old daughter if the Wolves can still comeback and win this and she said yes. I take her word for it

We just hit 3 consecutive 3s. If we had 3 stops the game would be at 6. Instead it is at 12. Cannot trade buckets down double digits. Gotta gets stops.

So bad half. Except ANT all others players su….. Rudy is last year version, Kat one more time in PO…. Mike show his age… Jaden and others young’s are inconsistent….denver much better than us.

We can't get stops? They litterally figured out our defence, Jokic is back to being unstoppable, Murray and everyone else getting any look they want.


It's close to impossible winding this back down when you just trade buckets as best case scenario so far.

Forget Murray or Jokic. Friggin Gordon is 8 of 11, hitting every 3, yeah this is ugly.
