Naz has been great but he isn't Towns, he's not a starting all-star center. It's really tough to play against this Denver team and Jokic, can't dump on him for having a bad game. Dude has played above and beyond his expectations this season. Denver has just turned on the championship switch and ran away with it. They are on that elite tier of execution, there are levels to this.

It's tough to fly in last night and play the next day. You can see Wolves are out of gas.

Inexperience definitely bit us in the ass this game, but we’re a better team with KAT. Morris needs to step up though

Karl is more consistent. Naz can get hot and light it up. But he can also disappear, or worse anchor it down. He is also not big enough or strong enough to guard Joker. We need more from Jaden, Kyle, NAW, and the JMAC/Morris half rotations. Ant also really disappeared in the 2nd half. It is the difference between an All NBA and former MVP Jokic and the 22 year old Ant.

This bs Finch does of sitting Ant to start the fourth needs to stop asap. Wolves lost all momentum.

You should try to fly into Denver and run around for an hour. It's a really advantage for the home team

Ant played the full 1st and 3rd. You really want him playing 42 minutes on a back to back? Not to mention the elevation and his nagging injuries. Ant wasn’t even useful in the 3rd. He quit and the usual suspects **** the bed.

I hear you, but disagree. That style of play is not naz.

He'd find something to complain about. All he does is complain. He rarely adds anything of substance.

Watson really had a good game. I didn’t think he had that next level defense yet.

We desperately need NAZ coming off the bench against their lesser players. You need a strong bench to win championships.

Naz shot 6 or 19 for 13 points. His shot selection was bad, his defense was sloppy, and he never should have been guarding Joker. Naz had his 2nd awful game in 7 days and we lost both.

Nobody has to ask me. I'll take a lesson from your playbook.... You suck man! Seriously, that's all I get from your comments.
