Nuggets/Wolves will be an incredible series. They match up better with Denver than anyone else does.
I said so before the playoffs, Wolves are the only team that can beat Denver in the West and I even think they're slight favorites. the Nuggets don't really have a big men rotation, DAJ is ancient and cooked, Nnaji is worthless (and doesn't have the size to battle actual 7 footers anyway) and AG as small ball Center can work in a pinch against some teams but not against the Wolves
it's not just Gobert\KAT and Naz, Mcdaniels is also 7 feet tall. the Nuggets have one legit Center in Jokic and that's it. every game that Jokic is in foul trouble is basically a loss and it'd be very hard for him to defend ANT inside + the bigs without fouling, so he'll be forced to concede baskets and hope to make up for it at the other end
that works against the rest of the league but Minny's defense is too good (best in the league) and it's hard to really put points on their head, even if u are the offensively oiled machine that is the Denver Nuggets
this is the real WCF, between the two best teams in the West and whoever wins the series will go to the finals
