Game 1, Round 1 : Minnesota Timberwolves #8 @ Denver Nuggets #1 (0-0)

Post #1 » by **THE J0KER** » Sun Apr 16, 2023 4:56 pm

3 out of 4 playoff series wins under Malone were 4-3 marathons, so let's hope we learned how to make a routine win when you are better than your opponent because we need to be fresh for the next round. Especially important are the opening two games at home, because the Wolves with 4 players who played all-star games in the past 2 years can be extremely dangerous if we lose home-court advantage with an early break.

Only 3 breaks so far today.

What Could Possibly Go Wrong?

Perfect defense, so we have a blowout case after 3 quarters. The only thing I worry about is that apart from our 5+1 lineup the first points scored by a bench player were in the very last minute of the 3rd quarter!?

Rare foul out by Joker, gotta see how the rest of the team handles the last 6mins

Definitely can't play game 2 based upon the results of this game. MINN is still a good team who will try HARD to steal the next one.

Dominant win with great defense. I admit I was kinda nervous before the game but our guys were just brilliant. Of course I don´t expect KAT to shoot so poor again but still I hope we vcan finish this quickly. Than I´ll get banned for writing FU to Mickey8 on GB. (this guy claimed to be a Nuggets fan?)

Btw I was pissed on Slo Mo Anderson but he apologized later to CB, so good for him, let´s forget about that.

We aren't likely to shoot 45% either.

Mickey is a Nuggets fan, he just can't get past the doom and gloom. We used to have a similar board member that got banned from Realgm for trolling other team fans all the time, but he was negative as could be about the Nuggets.

Btw I personally think that Jokic's technical was to send a message to the Twolves that Jokic and the Nuggets don't mind playing rough. It appeared to me that the Twolves backed down after CB couldn't be bullied and especially after that Jokic tech.

Well I am the one who is used to be called negative around here. But not in the league of writing how Finch will overcoach Malone, Wolves in 6, we have no chance etc... Hadn´t looked like he had any possitive feelings about this team.

And I also wouldn´t be surprised if physicallity and bully atempts were the reason DAJ came into the game. I mean nobody will **** with DAJ...
