The overall decomposition of how the reffing will affect this game is sickening. Just **** stick to fundamentals, and we got this.

In just over 2 hours there will be either elation and jubilation or gloom and despair. A few will declare a moral victory and be somewhere in-between but for me it's all or nothing.

On this most holy of Timberwolves anniversaries, please universe let us play well, avoid foul trouble, and let a hungry pack eat some Nuggets, a mile above sea level!

It really is incredible that today's game 7 happens on the same date of the year as our last one and just happens to fall on KG's Birthday. You can't make this $hit up.

I haven't been on much lately (just had our baby boy. Well I didn't, the Mrs did but I was in the room ha ha) but have been on the ride the whole way either watching games or replays in the quiet moments - So proud of this team - To take the champs to a game 7 in the second round is an amazing feat and I cannot wait for the boys to get out there and take care of business today - I honestly believe we have the team to go all the way - THIS TEAM WILL BE CHAMPS!

I wish Towns would get deeper position in the post on those post-ups before catching the ball. He's always way far from the basket.

Yep. It all comes down to taking care of business today.

Not 100% sure, but when Ant picked up Jaden it looked like he gave him a peck on the neck. If true that is a serious sign of brotherhood for the 2020 draft picks.

I wish Karl would space out further from Ant. This will force them to spread wider and give Mike more open 3s. Especially from the corners.

Nobody is scoring. We actually held them to 5 points for almost 8 minutes. Unbelievable.

After 10 minutes only 3 fouls have been called. WOW.

Naw plays hard but he doesn't have the length that jaden does. I'd stick him in murray the whole game

Horrible finish to the quarter. We did NOT take care of business after getting the early lead. Now have to beat them by 6 or more the rest of the way.

Started strong but intensity definitely fell off - Need a good Q2 and go into half with a lead - I have faith ;)

If naw doesn't have it you can't play it. Can't waste possessions
