We are not wining the series, but I think we will take this game from Denver. If i was the coach, I would put Gobert on Jokic and hope for the best without help, and run the offense heavy through Ant and Kat up high, try to get Jokic to expand energy on that side or get in foul trouble. Role players like NAW should not jack up shots, attack the chest of Jokic. Given the assets spend last summer it is a sorry state of mind to be in, but here we are. Cheers

Rudy has the questionable tag again. I don't think it would be Game 1 bad for him, but we need him closer to Game 2 Rudy in order to have a chance.

Need role guys to be their best selves. Need Rudy to be good. Need Towns to show an actual pulse and be a factor. Need Ant to be superhuman.

I am hoping Finch and company have found a way to help Towns get some offense, he is a shell of his normal self in this series and that will not get it done. Being relegated to a rebounder is not nearly enough. Keep turnovers down, apply pressure to Jokic on defense, hope you can scrape out a home win for the fans.

I think they need to ask Gobert to play the high wall (at least attempt it) and not drop. They have been killing the Wolves from midrange in drop coverage (they've been getting shoot around level shots against it).

Do or die tonight. We will see if kat had it in him tonight or if it’s a preview of the next several years of very good regular season stat stuffer and hides under the bright lights.


I think we win. Honestly if we win and show some sort of way of slowing down Murray I’ll be confident in going back to Denver tied 2-2


If we win and bubble Murray still has a big game, I’m not so confident. That dude needs to be doubled because I don’t think jokers looking to shoot jump shots with his bad wrist

I am thinking along the same line. Let Jokic get his against Gobert 1-1, if all our guys stay home with the 3pt shooters and slow down Murray, we got a shot. With Ant, NAW, and Conley guarding Murray, he shouldn't get 20+ points.

Will be interesting to see how we handle Murray today. Maybe put back NAW as a starter?

JJ Redick has a a hard-on for ANT like the rest of us. I’m looking forward to this broadcast.

NAW is looking like a Jaden-lite. That's awesome if he can continue to grow, we need to keep him.

Ant just missed a block out to allow Porter to get a put back. Little things, means a lot.

Michael Porter Jr. is really good at finishing. Twice h has hit big drives over good walls from Towns and Gobert. Dude can use his length to finish over everyone, thats' a big time skill.

Ant has not been close on these layups. Everything is way too high off the backboard.

What I have seen in the last 3 quarters of this series is encouraging. With some roster moves, Jaden back. I can see how we could start to get a pretty good team together.

You could get a punch in the chest for that comment. Although Kat would just walk away or yell at the refs.
