A win tonight will make the Atl game a little easier to swallow...

So he didn't say out loud the second part - " But there is no way in hell we lose the series to the misfit Wolves".

What keeps us from having a shot is our mental game. We are so terrible when it comes to poise and BBIQ. Way too many mental mistakes. Denver was damn near flawless in their playoff run, those guys were on the ball at all times.

We are having KAT guard Jokic again which actually wasn't terrible in the playoffs.

I just heard on Wolves pre-game that the coaches said they had plenty to be blamed for in that loss.

I'm impressed that they took responsibility publicly.

Defense has looked incredible. Offense has not been great when we are trying to make a shot, lots of mid range contested looks but the defense has definitely helped fuel the offense.

Oddly, KAT's defense has been more impressive than his offense this season.

I feel like you have to challenge that foul on Towns. Even if you lose, I think you have to support your star there.

Awful officiating to start the game. Just awful.

The one call on Towns after all those contract before the foul and the no call on Joker on Gobert? I don't know how you can miss that?

Wolves have to play the matchups better
Naz has huge advantage while KAT is forcing tough shots against a good defender

Again, KAT worried about the call, forget it, the refs hate you. Got to move on. Stop begging and hoping, get up and play. Just needs to accept he's getting screwd on some calls. Arguing just hurts, doesn't help.
