Wolves literally locked Porter up like the rest of his family

Imagine how happy Embiid would be with an asterisk title… or a Finals appearance…

You are a sad little person.

Jaden McDaniels came into game 6, averaging 7 points. He scored 44 in the last two games.

Yeah that McDaniels thing was unnecessary.

He'd look a lot more like Wade if he could buy a damn FTA. I have seen this guy get raked across the arms on a drive twice in these playoffs to zero whistles. It is nuts.

What an amazing playoff moment.

And right after that terrible inbound turnover.

Well to repeat it takes a pretty dominant team and the Nuggets were never on the level of the dynasties like the Bulls or Warriors.

They have some weak links in MPJ and Murray which they should probably address but I don't know if they risk team chemistry and try to shake it up? MPJ got so many wide looks from 3 and he bricked a ton of them.

Murray had a lot of unfortunate turnovers although I'm not sure how other point guards would fare with the type of defense the Wolves have been playing.

Well I bet the Wolves to win the WCF back after opening playoff weekend... looks like I still can get that bet.

Nuggets folded like a cheap suit.

HOLY ****

I don’t remember ever mentioning the Celtics or anything regarding my team.

When you have any other thing to say about your 35 years of pure comedy and cliching the title “We beat the Nuggets”. Then we talk.

Your team can hold your hat on "we beat a broken Heat, broken Cavs, and Pacers" right?

I mean dude you're just being a hater for no reason.

Bro, do you even know what a hater is? Go google it and come back here with some sanity.

At least DEN got out of the first round.

Who was it that said NBA fixed a Luka-Jokic matchup?

Naw, we don't wanna hear that. His team had a 20-point lead at home and the 3-time MVP is supposed to do whatever it takes to get the dub. He had 32/18/7 but it wasn't enough. He needed to do more.

I still think Celtics are the favorites to win the title.

The Kings probably win it in 2003 but Webber breaks his leg in the playoffs, and is back for 2004 and it goes 7..Webber very emotional at the end of that series, embracing KG. That was like Webber and that King's team last good chance. As a matter of fact, if the KIngs beat them, they might have won it all that year...seems like the Wolves got injured in the WCF vs the Lakers who lost in 5 to the Pistons.

Game 7 vs. Sac was actually my first NBA game I ever attended.

This game 7 rivaled that. Amazing game

Congratulations, TWolves Nation! Hang in there, Denver fans.

Who wins GAME 7 and goes to the WCFs?
