Denver was trailing like 150 mins of the series against La and they have one of the worst benches in the league after losing Brown and Jeff. They were a much worse team this season relying on Christian Braun, ancient Reggie Jackson and Jrues lil bro as their 6-8 rotation lol


And Porter Jr playing like a scrub didn't help either.

Luka and PJ are probably the two biggest "6'7" guys in the league

I think thats a credit to Wolves defense tho

But Murray was on a bad calf all playoffs and was clearly hurt. He was garbage 90% of the playoffs.
