Denver “one hit wonder” Nuggets are exposed

Yeah Towns played great. The best player on the court tonight

Ant is a killer but tonight was KAT's game. He was awesome and the reason they won. Solid to great defense, hitting huge shots and owning the mismatches.

KAT gets the game ball

Jadens defense is a big factor but Murray is obviously injured

I mean all you have to do is look at his series stats Vs La last year compared to this year. Night and day against the exact same La roster.
it isn't the same roster

People don't appreciate how big looking Bruce Brown and Jeff Green is, especially with Deandre Jordan and Reggie Jackson getting a year older. Denver has zero depth, it is a serious problem.

Nuggets last season also played a depleted Wolves team, a Suns team that got thrown together at the deadline and a Lakers team that capitalised on a weaker West.

West is built different this season.

Wonder how Gilbert Arenas is coping after blasting Rudy Gobert for missing this game (understandbly) to attend the birth of his child.

What a tool Gil is.

jokeboy86 wrote:Jokic has to get a lot of the blame for tonight. Gobert was out of action and he still insisted on setting everybody up. He should have been in attack mode all night but when they say he’s not a scorer its true. This whole approach of hoping Murray will eventually shoot his way out of a slump during the game seems stupid and foolish


he got shut down by anderson in the first few minutes and then naz reid bullied him ending the quarter. He tried to get going but the wolves packed the paint and he just gave up from them on.

Let's be real, that all us Wolves fans right now :lol:

I don't think there is a real good way to accurately describe what Ant means to the Wolves.

Picture getting blue balled and then teased for 3 decades while getting denied by everyone.

Then out of the blue a 10/10 wants to start getting freaky with you.

That's what it's like

He straight up hasn't had an All-Star teammate. That is nuts.
