If Minnesota hits their 3s tonight they'll have a hard time losing.

This is a Jokic game. I’ll be shocked if Denver loses

Just good basketball being played thus far by both teams.

Minnesota has an issue where if the game is called light early, the entire team's energy falls into the dumpster.

It is super frustrating, team totally loses its mojo.

Great start by Ant after not showing up game 3. Now foul #2 though.

The Edwards second foul really brought back memories of JVG. He would’ve hated Ant’s first foul (which was all but intentional)

Congrats to Kevin Harlan. I remember those days when he was Minnesota's PBP guy.

I mean he just ran over Reggie. I take it you're just wanting the game to be officiated like G2 where Minnesota gets to do what they want on defense? Murray picked his 2nd up 5.5 minutes into the game - where was this comment then? :lol:

Most aggressive I have seen him play in the first quarter this playoffs
