Good work by Minny. They played hard.

Ant finally had his "omg, that was ugly" game, but still found ways to contribute and the defense was incredible. This was big. I think it's probably also going to be big for Edwards in terms of understanding playoff basketball, in a positive way.

Well-earned victory. Enjoy the WCFs.

Nah, he ain't about that. It's all about preventing Embiid from taking individual awards like 1st team All-NBA or MVP. KAT (or anyone else) are free to win as many conference finals or championships as they please. No beef there.

Props to the T-Wolves FO for building a good team. I was wrong about Gobert being a bad fit with Kat

T-Wolves are perfect proof of how important having good role players are, they have 2x better role players than the Nuggets.

Nuggets is such a top heavy team in comparison even losing Brown who is not that good was a huge blow and they didn't replace him.

Best of luck against the Mavs but to create a thread to congrats a team for winning a series is just lame unless it's for winning the championship. Are you going to create one for the Pacers too?


They knocked off the champs and we’re the Wolves.

Kind of unusual.

I'm fairly certain AleksandarN is a Nuggets fan, not a Timberwolves fan like you seem to be quick to assume

I honestly can't believe its 2024 and we are saying KAT saved a playoff series and his team advanced to the WCF.

Yessir, the guard is changing QUICK. But ANT has a damn police escort to his way as the face of the league. I don't know if there's been a combination of a player this electric & dynamic on court and a great personality off court.

I remember a few weeks ago out of curiosity I pulled up the 2017 All-NBA team, everybody else outside of KAT everybody else was gone.

Ant has earned that "police escort" through his hard work.

He's passed multiple guys along the way, partially due to good luck with injuries/off-court issues (Morant, Williamson, etc.) but also his play and his personality has vaulted him up to be equal with guys 4-5 years older than him (Tatum, Doncic, Young, etc).

Congrats wolves. I was supporting denver because joker is my favorite player, but ant is my favorite u25 player. So I am not very sad. Wish you a championship out of remaining contenders.

I did say I’d rather discuss it in pm though I just didn’t know where to go about it or who to pm that’s why.

Board mods are listed at the top of the forum under the words "General Board" next to "Moderators."

When you click the profile of a moderator (or user), you have a button to send personal messages.

Feedback on your topics:

"5 different mods have left comments on their profile complaining about their thread quality, and despite warnings, they've failed to improve."

" He's making more threads than his number of regular comments. A lot of it doesn't need to be posted at all, and much of it could just be a comment in the "General Season Discussion" thread. Dude seems to think every passing thought that pops in his head needs to be a thread and it's way overboard."

You should be aware of this. If you weren't... now you are.

Let a couple of months or three pass, then write Howard Mass by clicking here (direct link to PM that you can find on any user profile). Explain why the Thread Starting ability should be reinstated and mods will vote on it.

In the meantime, let's not derail topic further, you can send a personal message to any mod and ask questions.

I owe an apology to this guy because I keep predicting that he would make stupid mistakes esp in the critical 4th quarter.
It turned out that it was a stroke of GENIUS to commit his 5th foul to force Nori to pull him out and release that BEAST Reid with those nasty put back dunk, a crucial lay up and a huge block on Jokic etc. :wink:

OP is a Nuggets fan. Classy post from him.

FWIW, its been a long time since Minny has made the WCF. 2004.
They also just beaten the defending champs in a tuff series, went the whole 7 games.

Had the Knicks beaten the Pacers and advanced to the ECF. There would a few threads as well for that. Its been a long time since the Knicks made the ECF. Back in 2000.
