This is what you call Western Conference intensity at its best.

Timberwolves just can’t close against Dallas in the clutch

Timeout to set up a play and ends up with fadeaway slomo shot... Just awful execution

It's crazy that Wolves beat the Nuggets and might get swept by Dallas.

“The other day I saw one of his games. He was running with the ball at a hundred per cent full speed, I don’t know how many touches he took, maybe five or six, but the ball was glued to his foot. It’s practically impossible.”

DAL will win this game. MIN cannot stop the DAL offense at all

There's nothing lowkey about it.
Has it though? They’re -1 in a tied game with him in. Maybe offensively you’re getting better looks, but Mavs are also getting better looks down the other end
The kind of shots Kyrie and Luka have hit would've been there with Gobert on the floor too. Now the lane is at least open for the Wolves on the other end.

That wide open 3 without any drive and kick or anything is embarrassing defense.

Dallas better win this because they don't have a better game in them than what we are seeing tonight. Regression candidates for everyone

Kyle and Naz vs Luka and Kyrie - Who you got?
Naz scares me the most out of any Wolves players. I said that many times now
Only dude that plays hard every game every play - him and Kyle

Low key good coaching move by Kidd. Naz missed his first free throw, call timeout and ice him ever further.

Mahomes rooting for the Mavs is definitely an unfair advantage

I'd be supremely dissapointed as a Wolves fan if they lose this game without Dallas having Lively out there. Their offense is not good. Solely relying on a 22 year old Edwards to create everything is bad offense.
Thats how you get Kyle anderson taking important shots down the stretch.

How about a better replay TNT. Was it a travel?

They've actually made several traveling calls tonight. Never thought I'd see that again
