Win or lose this series, ANT will lead the Wolves to the Promised Land in the near future.

Not looking like we're going to get it done especially where we are at with foul trouble but at least we made it a game.

trade towns. Jaden will be a better Pippen to ants Jordan than KAT will ever be. Now if only we could get a Kerr or Paxton, hmmm maybe KAT is a dumber Toni?

Thank goodness TNT don’t air “Dr. Pimple Popper” commercials anymore.

Murray is really the GOAT.

There was no chance we were going to put together back to back dominant quarters. It's just not this team.

Murray taking over and Wolves can't play the defense they want due to fouls (some of which are questionable)

Jokic masterclass. Murray is eating, but Jokic is the main attention here.

Not when you come out playing post up KAT at the 3.

We did it all season we did it tonight, and I know Ant can’t keep up the cutting and running possession after possession, but he had the gravity and we go away from it. He really needs to master that post up he made.

Wolves made a respectable comeback but The Nuggets are showing why they are a 1 seed. Just insane shot making down the stretch.

The Nuggets are so well-oiled. Big respect. They are so damn collected. I'm really happy we have found some success tonight though, hope they can build off of this.

You’re telling me 10pts isn’t enough from a max player known ONLY for his offense???

Jaden probably could have made some difference today on defensive end

Really good to see Ant explode. Murray was just too big tonight though and KAT was not nearly good enough. We have seen some success though, maybe we can put it together for game 3 and get a win at home. Can't get down 20 points out of the gate.

I so loved Murray in that draft. He was right there for the taking. Thibs :crazy:

Fitting way to end. Turn over.
