WCS Game 5: Minnesota at Denver, Tuesday

[KATKlownFeet]

I think we’re already the underdogs, but even if we lose, we still only need to win two in a row.

If we lose, it would be our first three-game losing streak of the season...

"ONLY"??? If we lose tonight it will be three losses in a row and winning the next two the way both teams are playing would be super unlikely.

These damn turnovers man. Just a killer. We need to add better ball handling to this squad.

11 turnovers is way too many. That's the difference so far. Jokic is unstoppable.

Those TOs ANT 1-8 50% from the line and Kyle having the worst game in the history of basketball. How are we within 6?

[Note30]

If your offense is dictated by the performance one guy you're not a good offensive team.

That’s literally all 4 teams left in the West

And I can’t say it enough…

I

HATE

ED MALLOY!!!!

Nuggets have points coming from all over.

Mavs have Kyrie and Doncic. Not just Doncic.

We have.... Ant.

[younggunsmn]

If we sit Anderson and Gobert and spread the floor we might have a chance if we give crazy effort on defense.
The rotations we ran in the first half are going to struggle to hit 90 points if we play them again in the second half.

Kyle Anderson sucks so bad I have no idea what the purpose is in playing him.

Free-flowing play-less offense is complete garbage in the playoffs.
Playoffs are about matchups and exploiting matchups.

We are supposed to be a wolfpack and separate the weak chicken nugget from the herd and go after it.
Put Jokic into a 2 man game and attack him.
Oh wait we can't do that we have Anderson and/or Gobert out there at all times being completely useless.

[Loaf_of_bread]

Anderson is such a scapegoat it is ridiculous. He's played better than several of our players.

Absolutely not. Respectfully, I am absolutely baffled at what you guys are watching if people agree with this. Plus-minus has been horrific the entire series, he is a turnover machine, he nukes Minnesota’s offensive spacing (making it impossible for Edwards to score), he gets killed on switch action, and isn’t doing a particularly good job defensively.

Genuinely baffled that people don’t recognize how brutal he has been.

I see him defending, rebounding and assisting. IMO he's played well tonight. You see it differently.

Lol, played well? And let me guess, the refs have also been atrocious and are rigging.

I miss the days when you used to post about young players. Taught me stuff. Those were good posts.

You can be a jerk if you want. You can mock me if you want. It's not cool, but you be you. I think Kyle has played decent tonight. Not good and not bad. Decent.
PS yes the refs have been atrocious tonight. Not rigging just atrocious the charge block calls that went against us mostly should have been reversed. If you didn't notice that I don't know what to say.

ant is **** up, and Gobert looks **** useless all of a sudden, what has he been doing since that baby was born ?? Damn it

That is a good point. Rudy's game has gone all downhill since the baby was born.

Too many people were hyping up that new papas elevate their game. For Rudy, its been the opposite. Fk Connelly for that dumba$$ trade. Rudy's game is not built for a deep playoff run.

[shrink]

We held them to 50. That’s an acceptable number.

We’ve kept Murray in check.

Ant can explode at any moment.

NAW is playing well.

There are reasons for optimism this game.

Hell yeah.

[KATKlownFeet]

Only down 6 and probably can't play worse

Yes, Wolves can play worse. Did you not watch Game 3?

[younggunsmn]

At least game 6 is at home so if we are going to get eliminated we can take all the chairs out of the tunnels for Ant.

The thing is they can say the same about Ant and Murray in reverse. Let’s just hope Ant gets it together.

Denver is pushing on makes and misses while the wolves aren’t. And when they do they’re out of control unlike normal.

[KATKlownFeet]

Malone is outcoaching Finch.

[KGdaBom]

Nice follow up KAT.

[younggunsmn]

Finch needs to chew them out at half time.

"I gave up my knee for you guys and you repay me with this garbage?"

[younggunsmn]

GO AT JOKIC

EVERY TIME DOWN THE FLOOR

[Worm Guts]

Ant is obviously tired, but he needs to find it if we’re going to have a chance.

[KGdaBom]

I was typing we got the lead, but then we don't. Oh well nice start to the second half anyway.

[Calinks]

KORL!
