Nuggets need to give Jokic some help. Sad to watch.

Denver needs to find an actual big that can give minutes next to Joker. He's gassed and powerless on the glass right now

Minnesota’s 2nd half defense has been amazing

On a positive note, Denver being out of the playoffs and it being Minny vs Dallas means no more 10:30 tip offs.

Kat’s the only reason the Nuggets didn’t run away with this in the first. Don’t do him like that.


Exactly. Kat has been phenomenal this game as has Rudy.

Naz just had a great 5 min stretch.

It's not over yet, but all the momentum is on the Wolves' side. It would take a herculean effort to come back.

Legendary choke up. Couldn’t have happened to a more unlikeable team.

MPJ's contract looking more and more awful. Dude is so one dimensional, if he can't score he is worthless out there.

Game is not over yet but I have to say Murray hasn't responded well to being defended more closely.

I thought the game was over based on how bad the 1st half looked for MIN. I'm sorry Ant-man, I was not familiar with your game.

Minny has been by far the most impressive team. Not sure how the Mavs can deal with their size
