I have lost a lot of respect from Murray this series.

What a game and what a series.

The resilience and tenacity of this team is a joy to watch. Winning by 40+ on their home court in an elimination game to then coming back from 20+ in the second half in a game 7. It's been such a wild ride already and we've just reached the WCF.

It feels like this team has that "special" feeling for teams that are about to win it all. I don't want to jump the gun but typically when teams get over that obstacle (team) that they couldn't, it releases that pressure and things just flow after that.

Tonight someone did play Rudy off the court. He was the Denver MVP and the reason we didn’t win by a blowout. He was also huge in game four for Denver, essentially forcing a game 7. His name is Scott Foster, and he wore the Zebra outfit.

I always find it humorous with how we complain about calls but there were a few very obvious miss calls against Wolves last night - 3 quick one in 2nd qtr, Ant's drive and the last one (or 2nd last?) on Gobert.

Can anyone decipher and then tell me what Ant screams after hitting a corner 3-pointer and hugging a fan before the Denver timeout?

I totally get this...HOWEVER

-Defending champs
-3-time MVP
-On the road
-Down 20 in the 3rd

That's a lot to stack on top of the fact it was the same exact moment...Game 7 of the Western Conference Semifinals

We beat them by 45 on our home court. We came back from 20 down on their home court. :D

Best game is not the appropriate word for this. Most significant glorious victory is. I'm with you Klomp. This one is the most significant one.

Why everyone is mad at Jaden after he attempted that last minute dunk? I f*cking love it!

imo Jaden stepping up offensively in last 2 games was the key...it should also calm nerves of some of the Wolves fans who were (myself included) worried about Jaden's contract. His offensive numbers in playoffs have been better than his RS numbers this year and also in 2022.

It is essentially a coin flip, I wouldn’t argue with someone that preferred this win, but I’d also add there’s something special about doing it the first time.

That being said, this game could probably gain added significance if it’s part of a championship run.

Yup. Looks like I was worried for nothing.

It's poor sportsmanship to do what he did. It's kind of like an unwritten rule. But still **** everyone for getting up in arms about it.

That, and I'd hate to start a bench clearing brawl when we're on the brink of moving on to the next round.
