Best of luck against the Mavs but to create a thread to congrats a team for winning a series is just lame unless it's for winning the championship. Are you going to create one for the Pacers too?

I'm fairly certain AleksandarN is a Nuggets fan, not a Timberwolves fan like you seem to be quick to assume
No real Nuggets fan would ever claimed that the 3x times MVP is not HIM. I think he is really a Minny fan trolling the Nuggets.

OP is a Nuggets fan. Classy post from him.

FWIW, its been a long time since Minny has made the WCF. 2004.
They also just beaten the defending champs in a tuff series, went the whole 7 games.

Had the Knicks beaten the Pacers and advanced to the ECF. There would a few threads as well for that. Its been a long time since the Knicks made the ECF. Back in 2000.
No it's not unless it for winning the Championship but I guess in your world, any team that beats any one and done defending champions, needs to be congratulated Lol

When was the last team that was congratulated for doing that in any sports when it doesn't involved the championship? Should the Mavs be congratulated if they beat the Wolves in the next round since they beaten the defending champions Lol

It's lame and you know it.

See now he is trolling I already addressed that thread in detail which he ignored but he is being intellectually dishonest and wants to derail a thread dedicated to Wolves who played a great series. You need to get a life and stop being jealous just because your 76ers didn’t make it out of the first round. Let Wolves celebrate their hard earned victory. I mean how jealous can you be

No what’s lame is a 76ers fan trolling and taking away a much earned victory for the wolves. How sad is it you can’t let posters enjoy the moment.

All I can say is Anthony Edwards is clearly HIM.

No he’s not the exact same but everything about him is basically MJ with a twist. Whether you’re talking game, electric player with electric charisma, just has that “it” factor. He’s having those “classic” NBA signature moments naturally because he just stands out.

Of course it’s not quite MJ because Jordan still had an edge in efficiency, was a bit more calculated and the slight edge in speed & first step that allowed him to be even more prolific & the defense was slightly ahead buuuut still while Kobe had the game & height, Ant has the stuff MJ was born with ie/ charisma & elite athlete. If Ant can really continue to be driven to be THE best player I’m not sure how phenomenal he could end up being

Crazy thing is all the generational talent is in the West and will have to go through King Kong vs Godzilla rounds for the next decade.

Luka v Ant v Vic is going to be such battle for NBA domination moving forward. Tatum better get these guys RIGHT NOW idk how they’ll fend these guys off for much longer if at all.

Who is this "he" person you are referring to but I will stop posting on this thread for good since I had offended you. I am not fond of needless threads being created like this one where you could have simply posted in the pinned matchup series thread between these two teams like most everyone else would have.

You should indeed stop trolling (“who is this HE you are referring to?”—when you know it’s YOU—that’s called playing DUMB hahahahaha).

Yep, could've just posted in the series forum. But instead tried to create this thread to look classy, and further distancing himself from the Jokic is NOT him thread he created the second after Jokic started to struggle (once he played a good team). The OP slammed people on here all year who dared point out Jokics flaws or questioned his playoff path last year. Gets away with calling people Jealous, pathetic, stupid, sad, etc. This has been one of the biggest meltdowns I can remember from a poster on this board. He's just trying to further the notion that he holds Jokic accountable, when he did much more than that by denouncing him after he lost 2 games (who does that as a diehard Jokic/Denver fan! It's as lame as it gets).

But, to the topic, yes, congrats Minnesota on the WCF birth! Completely necessary thread. I don't understand why nobody created one for Dallas, Indiana and Boston :roll:

Instead of derailing this thread just quote me in the “not him” thread and leave this thread alone. This is about the wolves and not about person agendas or attacking another poster. I do not shy away of what I said so respond in that thread instead of making this about you or your views on me. Quote my posts directly in those threads

That doesn't even make any sense. I'm anything but salty that the Twolves won vs. Denver. You're seeing some salty people that didn't like you and others smuggly insulting them for (rightfully) questioning Jokic all season.

Was 0 surprise to see you start this thread, but I can see right through it. First it was that you started a thread denouncing Jokic to elicit responses from haters haha, and now this trying to look like a class act when you and others were anything but that all season.

But congrats Minnesota, I'm sure they have achieved their dream of making the WCF! Completely thread worthy, it's not like there was a series thread or anything. Youre trying to save face from the meltdown.

I've quoted you in a bunch of threads (like, theyre all right there for everyone to see)and am commenting on how I agree this thread is unnecessary, almost as if it's covering for something else. In fact I quoted you for your "hardenASG13 where you at bro" comment you made after Denver came back just this morning (which was really classy of you, btw). I've yet to see a response.

I have private message you as to what thread. I had over 100 notifications since last night. Again no need to derail this thread to come after me. If you have a complaint of me starting a thread you deemed unnecessary then use the report function and report me to the mods. Giving credit to the Wolves should not have a caveat.

Congrats Minny, well deserved after so many years. I still remember that team with Rubio, Love, Pek... And it makes me smile.

Ant is an exciting player, but I find very forced how he has been pushed as next face of the League. And I only can think of obnoxious reasons for that, not merely basketball related.

He just laid an egg in game 7. I know he is 22, but still. After that, at least don't pretend he was great.
He may look like an idiot and talk like an idiot but don't let that fool you. He really is an idiot.
