2024 NBA Playoffs: Western Conference Finals: #3 Minnesota Timberwolves vs #5 Dallas Mavericks (DAL leads 3-1)

Luka whining already. Just play man

[CobraCommander]

Jaden McDaniels actually fought through the screen. Edward's did the same. They have to do that.

One of the biggest differences in how OKC guarded Luka. Dort simply would not allow himself to be screened and taken off Luka. Jaden has been too willing to switch.

Luka got magically healthy after the OKC series OR OKC defense made him suck -

[Kalela]

I can't figure out why the Timberwolves have to play two bigs.

[Jasen777]

Lots of physicality on the perimeter.

[Darth Celtic]

Wolves allowed to play really physical on defense yet game still tied

Luka whining already. Just play man

He was raised by a single mother right ?

Rudy great defense on Kyrie on the perimeter but people will still hate on him

Kyrie is 5 games away (including this one )from a championship and people still hate on him

I can't wait to see how Boston will scheme Luka.

This is what i am most interested in before deciding who to back in that series. i don't know how Luka handles or reacts on that one with possibly 3-4 guys getting the assignment he has to be even more versatile as the series goes.

2nd year in a row where both team in each conference were up 3-0 and one ultimately swept.

So no way nba allows back to back sweeps. Expect to see early 00s pacers/pistons defense allowed all game lol.

A combo of both. Luka was complaining his ass off, but that was because OKC made a point to play physical with him. It almost worked too.

Cause the dude is 7'2 and already had 2 turnovers in the paint.

Minny interim coach Micah Nori be like

[AussieCeltic]

Rudy Magic Gobert

[Airmiess]

wow

[durden_tyler]

Okay nice run Wolves. Defense is messing up what the Mavs are trying to run and on offense they have more rhythm than Dallas.

[Doranku]

It's going to be incredibly difficult to beat this Minnesota team with Dwight Powell getting meaningful minutes. This is brutal man.

Luka gonna cry if this continues - he does not like the physical nature of the playoffs lol

Towns should get Luka calls lol

[Airmiess]

Gobert turned into Wemby out of nowhere

[Kalela]

Timberwolves will need a huge lead to put away the Mavericks tonight.

Don’t do it- loose with honor
