Good thing the Wolves are a 4th quarter team. Bad end to that first half but i think they'll recover in the second half.
If there is no basketball in heaven, i am not going.

Fantastic job by the warriors to do this with Jimmy staying on the bench for so long

Kerr really runs Miami Heat west. He will figure out a way to make a competitive team out of anything.

Allowing 60 points in a half to this version of the Warriors is nonideal for the Wolves. They are getting crushed on the glass and -10 points in the paint.

It's funny how it's swapped in the Playoffs, because the Minnesota Timberwolves were the worst clutch team in the NBA during the regular season.

The Wolves might win this game (and this series), but their effort and focus leaves a lot to be desired. Like they get up 8 points and immediately start celebrating. They don't seem to have any killer instinct and prefer to win dogfight after dogfight. I don't get it.

Don't seem to have killer instinct. For some reason, it feels like they're going through the motions for most of the game.
Interestingly, it's a complete 180 from last year's Western Conference Semifinals, when the team completely wore itself out going into the Western Conference Finals. Part of me wonders if it's subconsciously an effort to not repeat what happened last year.

Jonathan Kuminga, Naji Marshall, Steven Adams, Dennis Schröder, Caris LeVert and Bol Bol would be a championship-calibre starting 5 plus 6th man in this year's playoffs, Fam

Equanimity, peace, harmony and conscientiousness, friends

Dray gets away with so much foul crap i think he'd have to shoot someone to get an instant ejection.
i watched enough Green game to say that. He has done a lot of stupid things but also get ejected a lot by stupid calls
So has everyone else

If Green was officiated fairly he'd have average 1 ejection every 3 games.
The constant screaming at refs faces should be more than enough to warrant techs but Green seemingely never gets one.
Meanwhile Rasheed got ejected for staring at a ref.
Gets ejected for screaming ball dont lie.

Warriors are playing hard. Kuminga is pumping his value up.

This whole series has been regular season basketball.
Such a stark contrast to the knicks-Celtic game.

Kuminga has that lightning first step like Zion who also gives huge problems to the Wolves all the time. They have to pack it in and live with anyone bar Hield taking 3s.

worry about winning the game you're in now.
I think they still should but they need to maintain that intensity and not celebrate till its all over
