This is the best quarter our starting 5 has had in the post season, IMO.

Huge 3rd. When we play like this we are tough to beat. play a smart 4th quarter, run the clock. Go Wolves!

Good luck. I live 3 blocks from a Hard Rock Casino. I'm going to see about placing a bet myself.

He said he would call it a game if we finish the 3rd with a 20 point lead. Smoking on that Red Auerbach

I already declared I would call it if we had a 20 point lead entering the 4th.

Do I need to start the Game 5 thread tonight to make sure we get the closeout? About to move to 7-1 in playoff games where I start the game thread, 0-1 when KGdaBom starts it.

Disagree. No one left in the playoffs (maybe Indy?) can bring out this version of the Wolves because no one is as smart as GSW in their coverages and schemes on both ends. Wolves have never been the smartest team and when they cannot rely on pure physicality on both ends they're going to struggle.

They have Denver's number and they'll get up big for OKC.

OKC can do everything that the Warriors are doing defensively with a great deal more physical talent.

If we can get to the next round, whichever team we play, it's gonna be one heckuva series.

They play a lot more 1-1, they don't double as much, they don't play zone as much, they don't have a Draymond to just flip the coverage mid-through the possession and mess Ant up. I agree they have more talent but they don't play defense in a way it messes someone like Ant up.

Also way more predictable offensively, less movement, can get COLD shooting etc.

It'll be a great series but I'd be confident.

Damn it. I can’t argue with that logic. I’m riding with Klomp.

Any others?

39-17 3rd quarter.

Wonderful to watch.

Just play smart the rest of the way and we will win.

Kuminga showing in the 2nd half how he ended up glued to the bench.

I think Finch should have Rudy on the floor here right now to stop any hope of them getting to the rim with easy looks.
