Minny runs a fastbreak and every single player touches the ball.

So pretty

So who here thinks Minnesota can beat OKC? I almost feel like they will be a slight favorite on this board

Minn finished the season strong after a slow start and injuries. FWIW.
They have been healthy now.

They should blow out this shorthanded GSW team.

Almost too boring and just aiming for efficiency and making the right plays. Ant sucks.

I'm as big of a backer of the legend killer as anyone but there was no Steph this series so that pelt remains elusive. As a wolves fan I'm down to count Jimmy twice though.
From a fundamental standpoint it is better for a man to have nothing but be under the protection of Jesus Christ than for him to have everything he could ever want yet be completely without.

Depends. Nickell Alexander-Walker and Donte DiVincenzo have been so up and down in these games. Naz Reid will score, but you can count on like 3-4 bonehead plays to go with however he's scoring. If the bench performs adequately, they could absolutely beat the Thunder. I see that series as a minimum 6 gamer regardless of who wins.
