At the point of attack, he has that kind of potential. Lock down D.

lol inevitably we get this loser stuff

I mean, guarding him physically with some hard fouls sprinkled in isn't the worst idea. If hes gonna push off and do his foul baiting shenanigans might as well make things tough for him.

Anyone with a brain knew how this series would go. Wolves beat a pathetic Lakers team and a Curryless Warriors team. And we saw how many bonehead mistakes they would make in those series. We saw how ice cold shooting they could have. They’re a very up and down team.

Personally not a fan of downplaying another's road through the playoffs everytime they get outmatched by a difficult opponent. OKC is just really that good

Audio is bad.
E$PN needs to fix it.

OKC was always gonna cause turnover issues with the decline of Conley and the lack of a true backup PG. It's up to Minnesota to find a way to mitigate that advantage somewhere

a lot of hot takes here when we've played less than 10 minutes of basketball!

These refs continue to be awful

The first one was off Chet. I think I missed the second one.

Yeah, this isn't loser talk. Make your fouls count.

We're gonna see a ton of interesting lineups/matchups in this series. Both teams are deep and versatile.

As one of the elite defensive teams left, that's how they will mitigate those turnovers

Wolves are only down 9 in that category now!

The MVP hasn’t even entered the game. Minnesota should be scared.
