Has any team been the darling and villain of the league at the same time?

You are clinically insane if you think brunsons whistle is comparable to SGA

Cry about a head snap if you want but he does not get the same love from refs at all

Thats because he's not as good as Shai... Brunson definitely tries to flop just as much as him lol

Brunson does the SGA chicken wing nonsense but he also purposefully jumps into defenders after pump faking them and then has the audacity to raise his hand w how many fouls the poor guy has

Confident the Knicks can match either one of these teams in the Finals.

Williams/Shai are the C/PF on the court and yet Minny is still jacking 3s lol

Not as good at what? If Brunson had shais whistle he’d average 35

A lot of players would average over 30 if they had his whistle.

Why isn’t Reid trying to score in the paint with Chet/hartenstein out of the game?

I’d love for anyone to tell me that Caruso isn’t the best defender in the league.

Marvin Martian · Post #1413 » by **Marvin Martian** » Wed May 21, 2025 3:06 am

Reid is like 7'0 but plays like he's 6'3. MIN isn't even playing small and they are dreadful on both sides of the ball

No PG. Once you deny middle they're just winging it

Only my Knicks can stop this vicious Thunder team.

ForeverTFC · Post #1416 » by **ForeverTFC** » Wed May 21, 2025 3:07 am

People love to regard Presti as a tank god but his best moves have been trading for SGA and Caruso. Late lottery and g-leaguer going to get him his first ring.

Minnesota needs to figure out how to get Ant more/better looks. 13 shots is not going to cut it.

ImmortalD24 · Post #1418 » by **ImmortalD24** » Wed May 21, 2025 3:07 am

If Minny wants to have a chance.. they need to find a way to not play Naz and DiVincenzo. Both are liabilities in this series.

Carusos on ball defense is chefs kiss. Bring home the hardware white mamba.

For me this was one of the keys to this series, along with turnovers. The Wolves need to dominate the paint to win, and also they have to be careful with the ball. They can do so much better than this.

Who wins and advances to the NBA Finals?
