C’MON WOLVES! This is not the Wednesday night entertainment I signed up for. Gonna have to go watch some crappy Amazon fantasy series if you don’t pick it up — wife knows enough about sports to boot me off the TV if the score is lopsided.

How many clunkers have Minnesota thrown up in these playoffs? Like 5 at least?

Anthony Edwards, outside of missing a couple threes, is pretty much everything that you could want from him here, but his team sucks.

That's a bit of a demoralizing buzzer beater

The Wolves are one of the most unenjoyable teams to watch I've ever seen. Antman has got to get out of there.

OKC is good. They beat the best Western team besides them in Denver. Give credit where credit is due

Even with a healthy Steph, The Warriors would have been also majorally waxed by the Thunder.

The Thunder have been the most talented team in the league for a couple of years now and this is.the season they are going to cash in, like the Celtics last year.

It's a miracle in itself Denver pushed them to 7 games.

No one aside from the Spurs is going to come close to them in the West for the next 5 years.

They have the flexibility (cap space and draft picks) to get better too.

They definitely have Dynasty potential

Demeanor is a big thing. OKC players have been consistently the same whether up big, down big or in a close game. Contrast that with the reactions from some of the Minnesota players.

9 point quarter is freaking historic! Might be the most bombastic defensive performance I have seen in a playoff quarter.
