2024 NBA Playoffs: West Semifinals: #2 Denver Nuggets vs #3 Minnesota Timberwolves (MIN WINS 4-3)

I didn't see 80% of the 4th quarter due to being on a call with fiancee during a tornado warning, but just caught the last 5 minutes on Youtube.

Did Jaden McDaniels really try to do a bounce off the floor oop to himself with the game out of reach? He's lucky KCP didn't undercut him for that and it would have been justifiable.

Did Anthony Edwards really wave at the classy Denver fans as though he was "the" reason they won? They've got ridiculous talent in both the starting lineup and rotation and they certainly weren't some underdogs.

I can tell both these dudes are not classy and definitely didn't have father figures in their life if that's how they behave. Yikes. :lol:

To all those Denver fans that said McDaniels and Reid wouldn't have helped last year in the playoffs:

Man it’s gonna feel weird , tuning into watching WCF and realizing Denver isn’t there , I know it’s only one year but kind of feel they’ve been there long time

What the hell is it with the GB threads and talking about players needing/not having father figures in their life?
Last game it was all about Jokic being a father figure to the other Nuggets.

George Karl out here hacking peoples accounts or what?

Hopefully Calvin booth pulls his head out of his ass and add the depth that’s needed to win a championship. Mike Malone had to stop playing Peyton Watson

The same Lebron would have destroyed this Wolves team. Stop acting like Jokic went up against the Dynasty Warriors here.

Happy for Minnesota but this isn't some great team in the grand scope

Every team LeBron faced in the East from 2010 to 2018 was inferior to this Wolves team. Every. Single. One.

Yeah that’s gonna be a no dawg.

Yeah are we really gonna act like this Timberwolves team is some stacked team now?

If Bron beat them people would just say they were young and inexperienced/fake contenders like always lol

Which bandwagon are you jumping on now?

I've got to keep it in Texas, but I'd be on the Knicks train if they'd given a damn today.

I already see Arod telling Mike Malone who’s your daddy now ?

Joel Embiid is going to feel lonely. The Eastern Conference Finals virgin's counterpart, Rudy Gobert, is going to lose his Western Conference Finals virginity

Ok, but Denver didn't just beat those teams, they destroyed them. Between Brown, healthier Murray and sprier KCP, they had a better roster last year.

AWESOME for the Celtics with the biggest threat out of the way. Mavs and Wolves will get out shot, or locked up.

Your 2024 champs, let's go!!!

Such arrogance for a team that collective has 1 championship, and I mean 1 individual player has 1 championship.

Wolve's were phenomenal. Props to them, there is little to no weaknesses on that team.

All Dallas has inside is Gafford and Lively. Townes, Gobert, and Reid should have a decided advantage .

Minnesota in 5

Wth happened in the bubble? Ever since then it seems that HCA doesn't mean much , and in some cases is a disadvantage. Maybe sleeping in a hotel with a team is better for a player 's performance than sleeping at home?

Nah they need a real big man for when Jokic sits. Can’t have Jokic go 1 v 3 against Minnesota again.

Happy to see Malone get knocked down a peg. Dude was talking a little too much after winning one championship. Players can do it but it rubs me the wrong way when a coach does it.

Who’s your daddy? I guess it’s the Wolves now

Who wins GAME 7 and goes to the WCFs?
