We are getting some momentum but we let Westbrook and Jokic ran right down the middle.

Ant isn’t right. Apart from playing poorly, his body language is off. Dealing with his harem of women might be getting to him..

Great effort despite ANT being clearly not 100%. Go Wolves!

Not much in the way of offensive firepower with this lineup.

We forgot there is a 4th qtr. Looks like we are done tonight. Just hope we keep the 7th seed.

Too poor shooting tonight. Won't be enough. Jaden 3/11, ANT 3/12, Mike 1/6. Today we can't hit bucket, it's happen.

Ant is deadweight out there. No interest in boxing out.. his head is not in it. Play Jaylen

16-2 run to start the 4th. We just are allergic to a 48 minute performance. Given how we started the first I would say we allergic to a 38 minute performance.

Feels like a loss, but only down three!

Anthony Edwards saved up all of his late game makes for THIS moment! :lol:

The moving screens against us in the Pistons game were bad, but they are worse tonight. He ran into Gobert and fell down grabbing Rudy. Refs are blind or dirty.

Honestly, this is a situation where an Anthony Edwards isolation makes sense. That said, I expect Denver to blitz him early.

Honestly, don’t think screens should be set there. Just space out and allow Anthony Edwards to collapse the defense.

That said, Minnesota took too long to get into action there.

Finch is the worst end of game ATO coach in the league, and probably in the history of the league. So many contested off balance 3s when a 2 wins.

Poor play call and run, no surprise.

Great game though
