Abysmal pass from Donte.

They’ve done that a few times

We need to match their intensity.

Naz just isn’t playable defensively in this series. It’s a real problem.

Who’s guarding these guys in the mid range?

Ant is missing some 3s by a millimeter. So deep and coming back out.

An Ant FT from a new game.

In a zone, nobody. It’s why Kyle Anderson was so effective as a zone-buster in Minnesota; that free-throw line area is completely free.

Good change from Finch to switch back to man.

Almost 20 minutes in and he finally go to the line.

Caruso got the ball 10 feet away looking to pass. We all backed off of him and gave him the wide open 10 footer. NBA players are going to make that 90+% of the time.

They called palming on SGA? What alternate universe am I in?

Rudy has to hold the ball

Anthony Edwards is having a mostly good half, but the missed open threes are killing Minnesota.

Instead of switching on Shai they should prob trap him a few times. Their whole team is getting right to the mid range shots they want with no resistance.

Caruso is a stud. VERY good playoff bb player

Killer end to the half.

Wolves just aren’t smart enough to sustain. Turnovers and missed open shots will win them the prize.

Shai is shooting 66%. He doesn’t feel the defense at all. He also has two fouls, go at him.

As expected, Minnesota doesn’t seem to have the sauce to beat OKC. Just devastating that the Aaron Gordon injury happened and nuked Denver out of orbit.

You can't make dumb mistakes and we are making them. Instead of down 4, we are down 8. Not going to win.
