Or you could also give credit to the MVP and his defending champion squad for battling with their backs against the wall. Two things can be true at the same time.

He got away with pushing Jokic in that last offensive rebound earlier

Jokic pushes in the back all the time, they should just let them keep doing it

Karl-Anthony Towns should not have helped off Aaron Gordon there.

In his defense, he just had a baby.

I’m telling you they’re probably afraid of hurting Towns or Gobert’s feelings. Naz is a starter in this league imo.

I mean it's the fact that Denver is consistently doing it on the other end without getting called for it.


Nonsense, Denver has *checks notes* 5 offensive rebounds. So if they're supposedly doing it, they're terrible at it.

Minnesota has 10 offensive rebounds and I've seen Gobert do it a couple times, but I'm not going to whine about that - or G2 where Minnesota could assault Denver without a worry of a foul call. 8-)


I mean, the G2 whistle is the ideal basketball whistle.

The championship poise of Denver everytime Minnesota cuts into the lead is just brilliant.

KAT is supposed to be the leader of this team yet he is so clumsy and inconsistent that the media is going to a 22 year old.

KAT is supposed to be the guy in the winning age bracket.
Aaron Gordon, Devin Booker, Tyrese Halliburton, Trae Young, Anthony Edwards and Luka Doncic all made the Conference Finals.

Where’s Joel Embiid?
