nah, the T-Wolves beat the Nuggets when the teams were healthy during the season and those weren't meaningless because of both teams competing for the 1 seed
nothing has changed in the playoffs... and the warning signs were lit when the Nuggets were trailing to the Lakers at half each game ... and won 2 at the buzzer and LeBum missed that wide open 3
I thought they just didn't respect LA (maybe still true) but they are clearly not the same as last year obviously. Injuries racking up... and looking back to last year they were lucky that the Lakers made it to the West Finals and then the Heat upset the Celtics... made it pretty easy on Denver.
Jokic got his chip and he didn't look like he wanted to even try to compete yesterday down big... ready to go to his farm. Wolves got that length to guard everything they like to run. We know Porter Jr isn't that 3rd guy to spark a comeback in the series with a huge 40+ game like you could get from Klay for the Warriors years ago.
Wolves are -500 to win the series now
KAT is actually playing like a winner and that is something that surprises me a lot. Props to him. Only problem for Wolves is every possession that is ruined by that bum K.Anderson trying to shoot the ball (1 hand shots half the time that make you scratch your head) all he is good for is getting a random tip in off a miss or grabbing a couple rebounds.
