Get it… they're Nuggets… and they're cooked… like chicken nuggets… that get cooked…
So we're going with the narrative that Jokic is playing well? Really? He's shooting 42% from the field and the Wolves are running a layup line in his paint. He just dropped 2 home games and your narrative is that he's playing great!? Would you talk this way about ANY other MVP player if they were in this spot?
Well the pacers was still up by 9 in the forth and lost
This new found energy/attitude is greatly appreciated. Seems like a fun time to be making content
Reality check my friend. Us in the great state of Minnesota expect a sweep with every series. We have watched this team beat every good team all year. We aren't new to Ant, we are true to Ant. Welcome to the new era.
Did you forget? 0-3 in the bubble 😮
Timberwolves playing like a 90s team 😆. I love it. Let them play hard knock basketball like this ref.
The Knicks are gonna burn out
He looks completely spent, no excuses they getting cooked he gotta do better
Sad part is they about to give Jokic mvp over luka….
3:03 “Jokic has been good he’s been putting up his numbers” huh? What series are you watching?
Turner was shuffling his feet the entire time…. I get people not wanting it called at the end of the game but it gave a huge advantage to the Pacers on that possession if it isn’t.
obvious that this was going to happen, the nuggets have no all starts other than Jokic
Nuggets fan gonna complain about something as to why they getting curb stomped and spanked like a bad 2 y/o
This is no surprise to me. They been looking for pieces to put around KAT every since Jimmy Butler left now here it is. Surprise
you clearly dont follow the heat, pats presser was tame compared to other years
Refs doing 360 , and yeah your now in the 90es. Ball hoggs and ballerinas are Over. Adjust or get swept. I know.. i know.. its crazy, i shouldnt be done this way..
I’ve been with Minnesota ever since that win at the Warriors at the beginning of the season.
This is how the refs should always officiate. Playoffs or not.
Speaking on Pat Riley- he also said Butler wasn’t gonna be available for trades this offseason so I’m sure they’re gonna try to work something out to keep him; he embodies their culture so much I’d doubt they’d just want him gone, no matter how much smack he talks lol
I wonder if Wolves met with Boston, which team would KG support ;)?
Murray will probably get suspended a game. Nuggets will lose either way.
One team can play as physical as it wants the other can’t. That’s the difference
i Love every part of this i hate the nuggets
Jokic needs to score 40 a game from here on out for them to even have a chance.
Theyre cooked wolves too good and nuggets lost their cool players. While ago. Not same team. Theyre boring, murrays sloppy playing shit. He shouldve had 30 at half they big headed talkin bout money. He got the fame bug 🐛🐛🐛🐛
Scary they did it without Rudy
I'm glad the refs are not calling fouls on physicality. Minnesota's style of play reminds me of the 2000s 90s ball when defense was actually a thing and it is so refreshing to see. if Minnesota wins it all, it's going to shake up the league because I guarantee you teams will start focusing on playing defense again.
2000s defense coming back.
I was only able to watch the first half of this game, but I watched most of the Knicks-Pacers, so maybe it evened out a bit, but to me, it's moreso the consistency of officiating. When you look at someone like Brunson who gets calls so often over tick-tack fouls and then you tune into this game it's like night and day. Going both ways too. There needs to be some consistency there in my opinion. Either let them play more physical which is what I personally would like to see, or call the fouls. I know there's a "star player" treatment in baiting foul calls, but still. I don't know if it's suddenly a change of initiative with Silver wanting more physicality now after seeing the amount of people upset with 140-140 games and soft fouls, but it shouldn't be this noticeable.
In regards to that Indy-Knicks illegal screen, it did look like Turner moved a bit on the screen. I think that was the correct call unless you WANT physicality like I said earlier. What we didn't mention is that toward the end of the game, the refs called a kick ball on Indiana when the replay clearly showed it wasn't kicked, and they would've challenged it, but you can't challenge kick ball calls. That alone kills momentum and keeps more time on the clock for NY to make plays. Gotta give it to Brunson though, that man got ice in his veins.
Also, Minnesota just has such incredible depth. Naz Reid and Nickeil are probably some of the best players you could have off the bench. Conley is such a great vet to have too, I've liked him since he came into the league. KAT playing well on both sides. DPOY Rudy. McDaniels too and then you have Ant breaking out into superstardom at the right time on top of it all. They also match up very well to Denver too just in general.
Man, the Timberwolves are a different team. They show no mercy which I love. I was a Nuggets fan but I am leaning hard for the Wolves to win the whole thing.
i think the nba got the memo that no one likes the nuggets so they changed the script this season
There is nothing abnormal about Rileys exit interview. Hes always this honest and Jimmys agent came out after saying that Jimmy isnt going anywhere
A lot of Wolves fans expected us to make a run to the WCF once we saw what our roster and defense looked like at the start of our year but it’s shocking how well it has translated to the playoffs. Can’t believe we’re undefeated
Coach Malone was trying to get kicked out of the game intentionally. I think he could tell what was about to happen to his team at this point 😂😅. The ref chose to keep him in the abyss
I didn’t even know Wemby on rookie of the year 💀
Nuggets just came off a chanpionship season and going back to back in the nba is really hard considering they lost a number of key bench players from last season, plus KCP and jammal murray are not 100%. If they lose to the twolves hopfully the nuggets upgrade thier bench in the offseason, i also think they need a upgrade in the back up centre position to reduce the workload on Jokic,
Ouch!!
Top notch recap
I was really hoping for Celtics/Nuggets. Celtics/Wolves, if it happens, will be a slog.
Minnesota has the "eye of the tiger" & sadly Denver looks beat up and tired. Plus someone besides Jokic needs to play point guard. It looks like this season for the Nuggets is a wash and they need to bring in a quality backup to Joker and for Murray.
Speaking of Jamal his outburst with throwing stuff at the referee might be getting him suspended. Not very smart on his part.
It's the right call, just not consistently called. God bless! Jesus Christ is King and saves and is the way! Psalms 62 – "Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him. Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken." Jeremiah 29:11 – "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Nuggets get cooked.. no sht Sherlock.. im not talking about the food
now if that was draymond yelling at the ref…
I just wanna pause real quick right where Malone is screaming in a ref’s face. AE got a tech for looking at a player after a bucket. Malone got nothing for abusing the shit out of a ref.
Ironic that Malone is bitching about the refs.
