Facing elimination in front of their home fans, this was a do or die for Minnesota. And even with Mike Conley back in the lineup, they got a wake up call early in the 1st when they fell down 9-2, and things looked similar to the last 3 games. But what happened next is the most furious run I’ve seen so far in these playoffs..
Oh my goodness, everyone in the building was standing throughout this whole run, celebrating each bucket louder than the previous one. But the real spark was ignited on the defensive end, as they turned up the pressure, especially on Murray, forcing turnovers which led to easy buckets on the other side. Just look at this monster trailing block by McDaniels, and then..
This was the absolute peak moment of this electric 27-2 run, as the entire arena erupted, saluting their team. ANT MAN was in his bag, leading the pack with 14 points in the first period, and 27 total. And according to him, he already knew that game 7 was coming.
Jaden McDaniels was also phenomenal, shooting 8 for 10 on his way to 21 PTS, and in this 4 minute span before the break and early in the 3rd, he was the only one scoring for Minnesota, keeping the lead at safe distance with 4 consecutive field goals.
This leads us to the best play of the night, when Edwards first stripped Jokic here and then..
Wow, I was not ready for this one, he gets MPJ in the air with the sick hesi and then took off for the 2 handed jam. Crazy moves on display.
Since KD is his favorite player, I guess he got this one from him.
Let’s go back, as this wasn’t something that Wolves fans wanted to see in this game.
As RJ said it, I guess his age really helped him bounce back from this scary fall, and as you can see, he’s good as new on the next possession, picking Jamal full court and running through screens.
This was a blowout in the making ever since that epic 1st quarter run, however Mike Malone kept his players in the game till the 4th quarter, hoping for a miracle comeback, but it wasn’t that kind of a night, as Edwards drains the 3, and a couple of possessions later, down by 30, Denver raises the white flag, subbing Jokic and Murray out of the game.
And after another 3 by Nickeil Alexander Walker to go up by 36, Nori subbed out ANT who wasn’t gonna sit without showing everyone the game 7 sign.
On rategame, the app that I’m a part of, we score each game by how interesting they are. And I still gave this one a 6.1 as I loved the intensity and the response from the Timberwolves to force a game 7.
The playoffs are escalating, and only yesterday we saw Luka Doncic taking things personally, and going god mode. You gotta check out what happened right here. Talk to you in the next one. Peace out.

That hesi tho
If the winner of this series doesn't win it all I'm eating my shoes.
this seemed kinda idk shady to get to that money maker game 7
Thank you for this buddy.
Denver stiLL wins Game 7.
TimberbuLLs wiLL foLd for these moments.
But who will win game 7?
Props to Tvolwes, but Nuggets needed this for motivation
bench murray for d in 7 lol
Ouch
Im convinced that Anthony Edwards has a unique gift of adapting the moves and skills of all time greats like KD Kobe and Jordan to his arsenal
He really is the next archetype of those players
Is it just me, or is the left ear right louder than the right
It was weird how AG wasn’t bringing up the ball as much early this game. That’s what helped them get back into the series.
What does scoring a game in the app do?
Denver felt like it was a closed deal — it's not and now they're in danger of getting eliminated at home. 🙁
why does the timbs arena look so foggy??
Murray and MPJ played like bums the entire series. Idk how Denver made it a 7 games series with 2 starters playing like they're not NBA players.
Mike took away the ball handling pressure from Ant.
This must be the toughest series. Whoever wins this must face Boston and will win all the way
They got Jokic but we got McDonald’s 🤣
Antman told the Denver locker room staff that he'll see them at game 7. MJ did something similar I heard. Got into the opposing team's locker room and declared a win
The difference between the west and the east is wild
0:13 bro MIke Conley looks absolutely JACKED
it's going to be a good game. I think nuggets got it playing at home. Neither are my team, but i really want to see a Denver v Dallas matchup.
I was in the crowd. I can’t believe what I experienced. I don’t think anyone in my section sat down for more than 5 mins throughout the game. I just remembered being scared when we went down early then that run started and I couldn’t stop yelling.. next thing I know I look up and we’re up 30.
Puštena utakmica brate, bezobrazno. Pisalo u scenariju mora bit 7 utakmica. Denver reko ok evo vam ga.
Anthony Edwards getting knocked down and then picking up jamal full court was a statement to the fans that he is fine. Dude is cold. I ride for the nugs but i gotta give him props. Hes a true competitor and has so much heart. He doesnt want to be denied.

Another fire vid 🔥 excited for game seven!

Best NBA recap channel in the world.
Rigged sports media >>
I'm starting to think Ant Man believes he's Jordan too!
Luka vs ant would be an epic finals showdown. Can't wait 😁
I have a feeling
THIS YEAR FINAL GONNA B CRAZY 🔥
Nuggets should win in game 7. They live for these types of moments. Jokic will propel them to victory by any means necessary. However, their path going forward is not easy considering their team is not as talented as Dallas and Boston outside of Jokic.
Jaden McDaniels
