Warriors or Timberwolves? Inside the NBA Makes Their Picks



Warriors or Timberwolves? Inside the NBA Makes Their Picks

Yeah, that’s championship resolve right there. That that was an incredible performance. I mean, game plan, discipline to a team, 48 minutes, toughness, grit. That’s why you guys have hung banners and you new guys. You’re learning from these guys. Let’s keep this thing rolling. They will try to keep it rolling against the Minnesota Timberwolves in the next round. Again, the 67 matchup. And um so the Golden State Golden State won the last three this year after losing five in a row. They won both games in Minnesota. It really doesn’t matter that regular season stat. Jimmy Butler didn’t play anything. I know it’s the first time, but um you got aunt, you got you got um Steph, you got Jimmy, got Buddy Heel. Yeah. I I just want to see the cross McDaniels. Yeah. Yeah, because I I’m interested to see, you know, at times, you know, Ant-Man has taken the the responsibility of guarding the Kyres, the Steph Curry of the world. But now that Jimmy Butler is there, that’s a different scenario. So, I don’t think he has the the luxury to say, I’m going to try to put the fire out on Steph, who actually averaging saw 29 points a game against them anyway. So, he’s probably going to have to guard Jimmy Butler. And then there’s a cross match up with Jay McDaniels and or Michael Connelly, which will not guard Jimmy Butler. So, I think the Warriors actually have a a matchup advantage in this series uh offensively. Uh and they’re going to be harder to guard than Minnesota for some reason. I’m going take Minnesota. Um I think Minnesota’s playing really, really well right now. Ant is a hell of a player. His confidence is skyhigh. I think the interesting matchup is how often they’re going to play small because if they put Rudy out there, they’re going to attack him in the pick and roll and that’s just going to open up spots everywhere if he’s going to try to stay in front of Steph, which he can’t. He would have to double. Uh so that’s going to be uh Minnesota’s going to have to go small a lot if they’re going to beat this. So you this is like I Nas Reed but you know Shaq you might have to say it again this might be one of them right Rudy dominates he might dominate yeah but it I don’t know if he can I’m wondering what tactics Minnesota is going to go through defensively to try to stop SC Stepher did a great job of saying once he gets rid of the ball deny him we don’t want him to get the ball back. Is Minnesota going to do that? they’re going to go to the traditional way cuz Steph didn’t have a great series and they were still able to win. So, I’m, you know, I’m also interested in matchups. I’m interested in in the pick and roll, but I’m wondering how they going to play Steph cuz they they only got two guys that can really play like that. D Vincenzo and the other young fella that can deny. They don’t really have a lot of bodies and and you don’t want your bodies getting tired chasing chasing around Steph. So, I’m going with Golden State. Forgot to mention Julius Randall when I was running down those guys you’re going to see in that. Uh yeah, but that’s that’s a Draymond that’s a Draymond responsibility. You got you top three in the defensive. That’s going to be a fun matchup. And they’re playing they’re playing as well as anybody right now. They’ve won 12 of their last 14. 21 out of 26. Uh at least it’s not. [Music] Um we will have some fishing before it’s all over here on Inside. We’ll be back.

  1. Everyone in MN cursing Chuck right about now lol. GSW in 6 or 7 it is then.

  2. this game is so great that reminds me why I never watched NBA since Curry era. the game is so effective with so many 3 points that ignore & show less showtime. nba so much care on game effectiveness, even they ignore about declining viewers. 3 pointers make ball handlers like kyrie & lebron & big man like giannis westbrook look stupid. I really miss the showtime. I'd like to thank curry for ruining the Nba

  3. I doubt any player on the Timberwolves can guard Steph better than Amen Thompson did. I get the feeling that Steph is going to unlock this series.

  4. ngl as a dubs fan i think this is goin be a good series i got warriors in 7. i hope draymond and rudy not off some bullshit πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  5. "Are game for tonight is GSW vs a 999th-ranked highschool team"

    Chuck: *still bet against the Warriors*

  6. Now we just need that other talking head to pick the Twolves, then the Warriors will be in good shape.

  7. Chuck would probably pick a team of 5 chess players to win against the warriors….dude has been sourgraping for a long time now… He is beyond lime at this point…

  8. Houston has done a pretty good job of limiting Curry because of their young, physical and big players…

  9. Gsw and lakers are too small for the wolves.. I'm picking wolves to win the series until chuck mentioned he is picking the wolves πŸ˜… OMG wolves is in trouble 😊

  10. Rockets have great defense on Steph and deployed so much defensive attention on him and yet, Steph shot well above 43% on 3s for the series and average like 24 points with like 62% true shooting percentage. He did turn the ball over a lot more and that's why it went to a game 7 but given how much defensive assets the Rockets were willing to throw at Steph, this isn't truly a win for the Rockets.

    I think that's why the Warriors are so hard to beat in the playoffs. You would have to give up so much in order to "contain" Stephen Curry but it would open up so many opportunities for other Warrior players and in whole, it still puts you in a disadvantage overall.

    That's why Steph is almost impossible to guard or scheme against. It's like a lose-lose situation for the opponents as you would either "contain" him and let the rest of the Warriors have great looks or let him really cook you.

  11. chuck is a bulter heater, i remember him picked whatever miami heat come their way until miami reached the finals πŸ˜…
