And another network prime time TV spot (although inevitably it’s just gonna be another way for them to sell Peacock on people)

Are the Wolves a better team at this very moment if they keep Jarred Vanderbilt, Walker Kessler, and their 2023 1st round pick? Yes, I know there are way more assets they gave up, but I'm talking about right now at this very moment. When they went up against the defending champs. That's what they've sacrificed so far.

It's tough to say, but that three-headed monster of bigs right now I think is what won it for us.

Damn, Denver's not having a good week.

Sure, but that CLEARLY doesn't mean he can't be effective later on.

Right or wrong, I still hate the trade, but it may work out just fine.

They’re the WCF favorite and in with a decent shot against a Boston career choker team in the Finals if they both get there healthy. I’d trade those guys for a realistic shot at a title as this is, yeah.

Murray and Jokic both had 30 pts+ and still lost. That usually doesn’t happen.

I'm thinking about all the young Nuggets fans in the Denver area with tears in their eyes right now.

And I have an erection.

Porter, Gordon and KCP no showed and Jokic was slightly less efficient than usual (likely due to being gassed and playing 47 minutes). Have to credit TWolves defense.

Congrats SNR! What a time to be a Chiefs and Wokves fan.

KC_Connection 05-19-2024 08:58 PM

This TWolves team stylistically reminds me a bit of the 2019 Raptors. The defensive bigs, the length from their wings, the veteran point guard and the primary star scorer. They’re also maybe the most physical defensive team we’ve seen since then get to this stage of the playoffs since them too.

chiefzilla1501 05-19-2024 08:58 PM

I wonder what the bigs rotation looks like against Dallas. Because Naz can easily match up with any of those guys. They're not gonna bully Minnesota like they did skinny chet. This seems like the ideal matchup for Minnesota.

RealSNR 05-19-2024 09:00 PM

Even though I'm a fan of a sports team who just clinched a dynasty, I'm still very much in, "I'm just happy to be here" mode right now.

Not even thinking about finals. We've surpassed peoples' expectations on the season for the first time, maybe in franchise history. I think a lot of people expected that 2004 team to at least make it to the WCF.

This feels great. Like when the Royals erased that lead against Oakland in 2014 and then swept the Angels and the Orioles.
