Let's see where the mood and thoughts of Wolves fans are at!

Tomorrow we will play with a sense of emergency. I'm sure all players will do a bit more and we can compete. If we manage to get this one, pressure will be on Denver for game 7. Hope it happens and we can see.

I think it will be a similar game to last year game 5...Of course I hope with a different ending!

We should be able to take game 6 but I think it depends on the crowd in the building. I think they’ll be on edge considering the outcome of 3 & 4.

They have to bring the energy regardless

The Nuggets were dead after game 2. Jamaal Murray couldn't get them into any sort of an offense. Lucky for them they had 4 days off to come up with the adjustment of taking the ball out of Murray's hands and relying on Gordon and Jokic to initiate everything. Our coaching staff needs to come up with a counter-adjustment now.

We saw them trying some zone at the end of game 5. We saw them trying some Naz/Towns/Gobert lineups. If we trust our coaching staff, we need to believe they will come up with something that will give us the best chance of knocking off the champs.

I think "a little bit" is the best out of the poll options. If Minnesota evens the series tonight, then anything is possible. That said, given the trajectory of the series, Minnesota is back to being significant underdogs, for sure.

Refs let them play = 100% win
Refs being ticky tack and “by the book” = 100% we lose

Not at all.

They are the better team and have cracked the code on the best ways to beat our schemes.
They have brutally exposed our weaknesses.

Going to take a pretty big meltdown or injury to Jokic for us to win 2 straight.

Pretty big meltdown by Denver: we're halfway there.

I'm putting up motivating bulletin board material my friend.
I'm playing 4D chess here, try to keep up.

Never happier to have been so wrong.
What a win and what an effort.
Bit of a shooting meltdown from Denver tonight but we definitely came and took it in the 2nd half.

I was a “Very” with screenshots to prove it.

I came and read the board just before halftime last game and I didn’t even login. I wasn’t going to get brought into the negativity. I wanted to believe and stay positive. So happy for all of us fans. This team is worth the stress.
