Denver is in serious trouble if they cant figure out a strategy to score outside of jokic-murray actions.

Laughable anyone puts Embiid in the same conversation as Jokic

Denver not as invincible anymore, Ant keeps cooking, I pick Wolves in 6 or 7, may be our Finals matchups imo

Denver spent a lot of energy holding off the Lakers. They'll keep it close, but they'll get closed out in 5 games.

No way Minn will tear down and trade KAT. This is a serious team that is now going to make noise because of Ant's ascension.

lakers were up big against denver a bunch of times as well. denver might not be the same team last year. wouldn't be surprised if bruce brown had a bigger impact on that squad than we thought

TWolves has a really good whistle even in this tough officiated playoffs. They'll get all the ticky tacky foul calls. Refs will save Edwards if he drives and have no option left. Even at last 2 minutes mark, refs kept calling fouls to save Ant. In the first he also traveled in 2 possessions with no call which reminds me the early days of Lebron. Good luck to any team facing the Wolves. They have NBA plot armor for financial, star-making reasons.

Statistically, I bet it’s like 90% that the road team winning game 1 wins the series

Outside of Bron and AD the Lakers didn't have anyone else to really push Denver. Reeves and dlo had some moments. Bur Minny has a lot of players that are going to make Denver work on both sides of the ball. And Ant is him.

Imo Denver ultimately became champions because of their superior positional size and in a vacuum, their supporting cast never really impressed me. I don’t say they will, but Minnesota sure can beat them. Don’t be foolish though. Jokic is a crazy mfer
