2024 NBA Playoffs: West Semifinals: #2 Denver Nuggets vs #3 Minnesota Timberwolves (Series tied 3-3)

[TimberKat]

Anthony Edward's looking like Jordan out there. The way he plays now in the midrange it's uncanny how close he looks.

He really only had a consistent midrange late this year. For a couple years, Wolves fans had been talking about how he will be unstoppable once he develops a mid range game. Looks like he's got it now.

[TimberKat]

Has KAT always been so clueless on defense? The guy just has defensive lapse after defensive laspe

His defense is already improved but that is why we need Gobert.

[JustBuzzin]

Nuggets can do what they want to Edwards apparently.

Such a rigged league. I'm sure they'll call Scott Foster or Tony Brothers for the next game.

Read on Twitter

So ANT the Wolves your favourite player and team now? Lol

Who is talking to you? I can root for other players. Definitely rooting to see when the Nuggets lose.

This board can be weird at times.

I'm literally called a Jokic hater because I said the Wolves weren't getting fair calls by the refs.

Then they start making me a Embiid fan and talking about some nonsense. It gets annoying how I'm so many of these things people claim me to be.

I'm a Hornets fan who happens to be an Embiid fanboy, a LeBron fanboy, a Jokic hater, a Luka hater, a Celtics hater.


That's a lot of titles for 1 person. How can I be all those things?

People will create a narrative for you smh

[JujitsuFlip]

Ant's coming out party has been wild.

i hope he realizes this goes all the way (and he'll be criticized, rightfully) if they don't get the series win vs the Nuggets. Anything less than an NBA Finals appearance will be seen as a failure (just basing on hype and expectations of people).

[LaLover11]

Timberwolves sweep

I don’t think you are a embiid or a Lebron fan nor do I think you are Jokic hater or a Luka and Celtics hater. You are just a troll. That’s been clear from day one. Love your victim act though. Oh poor me getting labeled

[TinmanZBoy]

Ant's coming out party has been wild.

quite frankly, Denver could not defend him in last year's playoff too... Denver's problem is their own offense is not on par..

They haven’t looked good all playoffs. This is definitely on Denver, not the Lakers or Wolves.

If Denver's offense isn't clearly better than the Wolves this whole thing is gonna go sideways for the nuggets real quick cause their defense isn't on the Wolves level either..

Ant is great but let's not forget about Luka/Shai and mostly Wemby before saying that he's the next face of the league. Likely the best american player though.

Shai just isn’t up there. Great player but hasn’t shown that killer instinct guys like Kobe/MJ had. Edwards just has that IT factor that guys like Shai/Tatums of the world don’t. Luka is too much of a cry baby, and Wemby literally has done nothing so far, but he has the highest ceiling

Dude stop lmao, this is insane recency bias

Luka upset a 64 win team a couple years ago in suns, shai had a slower series against a league top 3 perimeter defender in herb jones (whereas edwards dealt with suns 4 of his 5 games) and led the thubder to the best regular season in the west with a roster nobody thought had any all star help before the season

Edwards is amazing but you really need to look past the literal last few games

[phnart]

Timberwolves haven’t faced any adversity yet. They’ve been in control of five games in a row, even though this was the closest game they have had so far.They are on an incredible roll. I’d like to see them go all the way. They are really fun to watch.

[Onus]

Denver just doesn’t look the same as last year. Jokic is going to have to take over like he did last year for them to even have a chance.

[ItsDanger]

Denver's bench issues became very apparent in this game.

So, did Gobert get run off the floor in the 4th quarter? LOL

You're a man of the people.

[Laimbeer]

Dirk's broadcasting is as bad as his defense.

[LaLover11]

Do the Nuggets blow it up if they swept
Besides Jokic would they trade Murray?

Bruce brown was so important people are finally seeing

Okay, but also Minnesota is a better team than any they played in last year's playoffs also.

Of course not. Braun and Watson will be much better next year. I am not sure KCP will be back since he has a player option, but I am sure the front office will attack their weakness in the backup bigs departnent. They have enough wings (Strawther, Tyson and Cancar as well), they're just still in need of development.
