    Break up the gobert/Kat combo. It was stupid to begin with. Give Edwards and Kat a real 3rd option

    Jokic archetype doesn't survive in playoffs narrative gotta end, man. It is moronic. He was off tonite and still won them the game.

    Minnesota, where all the women are strong, all the men are handsome, all the
    Children above average and all the teams lose in the first round.

    Guy has never had 1 single all-star teammate stop it lol. He's doing the best he can given the circumstances.

    Sabonis is doing fine. Does it help when you are playing the GSW too?

    No idea what this even trying to say

    you’re trying to end some narrative when all den did was beat the last seed as the top seed in the 1st round. Woopty dooo.

    Now that phx is up with elite weapons this narrative you’re referring to will absolutely be tested.

    It’s a fact. Not an excuse. Clearly you didn’t know they were terrible on the road all year and folks must have missed the part where sac won the series

    Oh no he's not gonna beat the team with Durant-Booker-CP-Ayton with Murray and Gordon. He's not made for playoffs then.

    I honestly don't know what to tell you if you expect the nuggets to beat he Suns to acknowledge that the guy is the real deal in playoffs. Do you want him to breathe fire and create cyclones with his fart too?

    Who said jokic isn’t good. Dudes a multi mvp winner. It’s literally common sense he’s damn good

    you’re the one trying to do this end all narrative when all they did was beat the last seed in the 1st round which clearly they’re supposed to do. This is where you make no sense. Quit trying to overexaggerate

    The #1 Seed . . . its championship or bust
    If they DO NOT get out of the Second Round - That is a MAJOR LETDOWN and DISAPPOINTMENT
    Period

    If The Bucks lose to the Heat. . . . .. That is a major disappointment
