I guess the Lakers match took a lot from Denver even if they went 3-1. They never got any rest since Minny swept the Suns.
No one is telling Denver they can’t be physical too. They’re getting abused and they’re not fighting back. I’m rooting for the nuggets, but this is a rollover
Playoff basketball is always physical. That's why Harden played in the playoffs right the officiating changes.
IMO, T-Wovles made a mistake going to Ant for several possessions in-a-row. They need to keep everyone engaged on offense. The main reason for the blowout is the T-Wolves incredible defense combined with the Nuggets softness and lack of cohesion on offense. This is not the game to worship Ant. He's played well just like everyone else but this is not about him. T-Wolves fans: "Thank you Rudy!"
It’s just the style of play. Like the swag and movements. It’s fun to be able to see someone play so similarly in an era where nobody has really done that.
Also 11 Denver turnovers to three for Minnesota in a 35-point half. This is 2000 Baltimore Ravenesqe lol
they've called more fouls on denver (beyond laughable) and ant gets every call, so it's different for the 2 teams
Adam Silver thanking every deity in existence that a charismatic exciting star like Ant came on the scene with the decline of Bron and Steph because dudes like Jokic, Luka, and Giannis have no personality…NBA about to market this dude heavily
Shoutout to Minny coach Finch. He was Rick Adelman's chosen successor but Morey went with Kevin McHale lol.
he doesn’t, and if he does, he has nowhere near the level of personality or charisma of someone like Ant
Murray's worst game ever. KCP took no shots so far. Reggie's 0-5. This goes to show that perimeter defense >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> interior defense.
Nah Luka has the stronger personality. He constantly trash talks, already has enemies like Booker, is charismatic.
