    KAT is the type of modern player that frustrates me he is 7 foot but wants to be a 3 point shooter. He has made enough that no one tells him not to shoot but he has a mismatch down low and won't expoit it to help his team win a series.

    Ant is great but when you get this deep in the playoffs teams know how to negate the other teams best player so the others have to beat them and Wolves haven't figured out a counter attack.

    I guess you have to ride it out with Jabari because that is what he has taught himself from his childhood onwards.

    Game of punches, and Luka is throwing the last punch......Kyrie also known for his late game punches.

    Wolves actually lack real time closers, Edwards good and fine but you need more closers.

    Harden was predictable in the Playoffs where he would count his good games, mediocre games and games that he would disappear in......

    The problem isn't big man shooting 3s. The problem is big man being soft not wanting to mix it up down low. I think Jabari is better than KAT in that regard.

    No he is not, KAT has been playing like his entire life......that is why they got Gobert.

    I mean yeah ideally you want him to be this and that but there is hardly a perfect player.

    The problem is that while Edwards has turned into a star, he is still inexperienced versus Luka and Kyrie.

    It is that simple, otherwise the Wolves are just playing well enough.

    KAT is who he is at this point, but Edwards can be molded into something way more.

    Dallas may sweep. The young teams aren't doing well in the playoffs. Experience matters.

    Wolves settling for outside shots. They get an angle and pull up instead of attacking the basket. They will absolutely lose that way unless they turn that around.

    Calling a shot now: If Luka closes out this series he's probably winning MVP next season (if he stays healthy), whether or not Dallas wins the championship
