Wasn’t he initiating the offense pretty much every time down?

A couple of times he did not and it cost them.  Know the pecking order.

They're both great young players. They have completely different games, so I won't compare them. I'd take them both on my team.

Yes.  I really hope Minny shocks the world tonight and Edwards goes off.

Just as OKC wasn't quite ready to "shock the world," I'm feeling that it isn't quite the Timberwolves' turn yet.

As a fan, I'd be fine with either Minnesota or Denver. I really like watching both teams play. I just think Jokic, Murray and the Nuggets will do what's necessary to win tonight.

Ya....that seems most likely. 

Doncic kind of annoys me.  The constant complaining has more than gotten old.  I will be rooting for either Denver or Minny to win WCF and ultimately the chip.

Crazy to see a Tom Thibodeau team wear down in the playoffs.

The expected happened

Championship team showed up.

Up and comers have zero clue on offense.

Gobert and Conley helped steer the development. But wow was that first half a flashing light as to why those two have never won anything.

It's been rough but the game isn't over.

Kyle Anderson or the Manatee

Your hostility towards manatees is totally inexcusable.  They're a wonderful species and have graced our planet for 50 million years.

Edwards clearly fouled on that drive.  Then they call a moving screen?  Bcrape.

50 million years ago we were monkeys. No we we've got the internet, AI and space travel.
What have manatees done with their time?

That wasn't a foul.  The game should be over.

The list is long.  They're highly influential in protecting a number of our marine species.   They're also kind and gentle.  Leave them alone and stop disparaging them.

Wow … I didn’t see that coming. Good for the Wolves! Fun, talented, hard-working team.

Winning with Ant going 6-24 is very impressive.
