    Nuggets should’ve sweeper them! Wolves got nobody except Mike Conley but he can’t do it alone. Bum ass Gobert & Mr shoot and miss Edwards what a joke they even won a game to prolong their first round exit 🤣🤣🤣

    Nets got to be embarrassed knowing they're the only team to get swept in Round 1 after that also happened last year.

    Hahahaha😀. The JOKA missed that free throw on purpose. He didn't wanna rest and get rusty.

    The basketball was great, the Reffing was a joke. Missed calls, makeup calls, retaliatory calls. All challenges were won, and there could have been at least a dozen more both ways. The network only showed 1 foul that wasn't challenged on a replay, and it was bad. How Jokic didn't foul out in the first half is beyond me, and I can't figure out why he is the only player in the league that is consistently allowed to throw those elbows.

    And still, with all of that, it was a great game to watch. Gordon Murray and Edwards were all explosive and entertaining

    Frikkn Joker 42 / 11/ 6 shooting almost 60%. I believe he should take the MVP again this season. His FG%, passing game, court vision and Basketball IQ are way above the other 2 IMO. Having only 25ppg is simply attributed to Less attempts per game, as he's more of a total package.
