Nuggets vs Timberwolves is Going to Be a CLASSIC…



Nuggets vs Timberwolves is Going to Be a CLASSIC…

The Denver Nuggets and Minnesota Timberwolves are just days away from playing each other in the second round of the NBA Playoffs. The Denver Nuggets defeated the Los Angeles Lakers behind great play from Nikola Jokic, Michael Porter Jr, and Aaron Gordon as well as two big game winners from Jamal Murray. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Timberwolves swept the Phoenix Suns easily behind a dominant effort from Anthony Edwards, Rudy Gobert, Karl-Anthony Towns, and their supporting cast. Now, the two teams face off in a series that feels like it has the potential to be one of the best of these entire Playoffs, if not one of the best of the past few years. Let’s talk about it.

  1. While I am terrified of the nuggets and hope the wolves come out on top, I am just so excited to watch an instant classic. May the better team win!

  2. I just want to say this as a neutral here and Lakers fans

    If Denver go out there and play like they did against the Lakers they’re going to get SMOKED.

    KCP did not have the greatest of shooting nights.

    Gordon was a bit in consistent. Joker was vvv uncharacteristic on the turnovers. Murray couldn’t shoot the ball well till the 4th. And most importantly, Denver don’t have a bench.

    Nas Reid & NAW will smoke Braun, Holiday and Watson.

  3. The real conference finals…okc and Dallas don’t have the personnel to guard jokic lol also why tf you pick the suns to beat the timberwolves ? You wild

  4. I think its gonna be a great series but im not betting against Nuggets, Murray is that guy in the playoffs, especially in the 4th… And hes the 2nd option

  5. Defensively ants gonna have to lock in on porter off ball, jaden is gonna be on murray, and kat just needs to not foul

  6. Edge Denver for sure But..,. The T Wolves scare me and I'm saying this right now. If Minnesota does win this series,. They will be a universal problem for any team. They win again Denver,. They've officially arrived

  7. Nuggets in 5 or 6 I’m a Pistons fan sadly born and raised in Detroit but ever since 2020 I loved the Timberwolves since Edward’s arrived but with that being said there just still too young they have time to grow I’m going to respect Denver especially watching there first round match up they weren’t worried in the slightest Murray had been very bad that whole series but if you have Jokic you have a chance of winning Jokic just turned 29 he’s in his prime right now

  8. Just like everyone expecting the Suns to destroy the Wolves, if the Wolves win this series, suddenly Denver really taking a step back, fundamentally Denver is a mediocre squad. NBA analysis…really can say anything out here in them streets.

  9. this is the true WCF, whoever wins this will go to the finals. Thunder is also good but lack playoff experience compared to them

  10. Am a Nuggets fan. It will be tough. But whoever wins should not diminish the other. Both teams are good. I just hope Nuggets continue their streak🎉🎉🎉

  11. Jokic is a huge problem. I hope the wolves are extra physical and it results in 15 fouls spread safely to all three bigs. Meanwhile jokic picks up his 5th foul in the 3rd quarter and goes to the bench.

  12. LOVE this matchup.

    6-7 games with T-Wolves winning because of their bench and depth defending.
    Jaden, ANT, NAW, and Rudy are all shutdown defenders. Slo-Mo and Conley are good too.
    KAT has defended Jokic well in previous games.

    the top defense wins because? – – – – of their defense
