How it went from Timberwolves gonna sweep the Nuggets to Timberwolves has 0 chance to win this series… 😂
I can't believe Minnesota would let a pos cheater like a roid buy that one team. I hate Minnesota way more not w because of the A Roid affiliation
From a pure talent perspective, boston is the best roster in the league. their performance says otherwise so minnesota or denver would win the title depending on who wins this series
Whoever keep saying they shouldn't play Rudy they need to stop the cap… because he is in there to protect the paint and stop the lob from Jokic to Gordon and without him….
Whos gonna protect the paint and stop the Lob threat… obviously KAT and Reid isnt capable of doing neither of that
Boston is having a cake walk to the Finals because the east is just so bad. Add the injuries to eastern playoff teams and this may be the easiest path to the Finals since the KD Warriors. That could mean one of two things. Either they come into the finals untested and not ready for real intensity and lose one of the first two games at home, or they come in healthy and rested and with a big advantage over a western team–probably the Nuggets–that has been physically pounded for over a month by a brutal western gauntlet and is running on fumes.
I'm here only because of Molly.
T Wolves aren’t ready to win it all, they got more dues to pay. Same with OKC. Boston will win the East no problem. They have to fix their problems winning at home if they expect to win the title.
Now I’m going to pick the wolves..😂
Much better without Stephen A
Celtics arent beating pacers. We all know that
😂
There's no denying the Celtics are the favorite by far
Why does it feel like the refs help Boston every game. Sure the Cavs do foul Boston, that’s fair, but then Boston fouls Cleveland the same ways and no calls? I’m a heat fan and I saw a lot of this in the Miami series as well. Boston takes double, almost triple the amount of free throws each game. I would like the refs of the games to be officiated fairly. If Boston wins the title this year with the refs helping them the rest of the way I will not respect this ring at all. Come on NBA, your better than this.
Mavericks vs. Nuggets would be a lot of fun to watch.
Shannon the only black guy media don't hate jokic the reason i subscribe to shannon channel ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Molly asks a question and sits until the next commercial. She has the best job in the world lol
This show is so scripted. Idiots in suits
Shannon on point as allways
Where's Stephen A?
Wolves on Top
Boston can’t cover that spread next game. Too many points
Tim just bends over for Luka it’s ridiculous
Shannon actually has down to earth analysis from a professional athlete perspective when it's not about Lakers and Lebron. I like his insights on what it feels like to find yourself in a certain competitive situation as he's been through that numerous times.
Yes, but OKC will beat them.
Boston played injured teams. Heat without butler and Terry and now Cavs with Mitchell hurt
Edwards is going to give the answer.
We are going to see if he is the next Jordan and Bryant.
The way he talks to Murray at the last game show the mindset he has.
The Wolves are going to put more pressure on Denver in defense and Edwards needs to show he is that GUY.
I got so much respect for Tim ledger
The series is just tired up.I’m still picking T. Wolves. Coach Finch will be making adjustments. If not he will be going the route of Darwin Ham!!
People hate to accept it, but a healthy Celtics team is the best in the NBA. I don't see T wolves beating Boston.
The Eastern conference is weak. If Porzingis is healthy, the Celtics have a real chance. If Minnesota figures this out and wins this series, though, I’d install them as favorites.
Boston is not in the final yet. Why do you think they are a shoe in? They are the best team but sometimes the best doesn't always win. A key injury changes a series. Murray getting hurt changed the series. Cleveland had a chance to pressure Boston. We've seen Boston before shrink when they are pressured.
This black guy with glasses is the only one who didnt spit on Nuggets after 2 loses,and he is right,like always is right about moste things
Shaq wrote the Wolves obituary when he told Jokic he didn't deserve the MVP.
Minnesota winning tonight
Mavs not beating the Nuggets. They don’t know how to win the types of games you have to win. The game was winnable last night if they ran offense instead of step back 30 foot jumpers.
Boston is always the favorite. Then they fall.
If Denver wins this series OKC would be a better match up to take them down than the Mavs. I don't think the Mavs really stand a chance against Denver or the Timbies.
Celtics stink. If they're the favorites then just shows how dumb everyone involved is. They basically play on pure athleticism and jacking up 3s
UNC is such breath of fresh air on Media Takes. Thank God for this.
Always getting ahead of ourselves, aren't we?
Lebum post season preparing to get b slapped again next season in playins
Celtics are overrated. All they do is shoot from the three pointer. Jacking up bricks. Till they finally get hot.
The NBA gifted that 3 day rest for the Nuggets. Let's be real
Wgaf about bron, stfu about that dude
