Absolutely amazing fucking effort. Down 3 of our top 7 players and we gave the #1 seed hell on the road in an elimination game.
Sucks that we have to play the what if game with all of our injuries but outside of game 1 we contended with a healthy #1 seed all series.
Also seeing 21 year old Ant turn into a superstar has been beyond amazing. He’s going to take us places fam!
I’m satisfied. We got a great game. To hang in there against the #1 seed on the road while severely shorthanded was impressive.
its the hope that kills you
Re sign NAW. that’s all. see y’all next year. awoooo
Fuck it I’m proud of the boys for that. Keeping it competitive against the 1 seed. Bring on next season!
Run it back let’s go and stay healthy and smart
I feel like I’m being gaslit with this rudy game. He definitely wasn’t good in the clutch but it wasn’t like he was bad in this game, and he’s definitely not the reason they lost
The wolves with 3 of their top 7 rotation players just couldn’t hang with the healthy nuggets at home. That’s it
I really wouldn’t melt down over this loss. They were in it
It wasn’t the season I expected but Jaden and Ant made it worth watching.
After Game 1, the Wolves fought hard even with big adversities (mainly referring to the injuries to Jaden and Naz). At least they didn’t get swept.
Ant is gonna be special in this league. Hopefully we’re successful with him
See y’all in the fall
All time Wolves “what if” if Jaden doesn’t punch a wall
Kat taking on his true role of being a number 2 in the last couple of games saved him from being traded.
I’m more surprised Ant didn’t make it than anything. Kids special. Gg. Fun season all things considered.
E: Ant
Ant was mad fun to watch
Tonight the Wolves showed they wouldn’t go down without a fight. GG boys.
Onward to the next season, and hopefully we’ll be healthy come playoff time.
Jaden McDaniels better have a stellar off season. Really feel like he cost us this series.
Proud of the team, they fought back till the last second. Hopefully the injury bug would let up next year.
Man next year KATs gotta play like that from the get go
Wolves will be back better! With all the injuries that we have, we will be better next season! NAW was a revelation.
If it had to end like that, Im glad Ant took the shot. The future is in his hands.
Fuck it wolves in 8
After seeing the nuggets subreddit I’m proud of ours. So much hate for a team that only won 1 game🤷♂️
Dont like living in a world where Bruce Brown shoots twice as many FT’s than Ant in a game. #1 better start getting the whistle next year.
They showed me enough to want to run it back next year. I was team burn it all down after games 1 and 2, but they fought back hard against a 1 seed.
All I want is one healthy season. A rejuvenated Gobert, a healthy KAT, more playoff Ant, a savvy Conley, and Jaden (no more Karate Kid wall punches).
This should’ve been a completely different series. In conclusion, Naz Reid. Wolves will be back!
Murray threw a punch towards a ref: no tech
Gobert throws a punch at the stanchion: instant tech
Jokic goes charging after a ref while cursing him out: no tech
Gobert runs away from a ref without cursing: instant tech
And none of this will be mentioned anywhere. I hate the NBA, I swear.
Nuggets fan here. I come in peace.
Just wanted to say you guys were gritty, scrappy, and tough. Fought like hell all series. But most of all I wanted to say how much I loved watching Ant. That kid is the real deal… a competitor on every square inch of the court. It’s nearly impossible to find a megastar with equal parts talent and hustle, but you’ve found him in Anthony Edwards. Y’all have a whole lot to be excited about for many years to come.
Thanks for a fun series.
