Drey drey trollin, lakers were legit 2nd best team in west
Jokic is better then you
I don’t think y’all realize how good of a matchup wolves are. Tough series
Dray is upset because Jokic and the Nuggets will forever be synonymous with three things he dislikes
A) European dominance
B) winning titles organically without recruiting superstars like Lebron and the Warriors did.
C) Tarnishing Lebron's Legacy by sweeping and gentleman sweeping him in consecutive years
I won't rule the Nuggets out. They got a lot in the bag to win in the playoffs. T'Wolves will be a great matchup though.
Timberwolves got more to prove than The Nuggets let's not be prisoners of the moment I do agree the wolves had better bench but Denver knows how to make adjustments despite not having a deeper bench I have Nuggets in 6
I hate Lakers, and not a huge fan of Drey, but Wolves in 7. Bench and depth is difference key matchup Porter vs McDaniels.
Denver wins minisota easily. I woukd be.suprised if wolves win even one game
The key to beating the Nuggets is making Jokic the primary scorer and keeping his assist numbers down. Wolves have the personnel to do that and have proven already that’s the winning formula to beat them.
Wolves all the way
The Nuggets are not in trouble!! You are with the warriors
No they not
Denver in 4
better solve gsw trouble than focusing on denver trouble 😂 they still good and gsw sucks rn 😂
I was rooting for the Lakers but I don't think they would have been the Wolves.
ant might break jamal murray's legs for real
Do you truly believe the Lakers series could've been flipped 4-1 in favor of them? Because I don't buy it. Nuggets playing with their food, although they don't look as sharp as last year.
Damn Denver fans cocky.
Dude nuggets fans are so sensitive lmaooo dray just point out why he think the nuggets are in trouble and is the damn bench 😭😭 yeah the nuggets have the best starting 5 but after than oh man that think stink bad.
We shall see mate. We shall see
They match up so well.
Dude that's how how life works. The series could have been flipped but it didn't. Nuggets are going to repeat and as much as you wish they lose so you guys can feel great. They will win
I think they are in trouble… But not because of their bench.
You guys don't get it ! Joker is a badass and will win ..green is a straight up clown
Draymond, I appreciate the love from another wolves fan. Especially after we whooped your guises butts during the regular season. Taking it like a champ and passing the torch down.
I want to thank you for it using the promotion at the end so all of us can just skip through it because none of us will watch it anyways. Well done, very well done sir! 👏
Why do you hold the mic
The wolves will be a different time for Denver 😊then playing LA 😊wolves will beat nuggets 😊😊
I would take Reggie Jackson over morris and pwat over slomo. Reed is a better back up than Jordan but come on man slomo and Monte morris not finna be the X factors.
He’s right the nuggets are in trouble cause they aren’t playing a weak ass g league 8th seed in the finals again.
Wolves didn’t have Naz, McDaniels and only had Kat for 30 games last year. The end is near nuggets. Wolves in 6. Ant winning 8 of the next 10 titles. Sorry NBA
I don’t think DEN will be able to consistently win the boards thus they’ll likely lose this in 6. I think MIN gets game 1. Tough defense matchups across the boards. I’d let Joker eat all he wants but Jaden McDaniel will be MPJa grill. Gobert can play on Gordon and Gobert will win those boards. AE can switch on and off who he wants.
Dray is a defensive minded guy. And Minnesota's defense is elite. Basically its very similar to the Warriors. Defensive dominance with one offensive Juggernaut. It was Curry when the Warriors did it. It is Edwards for the Wolves this year.
Denver had a net rating of 24.5 in 135 minutes, which is best in the nba, while minessota has a net rating of -13.1 in 145 minutes, which is good for a 27th place. I got Denver.
Hey you crush LBJ is out of the playoffs.
You guys literally sold your 6 through 10 to win 2 rings using 1 through 5 so stop saying that. Secondly did you think you could actually win a ring this year with how you guys were constructed as is or did you just say all that to boost morale? And if so, can you list players you would trade for picks or contracts you would buy hypothetically. I don't want to wait 5 years down the line for you to answer this question.
No one has an answer for Jokic or Murray. They didn’t even play their best ball VS the lakers and everyone knows they can play better than that. The only difference is naz Reid and McDaniels. Series went 2-2. They are evenly matched just hope MN has good offensive games because they can go cold and forget how to play lol
Go Wolves!!!!
Donkey is slow
Lol Wolves are still growing. Nuggets are grown and in their prime. Nuggets in 6
Keep underestimating the Nuggets. Love it. Like Denver bench minutes have ever mattered. Those dudes are playing with Jamal or joker at every moment. I love Monte but you’re gonna say Twolves are deeper bc the got a dudes that don’t even play?! Nugget hate forever.
brother kyrie and luka are there worst nightmare they can beat the timberwolves easly
lol people are getting so triggered but he made some good points , he didn't say it was a lock just that it's going to be tough series for the nuggets which it will be
Wolves 6
He is right, Nuggets will need a lot of luck in order to repeat last year's success. (by Nuggets fan).
Record technical fouls on his resume could hurt him 😂😂…but the way Draymond can break down a game, he should be a head coach one day. He might have do the assistant coach role, get the "Mr Tech" stink off 😂…
Why green needs to shut the hell up and go fishing?
