Game balls go to:

Julius - Carried us in the first half.

Ant - Absolutely took over the game in the 3rd quarter and there was nothing Golden State could do about it. That was so fun to watch.

Finch - When Ant wasn't going nuts in the 3rd, the rest of our offense was humming and breaking down the Warriors with ease, which was not the case in the first half.

Jaden - Once again a masterful defensive performance and some big boy rebounds.

NAW - Got some great production from him off the bench.

We'll forget about Naz's bumbling turnovers and the final 4 or 5 minutes of the game.

Up 3-1 with a chance to close out at home!

Is anyone else starting to worry that Julius may *not* pick up his option for next season? He is definitely proving his value to the wolves and to the league, big time. He should definitely be able to get a better deal after this than that one year, $31m option. That’s a scenario I hadn’t worried about before this.

I have more faith in Connelly at this point! In Connelly we trust!

Assuming the Wolves want to retain Julius, I have always thought the most likely outcome would be an extension, possibly signed before free agency begins (ala NAZ a couple years ago).

The more interesting question is NAZ. What does he do? How bad does he want to be here? How bad do the Wolves want him here? They wanted SloMo back, but the price was too much.

It sure seems like Julius will be a higher priority than NAZ! (although they will want both back)

I think Randle will have some sort of pretty good extension offer from the Wolves and I think staying here and playing for Finch is going to make him chase the biggest offer plus there is still only so many teams that have money to spend.

Naz is a more interesting question...which seems kinda weird compared to just a few months ago. I could see the Wolves saying he will continue to get more minutes and decreasing Gobert's idk how much I would pay Naz. I really want him back but at what point could he be too expensive and they could look to fill his spot with some other players? It would be easier to think of letting him go if Donte was playing better offensively. The Wolves need another scorer and Naz helps with that.

Well that overall was an impressive win although it would have been nice if it had beening even more convincing. NAW had a nice game and Donte came to the party a little on offense. He continues to struggle finishing in the paint but I don't want him to stop one of his drives created a bucket on the rebound by Gobert.

Hopefully we can close out this series and get Edward's some rest although he looked more like himself in this game.

Randle is having himself a playoffs.

Interestingly/shockingly... tickets in GSW for Game 4 appeared to be the most affordable of any teams left in the playoffs.

That's interesting. What is the price for Wolves tickets?
