Well, it wasn't pretty in that second half. But wow, Rudy fucking Gobert. What a game. He takes a lot of shit. Some of it deserved. But let's be honest, that dude just got us to the second round with that game.

It was a double! I called Wolves in 5 and I asked for a Rudy explosion tonight. Your welcome!

Glad I didn’t have to head back to Namibia to start a game 6 GDT…

Just think we don’t have the pleasure of watching Vando and Keonte George every night because they made the worst trade in history and traded for Rudy

So sad.

I agree with this take.

Also think they will be able to hide Mike more in the next series.

I'm repulsed by that game. The pro LA fervor. The shoddy to criminal officiating. Our terrible shooting. Our suspect coaching.

But I relish eliminating Lebron and the Lakers on their floor.

The ball movement and cutting in the first half when they pressured Ant was awesome. The offense in the second half was really bad. I guess the good thing is they'll have lots of tape to review for both "do more of that!" and "don't fucking do that!"

I can see Shannon or Clark playing a bit more in certain circumstances, but the great thing about having those top 8 guys is that even when you have guys in foul trouble (like tonight), you can rely on one of those top bench guys (Naz, Donte, NAW) to easily take up a lot of minutes. So I'm ok with the rotations at this point, but yeah, I could see either of those guys in the future depending on circumstances.
