I agree if feels much more this way than a few days ago. My expectations have grown a bit for the Wolves while also having in the back of my mind they still may be flawed/not good enough. They just need to win each series regardless of who they are or aren't facing. In general it's been a pretty good playoffs so far.

Re: Playoffs discussion
I agree with you guys...it's a lot of fun to even think about a championship as recent events have all fallen in our favor. Obviously we need to take care of the Warriors first, but I find myself cheering for teams I would rather face instead of just cheering for the team I like best. With that in mind, I'm cheering for the Knicks over the Celtics, the Pacers over the Cavs, and the Nuggets over the Thunder. All six of those teams are formidable and I'm pretty sure we would be underdogs in all series, but that's when we play best...and I would give us a chance against any of them.Monster wrote: ↑Sat May 10, 2025 12:53 pmI agree if feels much more this way than a few days ago.

Dead legs from the OT game with OKC and Denver. Just 17-8 after Q1!
SGA is such a foul merchant. I absolutely hate his game.

Nuggs have just 8 points 2 minutes into the 2nd quarter. They're shooting 8%!
Re: Playoffs discussion
They are hanging around though. OKC not doing much better. Still, seems like Denver may run out of gas in this series.SameOldNudityDrew wrote: ↑Sun May 11, 2025 3:17 pm Nuggs have just 8 points 2 minutes into the 2nd quarter. They're shooting 8%!
Re: Playoffs discussion
This zone against OKC is quite effective. I wonder if Adelman got that idea from when the Wolves deployed it against the Thunder.
Re: Playoffs discussion
Denver starting to make some shots now, take the lead.

I can't believe OKC is choking like this, historic regular season. I know they're young but they got some second round experience just last year!
Re: Playoffs discussion
It ain't over yet, but yeah, that regular season record is being put to the test.BloopOracle wrote: ↑Sun May 11, 2025 4:28 pm I can't believe OKC is choking like this, historic regular season. I know they're young but they got some second round experience just last year!
