Manifest Destiny: Claiming the West Starts with Taming the Wolves! Official Mavs (#5) vs. Timberwolves (#3) WCF Thread

[Hawala Man]

Reminds me of game 1 Lakers Nuggets wrt how well the Lakers were shooting but were up only a marginal amount

Wolves had the best half of Basketball from past 6 games only up 3pt points. McDaniels having a career game and you have Slow Mo producing.

I'm pouring honey on Kyrie

Them is the old man sneaks nikkas spose to wear after 40?

 

[Hawala Man]

If this game goes down to wire the Mavericks have the experience. The Wolves need to win the 3rd quarter or they are in trouble. You don't want a close game getting this type of production from guys like Slow Mo and McDaniels.

 

[Biscayne]

Mavs very happy about this half with how the wolves shooting

Uncontested open 3's. Edwards playing PG, and it's working.
Same formula they beat Denver with, when Jokic/Murray were going off and Ant was struggling.

dray will apparently never waste an opportunity to be a hater.

mavs perimeter d looking highly sus

Better matchup for the Mavs regardless. That Wolves blitz defense only emboldens the Mavs. You never do that on a pick and roll heavy team. It allows Luka and Kyrie to

1. Pass to Lively and Gafford for lob dunks
2. Pass to wide open 3 point shooters
3. Luka-ball with foul baiting
4. Kyrie straight up blowing by extra aggressive defenders

Draymond....don't talk about no inner Steph Curry. Kyrie hit a game winner over him. Kyrie channeling is inner self

 

[No1]

Kyrie not being on Olympic team should be treason

Who you taking off?

 

[gtj1982]

Didn't think coming into this game it would be the Mavericks with a layup line to the rim considering the Wolves' size. Unless Ant starts attacking the basket Mavericks will win this game at this rate.

He’s talking about moving without the ball.. Stop being a faggit…. Steph still swept Kyrie in 2017 so let’s not talk that dumb shyt

I mean it was mainly lucky shots by Jaden. KAT, Conley, and NAW have one 3 among them so far.

The Timberwolves shot the highest percentage from 3 in the regular season. I don’t think a lot of yall know that but you can look it up. If anything the fact that our 3 best 3 point shooters haven’t made shyt, that should tell you something. And we aren’t the shyt ass lakers. We’ll see how the third shakes out though.

Booker

 

[YaThreadFloppedB!]

what did Ant say about Kyrie ? I can’t find it
