Nothing to Avenge Here! It’s Ant Man vs. Joker & The Suicide Squad: Official Timberwolves (#3) vs. Nuggets (#2) West Semifinals Thread

Omg this nikka ant is a killer

Not backing off of Nuggets in 7 prediction since that would require them to lose 3 games anyway lol and they play well on the road

As I said though, the winner of this series will win the NBA Championship barring any injuries

Watching Denver in that first round, they def got some issues
and Minny is a better defensive team
so we'll see

Incredible by Edwards and Reid

Leaning towards the Wolves tbh.

They don't have championship experience but you don't necessarily need that to beat a championship team. See OKC beating the Mavs in 2012. Wolves have enough experience in relevant areas: Conley, Gobert, and Slow-Mo, and the rest of them like Ant and KAT have experience dealing directly with Denver.

Wolves in 6 or Nuggets in 7. I think they split the first 2 games in Denver.

Or they may simply not be as good as last year, or MIN simply better.

Still way to early of course, but don't forget the 2011 Mavs vs the 2012 Mavs.

I brought that up earlier when I mentioned that MIN could pack them up the same way OKC did Dirk and em that year.

I'm just sayin. Game 2 will be very interesting if DEN doesn't get off to a hot start, which thru 6 straight playoff games they've failed to do so.

The MIN team showed a level of mental toughness vs PHX, closing them out in 4, that makes me think they're not the mental midgets i took them for. And that's lowkey been their Achilles heel.

It's a great win for Minnesota.

Ant is something else .

It might be a little early but the Nuggets are in trouble. This is the 6th straight postseason game in which they started off slow and played catch up until the luck ran out.

That championship fatigue/hangover is catching up to them...some people gonna say Murray only struggling because he's not 100% but I don't know he looks fine to me...just (mentally) on vacation renovating his brickhouse .

I know I ain't the only one who notice Chuck is tipsy af

 

[Rayzah]

Ok I must admit this dude reminds me of the late 90’s-2000’s era player. He has that Kobe MJ style of play and it’s refreshing to see. He is harder to guard because he doesn’t rely on threes like so many of the other younger guys

 

[The God Poster]

Chuck constantly stepping over the line

 

[360Waves]

nikkas love to get their jokes off bout Bron and LA but that was the most competitive 5 game series I’ve ever seen and the Lakers are objectively mediocre. Anyone thinking Denver can struggle like that and beat Minnesota is braindead

 

[Hoodoo Child]

The Nuggets have rim protection. Gotta get DeAndre going in this series

 

[010101]

wolves supporting cast outplayed the nuggets supporting cast*

 

[The God Poster]

Kenny pointed out what I said about Jokic. He seems to be pressing. You could see it at times last series

That pressure to repeat hitting hard

 

[valet]

Is this ngga Dirk reading a script? Why is he looking down when he talking?

 

[Jplaya2023]

This is a good loss for denver. This aint the lakers and old ass bron. You better bring your lunch pail and hard hat
