Series Thread: 2) Nuggets vs 3) T'Wolves

[trojanfan12]

What are you allergic to the truth or do you think Draymond got suspended for game seven?

He didn't lose to the Cavs, the Warriors lost to the Cavs. And like I already mentioned G.S. had two opportunities to close the series out after Draymond returned.

Doesn't fit the narrative.

Game six and booted from game 5

He is in the Caitlin Clark thread, complaining about someone wanting him to be punched in the face now.

Worst playoff loss in Nuggets history. That was some ass-whoopin'. No matter who wins this series, I'll always remember (hate) game 6. Either the Nuggets respond at home with some angry fire or they are so shell shocked that they can't recover. Truly unpredictable. Even playing at home gives me no comfort. If Ant and KAT continue at their game 6 pace and they get contribution from their role players, the Wolves will be incredibly hard to beat.

Nuggets have to have Murray with a great game and either MPJ or Aaron Gordon need to go off.

If Draymond didn't play in game six of the '16 Finals how did he score 8 points, grab 10 rebounds & dish out 6 assists?

Nugget are going to go into game 7 extremely motivated. Wolves can not treat game 6 as anything but an outlier and bring everything they have for the last game.

That had to be the ugliest Nuggets game I've seen since I started following them during the 2010-11 season when I moved to CO. It was tough to watch. Actually turned it off at some point in the 3rd.

Nuggets are 3-1 in Game 7’s but Minnesota is the only team I believe to never lose a game 7 but they’ve only played 1 time so that’s not really a good indicator.

Also game 7 will determine whether the Nuggets finish this series 2-2 at home or 1-3 which for one of the best Home teams in the NBA is surely disappointing.

Musta been game 5. But you knew that

1. Nope.

I knew exactly which game Draymond was suspended for. You got mixed up.

 

[Duffman]

Most interesting thing to note however is two of those three losses have come from teams who started 2-0 but whose wins were on the road and lost game 7 on the road.

His % has been great but he was a non factor in game 6. Typically when the Nuggets win games, it's because Jokić does his thing, Murray has a good game and either MPJ or Aaron Gordon have a big game. If the Nuggets don't have that third component, they're beatable, even at home.

The only other option is to have the bench have the game of their lives. Braun, Holiday, Jackson could also be the missing piece.

Will be interesting to see how both teams adjust after the last game. The Wolves smothering defense takes control or the Nuggets find a way to create more spacing. Ball Arena will be rocking, no doubt. As nervous as I am, game 7's are what we sports fans look forward to. I'm sure it will be a tightly contested game. The team that emerges victorious has a high probability of representing the Western Conference in the NBA Finals.

Montalban has never been strong with knowing stuff

Of course it was game 5. Game 4 the Warriors won, that was the game he overreacted to LeBron teabagging him. He missed game 5. He was there for both losses in game 6 and 7.
