2023-24 NBA (Playoffs!) Thread: end of bench player on Knicks roster feeling self-conscious about not having crippling, season-ending injury (8 Viewers)

[Capella]

Murray is too smooth

 

[identikit]

Turning this off. It's over.

Ain't over yet

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Minnesota sports fans know how this all ends.

Sorry. It's just the way of things.

 

[msudaisy26]

Jokic with the throw down.

 

[Desert_Power]

Gordon is all over both ends of the court right now.

 

[SayWhat?]

Wolves get zero calls when getting to the hoop.

 

[mr. furley]

Minnesota really goes off the boil when Edwards isn't aggressive on offense

 

[msudaisy26]

Wolves get zero calls when getting to the hoop.

They are letting them play on both ends.

 

[identikit]

OY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Major]

 

[msudaisy26]

That was dumb.

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

What a final ten seconds.

 

[Desert_Power]

Fun half

 

[Major]

What a final ten seconds.

That was something. Nice 8-0 run to finish the half.

 

[Capella]

NBA players are such freaks of nature. How do you even do that.

 

[mr. furley]

Turning this off. It's over.

you're a seer

 

[msudaisy26]

This defense doesn't look like it did all year.

Has everything to do with Denver waking up. Which is a real bummer.

They woke up, but even they aren't this good. Shooting 60 something percent and hit 9 straight shots and they were all open looks.

 

[Kev4029]

Nuggets are good!

 

[identikit]

Nuggets are good!

Not 67% good

 

[identikit]

KAT is so so stupid

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Gordon basically looks like the predator at this point

 

[Zow]

Little Woz bailed to go play Mario kart.

 

[SayWhat?]

Scott Foster needs to GTFO.

 

[msudaisy26]

Little Woz bailed to go play Mario kart.

I would have grounded him.

 

[mr. furley]

pretty amazing that the NBA cutaway to commercial is just clips of dude's complaining to the refs

 

[identikit]

Big quarter upcoming for Wolves

 

[Kev4029]

Not 67% good

Dislike

 

[msudaisy26]

Why do teams ever double Jokic? Nothing good happens. It is like blitzing Aaron Rodgers in his prime.

 

[msudaisy26]

KAT is so talented, but so stupid.

 

[SoBeDad]

Kevin Harlan is one of the best.

this but the opposite

 

[Deamon]

I guess it’s not that crazy since they had a 47.9% chance each year

This doesn't seem right.

The worst record has a 47.9% chance to pick 5th? Nahhh.

 

[msudaisy26]

How do you leave Murray so open for a corner threw that he can pass it off the front of the rim to himself?

 

[Capella]

Then you come on here or check Twitter and it’s more people complaining about the refs.

[Frostillicus]

Denver is good.

 

[msudaisy26]

Gobert has had a horrible game on both sides.

 

[msudaisy26]

KAT fighting Gobert for the board. Lol

 

[identikit]

Gobert a close second to KAT on the exasperation scale

I wouldn't be shocked if he is an alien. That is how good of an announcer he is.

It’s the way it is. They are trying to disincentivize tanking…

Sure, when it was 103-93 and he said that the wolves were now at their closest at 90-81, it was the best

 

[Frostillicus]

Best of 3 with Denver having home court advantage. Let's go!

 

[Major]

Had a feeling that 8 points Minn gave up in the final 10 seconds of the 1st half would come back to haunt them. Lost by 8.

 

[msudaisy26]

Denver played almost a perfect game and Minnesota kept it close enough to think one run could give them a chance to steal it. Most teams lose by 25 plus to that performance.

"JOKIC SKEDADDLES HIS WAY IN TO THE LANE! PUMP FAKE AND THE TURNAROUND FOR TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! DENVER LEADS 4-2! MINNESOTA NEEDS A TIMEOUT!!!?!??!?!!!!"

 

[jvdesigns2002]

Best of 3 with Denver having home court advantage. Let's go!

When this series started, I didn’t think either team would beat the other in anything less than 6 games. I thought Denver had a 60-65% chance to win the series—but that the Wolves had a chance. We’re 4 games in so far—two blowouts by Minnesota, one blowout by Denver, and a tough fought win for Denver. Denvers experience came in handy in games 3 and 4 (as well as the leagues decision to not suspend Murray for game 3)—but as you said—it’s a 3 game series now. Let’s hope that Minnesota regroups so that we can see how these teams look against each other when both are playing at their best.

You forgot about sucking the gravity out of the building because he has no regard for human life, but a solid 8.3 on the attempt.
