so as absurd as this game has been, Denver only has 107 points, which is not going to cut it against the rest of the west

Pohl posted:so as absurd as this game has been, Denver only has 107 points, which is not going to cut it against the rest of the west that is probably true but a closer game leads to more points overall as the teams trade fouls and free throws. depth is supposed to be a weakness for denver and they extended during their second unit minutes. wolves shot 30% from three, nuggets shot 40% from three. wolves collected 38 rebounds, nuggets collected 54 rebounds. nuggets were #1 in the league in field goal percentage this year. it's ABCs of basketball, but to beat the nuggets you need to out shoot them or out board them and the wolves didn't show.

Wolves have it in them to go insane for at least 2 games this series, I don't expect them to win the series but they will shove Denver into a corner. I appreciate the stats, not even joking, but that is the nuts and bolts of why they lost, I'm still not firmly believing that the Denver defense shut them down. Another game or two will show the reality. The wolves are just hit and miss but they have the potential to be incredibly dangerous. Would I want to play them (the Wolves) in a 7 game series? Yes, Yes I would.

The problem with the Wolves is and has always been Chris Finch. Doc Rivers would be a better coach!

I had such positive goodwill towards KAT after covid ravaged his family and how hard fans were on him in 20-early 21. seems so long ago, now

just playoff guys, in no order: Harden, Tatum, Giannis, Butler, Ant, Sabonis, Kawhi, PG, JJJ Giannis is probably my favorite even though he did attempted murder on Sixers venue staff this season and of course Boban

KAT isn't a hateable guy, he's just been asked by the team to be The Guy and he has a personality and overall game that is manifestly unsuited to it. He can't take over a game like Ant is working on being able to do and like true #1 guys can do. He's the quintessential #2 max contract guy. He's absolutely worth a max, but he's not gonna lead a team to a championship as the #1 guy.

A valid criticism of him is that he whines at the refs instead of getting back on defense. He doesn't get calls like some superstars, which is a valid gripe to have, but he needs to not let that then gently caress up how he plays after.

AnimeIsTrash posted:every star does that He lets the lack of calls get into his head. I've watched a bunch of games where he underperforms because he didn't get calls early so he stopped being aggressive and then just floats around the perimeter all game rather than attacking the basket.
