@JonKrawczynski Cam Johnson and Tim hardaway the most annoying way to lose

Wolves threw a great opening punch, but Nuggets have to feel great leading by 1 without getting big scoring from Jokic or Murray. Minnesota has to shore up the defense. Denver shooting 61%. When they're not turning it over, they're scoring.

@TheDunkCentral So Kerr really not going to be coaching warriors next year cuz you know dray and Steph retiring together or at least after Steph retires he will do same but this seems like the things wrapped up.

Draymond Green believes Steve Kerr hindered his career and wonders why Kerr didn’t run any offensive plays for him during the Kevin Durant era 😳 “As much as he's done for me in basketball, a part of me think he's hindered me in my career and what I could have become. But what he's also helped me become. Like you got to take the good with the bad, man. You know, when I think of who I was offensively as a player and who I became, I think a part of that is due to him. I don't hold that against him. I'm forever grateful that he still put me in a position to be successful and that I could become Draymond Green despite my offensive role on our team. I don't sit and be like, ‘Oh man, like I f--king hate Steve because of that. No, it's one of my gripes. But if you're going to take one gripe and not be able to move past it for all the other things, then you're shallow as a person. You know, when [Kevin Durant] came from 2016 on, I have not had a play in our playbook. Not a single play that we run for me in our playbook since 2016. You think that would hinder someone as an offensive player? Of course. So at times, I go home and I think about my career and I'm happy as hell of what I've been able to build. But at times, sometimes I sit there and think, ‘What could I really have been if I stayed true to my game and what I really was?’ ” (Via nbcsportsbayarea.com/nba/golden-sta…)

@Courtsidespeaks Yeah I wanted a mid jump ball elbow to dick… Not even try to go for ball

Joan should have punched him, he not gonna play anyway just take the suspension

@JonKrawczynski More Shannon. 5-10 mins of Conley Lots better game needed from Rudy

Nuggets did what they had to do. Credit to Spencer Jones and Cam Johnson providing big lifts on offense. Just too many turnovers for the Wolves. Will see if the urgency returns for Game 6 on Thursday night

@B_HedtkeNBA More Shannon earlier

I think it’s kind of a big deal the Wolves forced Adelman to put Jokic back in. He and Murray will each play 35+ minutes on a night they thought they may get under 30. Neither have had a lot of gas in the tank in this series. Might be a different maker in Game 6.

@JonKrawczynski Looked like hardaway did it on purpose

Man Naz is down and looks to be in real pain, grabbing right ankle.

@JonKrawczynski We need more Shannon. More Kyle. And Clark even if he’s healthy

Nuggets have been the best 3rd quarter team all season. They come out firing here.

@kevin_nealon Bahahahahhahh

Uhhhhh, you got any gum?

@THEKIDMERO It’s cuz you know ball…

ALSO TWOLVES MY WESTERN CONFERENCE TEAM MY FAVORITE ASSORTMENT OF HOOPERS OUTSIDE NYK

MAN *FUCK* THIS BRO SMFH AND DIVO TOO?! WTF MANNNN 🫩🫩🫩 MY KNICKS / WOLVES FINALS BRACKET IS BUSTED

@DenhamsGhost Dude. Yes. So many night as a kid I watched multiple episodes of cheers before bed this entire song and picture backdrop is like engrained in my memory. Because it had to be real people with real stories.

I think about the Cheers guy now and then. Who is he? Why so smug? What was his life like? I know he could have never imagined his mug would eventually be seen by millions repeatedly on a contraption that beamed images and sounds through the air into people’s homes.

@jmthrivept Still think Rodriguez only takes touches from tuten and laquint was already third down back many times over Etiene last year…

The Jacksonville Jaguars had 4 opportunities to draft a RB (Jonah Coleman, Emmett Johnson, etc) today. They did not draft a RB today. But remember, they’re going to trade up for a RB on Day 2 so make sure to sell Bhayshul Tuten!

@The_Barftender Nene boom boom Hilario

JOKIC IS A BAD DEFENDER JAMAL MURRAY IS BAD DEFENDER ELWAY IS A BAD DEFENDER SHANNON SHARPE IS A BAD DEFENDER CLINTON PORTIS IS A BAD DEFENDER NENE IS A BAD DEFENDER

@_MNMuse Tried his best… Not tonight, Scotty!

Ridiculous officiating in Denver’s favor. 21 Free throws for Denver 9 Free throws for Minnesota Scott Foster assterclass

@JonKrawczynski @TheDailyWolves Possibly why out… “Stay away from team for two days”

Clark and Shannon both out. Wolves better hope that illness doesn’t spread

@dl0burna Yep. Also the whole Denver thing with Jokic is “play 75% on d to play 100% on O unless you’re Gordon or Bruce brown” been that way for a couple years now…. So if he gets them to commit more on d that O number going down

denver gon come out crazy aggressive on D and just get gashed cause they can’t slide feet

@BrettSiegelNBA @Tjonesonthenba A foul for every head flail I suppose? The 300lb man child that falls over with a light breeze is too precious for basic basketball contact

@Tjonesonthenba I mean… he fouled him probably 13 times in the fourth, but yeah I guess he stepped up. I’d argue Reid’s energy and offensive production during a key stretch was more vital tonight. He gave the team life when the game was slipping away with Jokic asserting himself.

Bro. Rudy Gobert took Jokic out of the game single handidly

@JakePaynting He was everywhere. The final play was the whole game in a nutshell There was a play earlier where Rudy threw him a an outlet pass but it was so bad and he volleyball bumped it to himself and tipped to ant He’s hustling always

I think that was the best game Donte has played for the Wolves?

@BillSimmons Also Tony brothers likely won’t ref another game in the series? Or he will just ref everyone cuz nba wants more chaos

Tremendous T-Wolves win. They really grabbed that game, right level of desperation. 2 concerns for Denver have to be: Gordon looks banged up already, and Joker’s 3s looked really bad. They’re gonna give him those if he keeps shooting like that.

@WillRagatz Just unreal phrase and then when they showed on broadcast and had guys on tv watch like “where? Where? Come on!….” At least they said it.

Foot to knee WHERE TONY?

@allthingsmn Seems like that game might cement a mn fandom for life. He seemed like he was literally all over the court. And always in the right place. The ending was perfect chef’s kiss

Lifetime contract for Donte should be in play. What a fucking gamer.
