Ant-agonizing the MVP! | Official Timberwolves (#6) vs. Thunder (#1) West Finals Thread

[BK The Great]

Maybe that’s why he can’t focus

 

[Ducktales]

Ik but im annoyed by everyone crowning him so early

I agree. He my favorite player, but they being too disrespectful all season to Shai like he not obviously the best player besides Jokic . That future of the nba shyt annoying af

 

[Anerdyblackguy]

What OKC doing is just madness:

What they did to Jokic

Jokic regular season
58/42/81

Jokic against OKC
48/33/81


Anthony Edwards regular season
45/40/84

Anthony Edwards against OKC (not including this game)
36/32/78

Didn’t count Memphis because Ja didn’t play

 

[Loose]

Ant needs a midrange game

 

[Stone]

Next steps for Wolves are finding suitable replacements for Gobert and Conley. Especially Conley

Ik breh and its stupid because the nba is way more accessible now you don’t really need a face of the nba

Should’ve kept KAT and traded Rudy

 

[Windows 91]

Missed the game, Shai 13/15 from the line

 

[Ducktales]

Dillingham?

Yea I’m not talking about a trade. We got some talent. But as much as I always been a fan of Conley, his time is over as being a primary point for us

 

[DoubleJ13]

I don't get how JDubb shot like 25% against Denver shytty defense but he lookin like a superstar against the Wolves so far this series. Makes no sense.

Nuggets played zone for like 90% of the series & he was usually matched up with Gordon. McDaniels is probably his worst matchup this series & he's busy trying to slow down SGA.

[KillerPups]

Wolves have some nice pieces never really seen McDaniels play like that that he a baller.

 

[Oldschooler]

Look how easy it is for him to score 30+ compared to Ant. Some of that is because you can swing the ball to SGA on the wing and he’ll just pull up a middy with no hesitation. He’s not always having to jackknife () through 3/4 dudes to score.

SGA is one of the best footwork finesse players we've seen since Kobe breh. Its not fair comparison. Ant is a straight up physical specimen he needs to play smarter on offense right now he's either drive hard or pull up for a three. I haven't seen him post his defender and hit a turn around jumper yet. As he ages that part of his game needs to mature.

Conley is done...he's not meant to play major minutes at this point in his career.

What's up with Dillingham tho...is he injured? I haven't seen him on the floor the entire playoffs

 

[Primetime]

Nugs made OKC scratch and claw until their tank hit E in game 7, these Minnesota games feel like the regular season for them so far. Not breaking a sweat just stomping on the Wizs and Jazzs.

Yea, even when things get tight down the stretch... vs DEN "tight" was being down 9 in the 4th and facing a 3-1 deficit if you lose

vs MIN, tight is being up 20 in the 4th and not falling asleep at the wheel
