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

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

We'll see how Minny looks playing against a balanced team for once.

None of this playing against the Lakers with a 40-year-old wing as a defensive anchor because they don't have a frontcourt, and none of this playing against the Warriors without their best player (who'd otherwise be stuck in the lottery) also too without a frontcourt.

Would you please just shut the fukk up already?

Ain't got shyt to say now huh fakkit?

Part of this loss is what happens when you don't trust your scouting and depth during the regular season. Clark, Terrence Shannon Jr, Rob Dillingham ( he's young so i do understand the hesitation)

Damn man, I was in college last time these nikkas were in the final round

 

[Blessings]

That's a good point, those guys you mentioned get hacked a lot and refs miss those calls, I'd add Steph in there too as he gets mauled running around and coming off screens guys getting physical with him that way.

I can’t believe I forgot Steph…another great player that doesn’t get a fair whistle.


The NFL equivalent would be QBs
Cam, Vick, Lamar, and Burrow get killed without the defense getting penalized.

Kenny Pickett, Josh Allen, and Mahomes…
In soccer Luis Suarez
are more aligned with SGA/Luka/Brunson. Exploiting officiating advantages by cheating

Hes not like that, ive realized.

All those comparisons...hes not even a Wade type talent.

Last few minutes Richard Jefferson said Ant was a "Kobe, Jordan, Kawhi, Lebron" level player...





They forcing Ant to wear a crown he hasn't shown he comes close to deserving.

 

[Methodical]

Seriously, why the NBA had to add MVP for the Conference Finals?, I don't like this idea.

 

[Pegasus Jackson]

The Thunder really just didn't bother at all in that game 3 which looks hilarious in retrospect

Gentlemen's sweep.

I like Indiana in that underdog role.I think they'll have a puncher's chance.

One thing you gotta give credit to the OKC fanbase is they're college level engaged

I actually like their fanbase....they still applaud and embrace Russell Westbrook and they come out and engaged.

Also, they not openly racist like Celtics and Jazz fanbases.

nikkas got disposed of

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Chet Holmgrem about to get a ring before Zion and Wemby is disgusting….

I can’t wait for Flagg to in, be the face of the league and save us

So what does minny need to do to compete next year.

1..you have to put Conley and Gorbert out to pasture

2. Find a taker (sucker) for Randle

3. Find a PG

4. Tell Ant to watch film of 96-98 jordan and 08-10 Kobe and work on that midrange

You going too far. Continuity is the key, not making changes again. Extend Randle. Let NAW walk in Free agency. Clark and Terrence Shannon Jr are waiting. I'm on the fence with Naz cause it would be a huge loss . I'm ok with Rudy staying. YOu know what you're getting. If someone offers a great trade offer for Gobert you listen and take it

4x in 9 days

Congrats to OKC

I HATE SGA
He's the worst thing to happen to NBA basketball in decades.

The foul baiting, the flailing, the flopping AND having success with it is a stain on our game.
Leading scorer because defenders back off knowing he gets all the calls. Great mid-range shooter, so it's easy work to get 30.

That said: he is playing very well today.

Too unlikable and simply not skilled enough (nearly no highlight moments) to be the face of anything but flopping, but he can play.

Lebron started it.. Steph uses it too

Zion ain't even play in a playoff game which is nuts
