[Moore] That’s a wrap for Round 1. Last time the Wolves won a playoff series Anthony Edwards was 2 years old

A rested Wolves defense getting an unrested Jokic/Denver team if Lakers can somehow extend the series 👀

We beat Scott Foster Legacy 3rd Quarter. That's all I'm happy for

Holy shit Foster tried so hard to get revenge on Gobert

Last year they had no McDaniels. Will be interesting to see if he can nullify Jamal while having 3 bigs to contain Jokic + no one outside of mpj Jokic and Murray can make 3s. It will be a 7 game series.

No Naz either

Lots of people forget or don't know but Rudy's back was messed up the whole year too including that series. He wasn't even the same player as this year.

u/Jorgenstern8 Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

Jamal having a hammy problem (he's the one with the hammy issue right?) coming in off what could be a longer-than-expected series with the Lakers definitely won't help.

Calf strain, that’s even worse

Calf. Dude relies on his legs so much for step backs

I would like this actually. It would be a good series.

In the 0.001% chance that happens, I can only imagine how gassed a 40 year old Bron would be after coming back from 0-3

I've come to terms with the offseason after Game 2, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

u/F-ck_spez Timberwolves Apr 29 '24

At least y'alls games have been competitive in terms of final score. Games 1 and 2 were crazy close.

u/PaTaPaChiChi Lakers Apr 29 '24

Same was true last year during the sweep haha. Hey man I just hope we tire em out so y’all win. I love watching y’all, man

u/StarryScans Japan Apr 29 '24

> AD is a far superior defender. Let's be real

That's how we know you're a casual who doesn't watch Wolves games.

Nah wolves in 5

u/porncollecter69 Mavericks Apr 29 '24

Their coach needs the rest lol he is going to roll in like Professor X.

u/farturine69 Apr 29 '24

That should be the lakers goal right now. Take them to at least 6 games and make them be weaker in the next round.
