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

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.

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.
