Sounds like Denver is SeaDue.

I think Jokic gets way too much hate for his defense, he's a big smart guy and quite effective.

I'm actually rooting for DEN tonight and the rest of the way. MIN hasn't made the playoffs in 13(!) years, try again!

I've watched like 15 nuggets games this year and his defense has been nothing short of an abortion in at least 13 of them. It is even worse when a team actually tries to exploit it which most teams don't they just do their thing without consideration.

Rubio played like 75. Just sayin

Based on what metric? With that being said, his finals opponents have been brutal.

Michael888,

The real scoop was that the Cavs shopped Kyrie.

Then Kyrie found out and demanded out.

There were reports out there that they were looking into it. Whether they were true or not is a different story but I’m sure it was part of the reason he asked out. The other reason I’m sure is how Lebron treated his other teammates this year.

If you have ever read anything from the Minnesota fans on this forum you would know they deserve every year of TWolves sadness.

Cavs trade Kyrie and likely end up in the same spot. They're going to lose in the finals in either case.

Guess Kyrie didn't matter that much.... ^^.

Might not necessarily be on this forum, but for how many years have we been told "this is the year MIN makes a leap into the upper tier of the WC" and they never do. I'm tired of it, flounder where you flounder properly.

Why what did we ever do?

I know people were salty when you came into the thread to celebrate Ricky Rubio's torn ACL but that was the reaction you were looking for so...

Last year Towns styled all over him and Jokic had what dood called "a mentally weak game", but those of us that have raised toddlers know it as a temper-tantrum.

The last two times they played Joker was coming off an ankle injury, and he's been straight fire as of late. I don't think we'll see Joker on Towns either way, it'll be Millsap who's been an elite defender for years.

Minny is 8-8 since JB went down and has a -1PD with an 8home/8road split. Denver is 9-7 with a +2.4PD with a 6home/10away split. Denver even without Harris has been playing pretty well given their difficulty of schedule.

I thought the line seemed fair.

[edit] Joker since the ASB - 34 minutes, 21.6 pts, 54/48/85 splits, 11.4rbs, 6.2 ast, +6.8 Net.

That's cold Thay3r.

The obvious answer is we want OKC/SAS to miss. The former for the lolPresti, the latter because they are just going to be boring to watch imo.

I hate that miserable fat fukc too.

I'm pretty tickled that things are playing out so that the wolves will either end up top 6 or miss. Very little chance of 7th or 8th because we have all the tiebreakers.

Very disappointed that hypothetical resolution does not somehow end in rock paper scissors

Harden just put a scare into Houston fans faking a hammy-pull. It had me fooled, my first thought was "**** now they aren't going to beat OKC".
