Phil Mackey and Judd Zulgad recap a WILD Game 6 blowout by the Minnesota Timberwolves over the Denver Nuggets! The Wolves force a Game 7 -- which will be played exactly 20 years to the day after their last Game 7.
@@mpberg Sacramento Game 7 has been the biggest game in Wolves history, but we know that season ended when Sam Cassell got injured during the Fakers series. We win Sunday we have a great chance to be NBA Champions.
Win or lose on Sunday, this has been a hell of a season and one of the craziest playoff series I've ever seen. There is absolutely no better sporting event than a game 7. Let's go Wolves!
This is what’s so frustrating about McDaniels, he is built to be not just a great defender but an effective offensive contributor I get he’s locked in defensively but 15-20 pts & a few rebounds is not too much to ask He acts as if he has no bag then you see the crossovers, the quickness on the drives, imagine if he added a hook shot or a little post up game
If the wolves can keep Ant, McDaniels, NAW, and Naz Reid, for the foreseeable future and they continue to develop, this team will continue to be top tier for a long time.
I think some of it is that there are games when he might go 15 minutes without a single shot as he isn’t involved in the flow. Which means he gets no rhythm. Other times I think he’s just gassed and it means his shot comes out goofy. I think people misjudge how much energy he’s expending on the defensive end and the impact it has on his offensive capabilities. Kinda like the inverse of how Minnesota made Jokic into an effective statue defensively in games 1-2 by making him spend all his energy on offence
Jokic said after the game the past couple games they didn't double him. That allowed him to be him and they got the W. I was asking why they didn't double him in those games... but now I know. The Twolves like to play with their meal before they munch it down. They did this throughout the season too. They'd give the opposing team some hope only to lock them down throughout the second half. They have the number ONE defense. Game 7 will look just like game 6. WOLVES IN 7 🐜🐺
This was like a game 2 tonight. However, the team need to prepare for a game like game 3 on Sunday because the officiating is going to be different. We need to prepare for a fight to the bitter end! Go Wolves!
The MJ - Piston analogy doesn't quite fit. With those Bulls teams, Pippen and Grant were rookies the first year they lost to the Pistons and MJ was an established star. So really as the young players developed around Jordan the team got better. This situation is fiip flopped. Ant is the star, but he's also the youngest and still developing while the supporting players are more established.
That shows how evenly matched and insane these teams are. If the one team does exactly what they are supposed to do then the other team can’t come close to competing
Game 4 was 115-107. Wolves blew it bad at the end of the half, giving up 8 points in twelve seconds on critical mistakes, turning a 7 point deficit into 15 at the half. They won both the 3rd and 4th quarters, but couldn't erase the 15 point cushion. In no way, was this a blowout.
The Denver nuggets received the STAND DOWN pregame email, save your energy nuggets good job! Fresh legs Sunday! Come on-25 for Jokic 😳nuggets by 10 Sunday. Game 7 lucrative 🍺🍿🥤🎰💯🤷
If this team gets in the right head space they can beat anyone. Problem is you don't know which team is going to show up. Hopefully the refs let them play game 7 and they come out hungry.
Sorry, this game changes nothing. It’s almost comical reacting to this game as if anything has changed in this series. Phil/Judd are being disingenuous pretending to be on the ledge on whether or not ANT can slay the dragon that is the mighty Denver Nuggets. It’s all fabricated. Dear Wolves fans, Don’t listen to these two. The anger and frustration you were feeling after Games 3,4, and 5 is legitimate. Both of these hosts know this as well. The narrative just 2 days ago was that Denver is unbeatable when they want to be. Game 6 changes nothing. And while Judd tries to not be too disingenuous, Mackey is terrible. Do not listen to him as he plays both sides of every preexisting narrative he can think of. Sincerely, Vikings fan ✌️ PS- Mackey it’s painfully obvious watching you stir the pot with your fake enthusiasm 👌
@@mickholohan4266 I DESPISE these "fans" (which are most, unfortunately) who declare the season over, then attack anyone who says otherwise (remembers Vikings "fans" declaring last season over after week ONE?) To OP, f off, and find a new team to cheer for (and take others like you), we don't need your cancer
