The cleanest screen? Haha come on bro, I agree that it's probably not worth calling but Jokic was moving slightly. If the refs are going to be consistent then that's a foul but they're not consistent and we all know that.
I agree it shouldn't be called but he was actually moving slightly. If the reffing is going to be consistent then that's an illegal screen but we all know it isn't consistent. Denver have too many fans to call something like that. Only smallest market teams with no fans would get that called.
I understand you're a nuggets fan but don't be salty because the wolves beat you without the refs help. Jokic won mvp and the world saw how the refs helped the nuggets win.
@@yaroruss6277 Talk about obtuse: the Wolves were allowed to play rugby at a basketball game Monday. It’s easy to play defense when you can hack, check and grab as much you like. And then on offense “go ahead, just run people over, no problem “
@@yaroruss6277lmao so soft and delusional wolves were able to play the most intense over-aggressive fouling constantly defense game 1/2 and refs called almost no fouls on them. Now a few fouls are called on yall game 3 and refs are on nugs side? 😅😅😅
Keep lebron out your mouth, bum. Jokic been doing nothing but flopping and getting away with sneak fouls the whole series lol. He's wasn't out there getting locked up like Jokic or muray, or tossing towels at refs and heating pads on the court to injure players because his ass got bullied to the bench with good defense. F outta here with that nonsense lmao.
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hi_2lEw5CHI.html what lebron james impression? new to basket ball just because someone that's been in the league for a very long time your considered a grandpa at his age in nba terms?
Correct. Problem is there are so many Denver bandwagon fans (defending champs always have tons of bandwagons) that just defend their team no matter what that it'll never be known widely what happened. Especially because the Timberwolves have a small fanbase compared to other teams and get very little mainstream media support.
Such a mental game. And this happens EVERY PLAYOFFS. A team bludgeons another team in the first 2 games and everyone calls "SWEEEP". Three days of rest and adjustments. A calf heals. A couple players' shooting touches cool off and a couple get hot and you've got a completely different look and that's why the NBA has the greatest playoff system in sports.
This pattern happens so much because the league makes more money from a longer series. Also, Vegas profits a ton from all the people placing bets on the team that goes up 2-0, only to lose the next two. It's all about money in the end. That's why I predict Denver wins. They have a much bigger fanbase than MN does.
The team with the most money behind them seems to end up winning disproportionately often. And Minnesota is historically the scapegoat team of the league so the odds of them being allowed to make it past the 2nd round is close to 0.
Nothing burger! Clean screen. Tired of these cry baby players. It was bad in soccer with players flopping and acting while on the the ground and arguing in the refs face. Now you see 80% of NBA players flailing their arms in the air after contact or crying to the refs for a whistle. Then these same clowns go before the media post game complaining the refs dont let them play physically. 🙄
It was knee to knee. That hurts a lot. No one was wanting a foul called, the Timberwolves were talking to the refs about something else completely - not the screen.
Naz Reid pushed joker into that guy. Anyway he should stop running into Joker and go around. He kept running into joker all night trying to bait foul calls. First 2 games were 90s rules and then the refs went back to current calls tonight and this is the result.
Jokic didn't stick a knee or elbow out. Yes, Walker brushed past him, but this looked like any other screen. On the slow-mo, I just don't see what could have caused an injury. Not a jarring impact at all.
@@jakekatellaCorrect! Watched it slow and slower-mo, magnified and under the microscope! Easy to see Critter T'wolf laid his own self down, acting like he got hit by a truck_ it was an 'inch an hour' hip movement that he glanced off and with no disturbance to Jokic uni.
Hahaha that's rich coming from a Denver fan. Remember what the Denver fanbass did after going down 0-2? They whined so much that we saw an unprecedented change in ref style to extra soft - DURING THE PLAYOFFS when playoffs have always been reffed more physical in all NBA history
No one said it was a foul. Idk what all these Denver fans are talking about. It was knee to knee, which is very painful. The Timberwolves were talking to the refs about something else entirely, not the screen.
This is the most legit screen there is. Seen far more questionable ones in NBA highlights. Having said that, Anderson dislocated a rib and disc in his spine after this play. He's now listed as "questionable IQ" for Game 4.
Welcome to the Playoffs 2024 style, a blatant flop by a fairy followed by complaining by said flopper, followed by a T and then a RU-vid post by someone who enjoys click bait- ing people 😂
Lmao talking smack when you needed the NBA to save your season is laughable. Look at these frauds acting like they didn’t need the NBA to cheat for them. 🤣🤣🤣
That was knee to knee. Very painful. No one wanted a foul called, the Timberwolves were talking to the refs about something else completely - not the screen.
@@claytongiampaolo7848 Left knee to left knee. I watched it at 0.25 speed too. Anyway the point is nobody was complaining about wanting a foul on that screen.
No one said it was a foul. It was knee to knee which is very painful. The Timberwolves were talking about something else completely to the refs, not the screen.
And regarding Game 2, the Timberwolves played elite defense in that game. I understand Denver fans (bandwagons) have started this narrative that MN was committing fouls on D... but it just doesn't hold up. It was just elite defense which isn't illegal. Seriously, try finding an actual foul on D from MN from that game. There aren't any.
I didn’t see much there but other plays the MVP is getting away with moving screens. He got caught a couple of times last night but he does it all of the time.
Take a page from kobe book and off the first screen jokic sets next game run hard into his chest and deliver that message ...some of these new age ballers so soft on both fronts ..mentally and physically
