Wolves vs. Nuggets is a Chess Match 

2:05 Michael "the posession end here" Porter Jr. living up to his name. How could he miss that swing pass when he was directly looking at it!

I’m a huge Timberwolves fan. Anyone who thinks they have any clue of what is gonna happen in game 7 is just lying to themselves. It could be an all time classic or a 30 pt blowout for either team. What a rollercoaster for these two fan bases.

I'm here for the slow motion, cool graphics, and a taste of North Korea

This has been the most interesting playoff series I’ve seen for at least a decade. For basketball lovers, i’m not sure it gets much better. I hope we can see this for the next decade because it’s awesome.

I love how you summarize main adjustments from all throughout the series just to realize help us realize this is one of the most tactical series ever

every media spent more time talking about how the DPOY 4x DID NOT stop 3x MVP Jokic... to me Mike conley absence was the biggest blow. Like you said he brings so much variety and poise in the offense, his pnroll with Gobert is almost always a guaranteed bucket, Gobert screens perfectly for him and he always find the good spot to hit his shots. They have a way more balanced offense when he's on the floor and Edwards can abuse his athleticism off the ball

Gobert is so good at defending the driver and the dunker spot at the same time

This is the finals IMO, very excitied for game 7 because whoever wins is very comfortable against the upcoming matchups.

Great contents. Kinda hard to watch these clips as a Nuggets fan, but it will definitely help to enjoy game 7 more deeply. Appreciate it

best series of the playoffs easy

You can bet that MIN will stick with this game plan in Game 7 since it worked so well. DEN will have to not only improve their shooting, but also come up with adjustments that work against MIN's defensive scheme.

Their defense was unacceptable in game 6. If shots aren’t falling, compensate it with good defense. Their defense has always been inconsistent. They can go from one of the best defensive teams in the league to the Hornets.

Nuggets vs wolves is essentially "when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object"

Literally my favorite basketball channel because these descriptions teach me so much and I love it

Whoever wins the series most likely will be the next NBA champs. Great analysis!

No hate just basketball analysis. GOATED channel

2:00 Incredible close out by Bite Bite. Already has the corner closed off when Porter gathers the ball.

Please dont leave out how INSANE denver shot the ball 3-5. With AG turning into prime kobe and the wolves 3rd best 3pt shooting team by %, going COLD. And they didnt even shoot the 3 well in game 6

Honestly man, amazing content. I have been subscribed for a while and your breakdowns and how quickly you turn them around amaze me. Keep it up.

Mix of that coverage so no one becomes comfortable and the Wolves got a Game 7 win.

As a wolves fan, I'm concerned with the plan. It works if they have a bad game, but they ain't having another bad game. So how will the wolves handle things if even half of those shots go in

Michael “never pass, never will” Porter.

KAT a defensive monster. Never seen him play like this even though coming into the NBA his defense was talked about a lot. This is some A+ stuff though

Can't believe this channel is still under 100k subs. RU-vid algorithm where you at 🤦‍♂?

Love the content brother keep it up!

Thanks for this complete video!

W vid, great series. Love the content

Gobert hitting a fadeaway equals an automatic loss 😭

The Nuggets have had multiple games this season where the entire team seemingly out of nowhere just kept missing wide open shots for no reason whatsoever. It's so jarring that I can't tell whether it's a skill issue or a luck issue.

Checkmate for the wolves.

This is a great analysis, best I've seen for the series so far! I still believe in the Nuggets!

This game is completely different if nuggets shooters don't brick all night. Jamal was what like 3/14 in the third at one point? Unacceptable

Guarantee the nuggets are gonna be frying from three now that they’ll be looking for the skip passes. I’m interested to see how the wolves are gonna counter this knowing they’ll know this

Clutched up fr 🙏

They finally “HEDGED THE SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN”

Crazy that Game 1 was probably the closest matchup in the series so far

This series is the result of the two best coaches in the league (Finch and Jokic) gameplanning magnificently

right before bed perfect timin

One recipe for a Nuggets loss all season long is when 50% of their shots are 3's into the 3rd quarter. That usually means the double on Jokic has been successful and the perimeter shooting is bad enough defenses don't change. In other games if they're hitting greater than 38% from 3 eventually teams will have to adjust their defenses then the Jokic-Gordon offense takes over. But to blame MJP or KCP for the threes isn't the entire story as the one wildcard the Nuggs possess to offset poor 3's is JM going to work. Unfortunately for him he's being defended straight-up by a player who is ascending to a superstar two-way player (Ant). Edwards play could be the deciding factor on who wins G7. Its too bad JM doesn't seem capable to match him because that battle could be a dream storyline in G7.

Great analysis, you really see the game well. The nuggets should have conleys man screen for the ballhandler in the backcourt to relieve pressure. And have him screen for murray off ball to get conley into the jokic/murray 2man game.

Amazing content

I love ur breakdowns I really think you should start predicting who’s gonna win😭

Great analiysis!

It’s honestly sad this ain’t the finals. The system is set up weird where the West is so much better then the rest.

I've never watched much NBA, just college basketball, this is the first series I've ever been excited for, the Minnesota Timberwolves instantly turned me into a fan!

Great coaching on both sides

Porter taking the shot with everywhere player open "I am Inevitable"

goat production

Do you guys think it will be positve or negative that we already know what the nicks look like when playing all their minutes for the up coming knicks vs pacers game?

My favorite channel

Here for the slow mo and cool graphics. I hope he also says something about this

FINALLY a video on it

Murray and Porter being duds and not being able to score to save their lives + whole Denver forgetting how to rebound defensively = ggwp.

Good content. One of the things you can improve upon is adding in consideration of the scheme employed by Denver when they're ahead vs behind. That was not done well in this video, while many others things were.

Coach Malone takin notes

Hi hoop venue big fan of this channel but I want you to make a video about McDaniel who is ex factor for Twolves and is his offense gonna improve

Defensive breakdown videos are top tier

I'm not sure if it's true, but it could be since the NBA IS entertainment, but I heard there was a script already in place and the Nuggets lost 108-102 with Jokic scoring 25/8/12, Murray with a sad 13 4/16 shooting. Karl and Edwards let the team and two huge posters in the first half by 2 elite dunkers on Sunday. Thats just what I heard though, very sad though.

Yall made the assistant coach look like a potato in the thumbnail 😭

11:08 Might be the silkiest three ball ever shot

As a chess player, i tell you, this series are more like a poker match 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Come on, if not for Joker i dont even watch it. 🤦‍♂️

For Denver to play this bad again is impossible. But I think they will change a lot for tonight. Nikola is going to be the point guard, and everyone else will be cutters. If they start making shots, Wolves are going to have tough time keeping up. Close everyone else and let Ant do his thing and they will not be as lethal as they were in game 6.

Who u got in g7?

Nuggets didn’t have enough cap space for Made Shot on the roster

LET’S GO WOLVES!!! 💪🏀🐺

As a die hard wolves fan..we cant expect den will miss that many 3pt shots in gme 7...

13:42 What is KAT thinking here, walking off the court in the opposite direction to getting back on D? Sheesh. I'm curious about your declaration that the Nuggets went away from having Gordon bring up the ball. Do you have stats on that or are you just relying on the memory-eye test? Do you have any theories as to why they would do that? (Same questions as to the abandonment of focusing the Denver offense on the empty corners.)

Game 7 is going to be fire!!!

This was the best in-depth analysis of this series I've seen/read so far. Fk the national "experts" It was funny how too many of em just now noticed KAT on Jokic, when he's been doing it the whole series? The adjustments for game 7 for both coaches will be really interesting. Will Jokic shoot 10+ 3s, with the way Minnesota is now just giving him the shot? Which Murray will show up this time? What it just a bad game for MJP? What will Minnesota's Off look like? A LOT of ISO plays for Ant + some P&Rs with Conley? How will they get KAT (or NAZ)? more involved? IMO, I'm gonna guess for Denver, a lot more Gordon+Jokic P&Rs for Denver and off ball screens for MPJ. As well as constant Double teams on ANT. And for Minnesota, a LOT more shot attempts in the paint, hopefully leading to more FTs, especially ANT. And unless guys like Gordon start making outside shots, they won't stop doubling Jokic either. My prediction: 102:108, first real close game and Minnesota wins G7

As a wolves fan, I'm nervous for game 7..

Best defense Timbs played all year tbh

I like your analysis and keep watching for the reason games. Denver got a lot of free space to throw in game 6, but the hit rate sucked, I hope they can recover that since the game became boring with a huge lead.

Murray has been off all playoffs gordon 2nd best player easliy

Has there even been more unpredictable series? If Nuggets are able to recover their offensive set, will they also lock down on D? Wasn't it a letdown in game 6 as the Wolves gave in game 3? Now we get one game for all the marbles, so are the Wolves on the road going to be able to shoot with that pressure? In game 5 they looked so tight in Denver and Nuggets couldn't miss. If both teams can feel comfortable on offense, expect an all-time great game. OT would be bonkers but hard to imagine based on very convincing outcomes previously.

I just feel the wolves will come up short this year, Joker will scorch them from three if they leave him open in game 7. Why? Because hes the best player in the world right now and thats that what the best do when it matters most. Its crazy to say after they won the first two games in Denver but I just think the wolves are still a young team that isnt ready to beat the defending champs in a road game 7. I just hope its a good game and not a blowout! I think whoever wins this series beats the thunder and should be well-favored vs mavs. Denver is the favorite period but I'd even take the Wolves or Mavs over the Celtics in the finals

The stat doesn't help Minnesota - If Denver will shoot significantly better than 19.4% (which is reasonable to happen), Jokic will get some help, the double team will be less effective and the whole game becomes different Anyhow, good series - after game 7 everyone will be smarter

These dumb adjustments are what makes you think the nba is rigged. First, the wolves putting gobert on jokic instead of towns, now the nuggets abandoning the point gordon scheme. Like wtf?

It’s May 18th morning. I’m calling it now, game 7, Denver gonna win. Cuz nba wants joker vs Luka

so basically game 6 was the time where nuggets players and bench had to step up in scoring since since jokic was getting clamped, but they failed miserabely

With game 6 in my mind I really can't see Wolves loosing, and on the other hand I believe so much in Big Honey, it's hard to predict game7

WE ARE LIVING IN NORTH KOREA

It's a good thing the roleplayers were so unaccurate because now denver has to adapt.

game 5 and game 7 is all that matters for denver they know wuz up. wolves are just supporting team.

Who here currently lives in North Korea?

I stopped watching the game early, it seems like nuggets blew the game more than the Twolves playing so great. The nuggets scoring problems seemed to lead the lack of effort on defense. Game 5 defense by the nuggets was the best of the playoffs this year. If the nuggets play that defense and knock down shots I see them winning, but if they dont make shots the pressure may start mounting again. I wish they had more options on the bench. They really could take advantage of a mismatch for Jokic on the 4 with a knock down shooter at the 4. Sure Porter could slide in that spot but he can't hit anything this series and Gordon can hit those shots but not every game or even most. The lack of bench really hurts them this year. They definitely need to find more pieces in the off-season. Could you imagine Paul George signing with nuggets. Then Porter or KCP could come off the bench or try different variations with PG at4. They could use someone like that this series. I don't know if Gorbert could stay in with a 4 like that. They d have to bench him most of the time.

the amount of likes = the amount of pushups I will do today

My personal opinion, despite the Wolves defense on Game 6, Nuggets can’t just make a bucket

Diddy do it?

So pretty much is Jamal Murray plays point wolves win 7 I joker or Gordon plays point dey can't do shi 😭

bro making predictions for the g7 is impossible haha

Jamal needs to work on his self-control

a bit like OKC let Mavs shoot 3 as they want and open but missed?

We will have to wait until the game starts to see how the refs are going to dictate the game. If they let the game be physical (and by that I mean that not every contact is a foul) then the Wolves have a big chance of winning. If they don't and just let Jokic off the hook for throwing elbows and moving during screens then the Nuggets will win.

NORTHKOREA

*MORE NORTH KOREA PROPAGANDA. WE'RE ON TO YOU, KIM JONG VENUE.*

who is winning this game tho?

Combination of great defense and poor shooting. Can't wait for game 7! Should be a great ending to this amazing series! Go Wolves!!

WHOEVER WINS THIS SERIES WINS A CHAMPIONSHIP...

Denver can't play for those threes with that kind of accuracy.
