The league really needed a healthy warriors team with Steph, Draymond, and Jimmy. They would have at least played hard and competed.
I love those guys, even Draymond. I don't think it would've mattered. They're old guys playing in a young man's NBA.

Minny came out lifeless ..thought ant would be more aggressive tonight


They got 60+ off their bench in game 4 and still lost. Series ended Monday when they couldn’t pull that one out.

Gobert is a huge liability this series. Unless on offense and defense

They would have lost. They would not have laid down and quit like this in an elimination game.

This is it right here. They got incredible games out of McDaniels, Alexander-Walker, Divincenzo, and a decent game from Gobert and wasted it because Ant and Randle might as well have stayed in the locker room.

You don't get performances like that from your role players often and they blew it. If it's 2-2 right now, this game is no big deal because you go back to Minnesota to tie it up in 2 days. Instead...it's game over once this arse whipping goes final.

OKC's top 3 got it done the other night and they're doing it again tonight. The 3 of them have outscored Minnesota by 15 tonight

How the lakers lost to this team is a mystery


Lebron's old, Luka was out of shape, Reaves took the series off and they had nobody inside to counter Gobert.

The Wolves had the much easier route to the conference finals once Steph got hurt.

Minnesota played better offensively that quarter. They went 9-19, 4-10 on 3’s…and still got out scored by 16.

The Nuggets pushed OKC to 7 with one special player, one borderline all star level player, and a collection of decent role players. The Warriors would have likely done the same. The Pacers won’t be able to keep up either. It is time to hand OKC the trophy.

TWolves would have lost to GS if Curry wasn’t hurt

There's really no doubt about it. They struggled against GS without Curry and a half-speed Jimmy Butler until the lack of any Warrior shooting allowed Minnesota to pull away.

Doubt the Warriors would have matched up well with OKC though. Would have been a better series than this at least. Steph Curry always gives you a chance.
