Was rooting for the Wolves. Good game overall, refs kinda ruined it per usual. Neither team played to full strength so should be a good series
Worth a shot but their minutes don't line up, and it's probably not a solution anyways.
For the whole Luka era before this trade deadline, the Mavs would have 0 chance to win a game where they didn't hit more 3's than the opponent.
Crazy how fast the whole team identity changed.

Biggest thing for me was just the Mavs composure in this game. Down almost the whole time, never panicked.
Lively made a rookie mistake there at the end with the travel, but his confidence will increase as the series goes on. 3 point shooting will improve.
But this Wolves team can definitely go up another level. Id still pick them to win, their ceiling is higher and Ant is a great leader. I expect a huge Minnesota win in game 2.

I also assume the Wolves won't get dominated in the paint like that again.
they were shooting over 70% in the paint most of the game, everyone seems to ignore the insane 2pt %
My god, I joked about it with coworkers but we are steps closer to Kyrie's revenge. I wanted to go to a Nugs/Celtics game but Kyrie in Boston would rival Lebron getting booed in Boston.
I wouldn't bet on their 3 point shooting too much. They've had a lot of games after the trade deadline look like this. Poor shooting and all.
Nice call spyder, I tailed Mavs ML at the last minute. Should've took Luka as well!
I hate it because I can feel myself softening a bit towards Kyrie. Need to get that energy back.
Guy is absolutely insufferable, and it's pretty gross they have him commentating on the series against a dude he choked out and shits on every chance he gets.
I still can't believe the Nugs blew a 20 point lead in a game where Ant was terrible at least offensively. Just insane. But yeah the MJ shit with Ant is just too much. It's like the media saw the memes and jokes and have run with it.
In the first place, Ant reminds me more of DWade than MJ but I guess that doesn't sell headlines.
They blew a massive lead vs Spurs in an important seed spot game. That raised alarm bells in terms of Nugget's ability to put a stomp on opposition momentum.

All this talk about Kyrie potentially getting to the Finals and getting his revenge on the C's... when what I actually want to see is Luka vs. his old pal Kristaps, aka Tingus Pingus. Fricking Tingus Pingus! You'e had this coming, buddy!
Please, please let this happen 😭

And as they showed on Inside The NBA, it was the right call.
He isn't even close to kobe at his age. We skipped straight to MJ.

Its not exactly fair as Kobe had Shaq but i'm comparing how there games compare aesthetically and his foot work.

Kinda stunning stat. This game went against shot variance.
He's not even interesting either. He's Shaq but worse. At least Shaq was able to become somewhat self deprecating.
I expect a huge change of game plan defensively from Minnesota.
