Stephen A. Smith, Bob Myers and Kendrick Perkins join me on NBA Countdown to react to the Minnesota Timberwolves' dominant 115-70 Game 6 win over the Denver Nuggets to force a Game 7 in the Western Conference Semifinals and discuss what they need to do to win Game 7.

Sunday game probably be better than the actual championship game 😂
RIGHT
Big facts
Thys is da finals.. for da next 3yrs..
Nah for real
💯💯
Game 7 gonna be a movie
lets hope ANT's father MJ will be in attendance
yup
Yea and Denver will win they want jokic vs luka
@@jimbojimbo6626 true
Ant got so much swagger. He going to posterize Jokic to close out the game and move on to the WCF.
Watching….
hopefully 🤣
Took out KD, Jokic, Luka, and Tatum then he is automatically with the greats
lmfao we're in the denial stage
@@q4life551No he ain’t.
Stephen A : I owe the Timberwolves an apology
😂😂😂 yup
He always has to apologize to somebody.
@@gabbyym.8672Rs
Steven A owes every fan an apology for the torrent of BS he has vomited on the community for decades. And all of us owe ourselves an apology if we ever cared even once about Steven A opinion. With all the other content and podcasts these days the quality of takes and opinions has shown Steven A for what he is.
Nuggets Wolwes is the best series for years !!
This series been lopsided every match. Dont look at series score. Every match has been just a wipe out
I'd rather see 4 close games in a sweep than this crap
@@veganpotterthevegan well, game one was the best game of the playoffs for now, or at least top3
cap
It really is.
Please...please! No blowout win on game 7. Let us fans savor this one. May the best team win!
Coming from a Celtics fan ☘️
Whoever wins this series beats the Celtics in the finals, lol. Or Mavs/OKC
@@DrunKao that’s some wild assumptions. Everyone in the west is tired now and the Celtics haven’t even been trying yet
that was honestly really well spoken by Stephen A.
yeah post game coverage, love it!
This is gonna be a classic David vs Goliath match. I can't fkn wait
No its not! Every game so far has been a blowout so this one will be no different, it just who will be doing the blowout!
Terrible analogy. Wolves have gone something like 12-14 against the nuggets the last couple years.
Terrible analogy LOL
Denver is David in the analogy right? Outside of Jokic, denver doesn't have a single all-star
@@agwinmooreexactly
LET’S GO WOLVES!!! 💪🏀🐺
Excellent chemistry throughout this episode!
ESPN HAD TO MATCH STEPHEN A. SMITH THOUGH LOVE THE PINK
Just the right shade of pink, lol. Not too bright or too dark
Great chemistry on this segment 10/10 !
Denver really hasn’t been shooting as well as last season, and that’s a tough reality for a Jokic pass-first style. Murray is now worn down in the long series, games 1 and 2 haunt this game 7 now, and KAT has finally settled into Ant’s soil
Role players shoot well at home and shoot bricks on the road. Denver takes Game 7. All those regular season wins pay off.
Bruce Brown is the difference, that's it. He was big-time for them
@@FSVR54 and jeff green
@@DaryMatera wrong wolves won two road games nuggets won 2 road games if wolves try harder they will win team that try hardest will win
@@FSVR54 Not a good sign for the pups as role players invariably wilt on the road - especially in high pressure games.
If the Timberwolves win this series, people will never stop comparing them to Jordan.
Malika got the best suit on the set
she lookin hella fine
@@98sniffShes the kind of girl if you look for more than 5 seconds youll end up with a sexual harassment suit. Dangerous and petty. Hard pass.
NBA didn’t suspend Murray because they wanted this outcome. It’s despicable and incredibly transparent what is happening. Wolves would have gone up 3-0 if Murray rightfully was suspended. It’s so sad that this is happening.
The Nuggets won by 25+, Murray absence wouldn't had change anything
Stop crying it’s a great series
Win it on the court. No suspensions if it can be avoided. Fuck is wrong with you? They're not pushing jokic, ant is a lot more marketable.
3-0 or not, what he did was unacceptable and unsportsmanlike. You can all cry all you want but in-game tantrums should not be tolerated. NBA crucifies players because of actions that are referee/media disrespect but this action just gets a fine.
A championship ring with no asterisk.
I’ve never seen the media hate a team that won a championship and mvp like this😂
I agree just cant understand that yet.
Because it never happened that some dude whos not from america is leading that particular team. Little bit of race and nationality, both reasons. In case of djokovic is only nationality. People outside of america especially from the eastern europe feel that and know that. But fair and good people in america can only sense that something is wrong, but they cannot explain it.
Yall nevee hurd if the warriors 😂😂😂😂😂😂 nah yall new fans
@@albertdaley9093 Not like this they never wanted other teams to beat them when they were on the run
@@travionjohnson3975 you must dont be bizzy it was pure hate on golden state media was sayin they cant win again cuz kd left also they try to discredit themn
T wolves win this series the Jordan comparisons will never stop😂😂😂
Start strong, take control, and win the 1st Q - and T'Wolves win game 7. After 3 straight games the Nuggets again flatlined in the 1st (turnover points off Jokic-Murray pick and rolls kind of stunned the Nuggets onslaught) and never recovered.
I'm still pissed off at the Wolves being allergic to prosperity. ALL they had to do was win ONE of those first 2 home games. They already did the hard part at that point by winning the first 2 in Denver. Then the fools blew both games at home. If it was the other way around and the Nuggets were the lower seed, this series would have been over by now with 2 opening road wins. I want Wolves to win but until they pull it off, I can't bet on them in game 7. If both teams go all out and play aggressive, it should be a win for Minnesota but they are too inconsistent in this series.
True. It's gonna come down to what McDaniels does or doesn't. He's the X factor
Absolutely they cud have bagged 1 ,counting on Reid and Mac Daniel’s to have big games then they have the championship
Game rig bro they played so sloopy clearly throw away those two games
Minnesota is going to lose this game. I wrote them off when they dropped both their home games back to Denver.
denver still a superior team thats why
May the best team win
I remember when I actually listened to the shows with Steven A on ESPN and actually liked them. Crazy how opinions change when you have something to compare. Now with all these podcasts and other shows I can’t even imagine caring enough to ever watch the full show.
So glad Malika stick to just basketball related issues rather than the opposite
Man, if the Wolves can win game 7, they can propelle their franchise into the upper echelon of the NBA. Let's go, Wolves.
I do think that T-Wolves has what it takes to advance further.
This is the most exciting Game 7 since 2016 man🔥
The Wolves have the potential to move up into the NBA's elite division if they can win Game 7. Come on, Wolves.
Without watching the video all I say is.... the power of friendship
I'm going to Vegas with this one ML on DENVER HEAVY i've seen this many times and I can see this one will go the same way!!!!!
all the sports media wants wolves to lose game 7 wolves have to fight to win game 7 hope refs don't cheat for the nuggets
That ain't the truth!! They routing for ant. Denver is still disrespected, the narrative after going down 2 nil was they will get swept!! But I believe in jokic and the team, like he said in response to perk a few years back "they maybe only scored 2 points a game, they have never felt the pressure!" He has and I believe in him.
Stop it. All America wants Wilves to win so they can crown Ant as new face of Nba. They are pushing him like an prostitute!!
No, the league wants Minnesota to win because of the black propaganda embodied in Ant (who is great btw).
@@strelicijum bro what ?!?!!
Why does this feel like the NBA finals people
Man this game is gonna have nerves flying for both fan bases. I’m already nervous 😭
We'll be there Sunday
This series looks like Finals game
Nuggets will see it out in game 7. Book it.
Pressure is all on the nuggets now
Facts Sunday game is the superbowl for the nba this year !!
OKC vs TWolves, Gaah Damn, that's a true battle for the West
What song at the end?
Song: My Friends (NBA on ESPN Remix)
Artist: Ty Dolla $ign and Mustard
DONT DOUBLE TEAM NIKOLA JOKIC, LET HIM PLAY ONE ON ONE.
Basketball is not a one on one sport
No fr, it’s impossible to stop him but as long as Towns keeps a body on him then he’s gonna get tired like he did here in game 6. I like the Towns vs. Jokic 1on1
Make jokic get the ball out his hand before he cross court i can't believe teams allow him to walk full court while his guys go set up on offense disrupt the play before it get started this allow your players to get set on defense while he's being harassed and trying to make a decision where to go with the ball at this point he to far to thro lob passes toward the rim for Gordon

Minnesota needs to run the fast break and go to a 2-3 zone
Hope the Timberwolves read this. Anticipate a full court press from the Nuggets from the start of the 1st quarter on game 7. The Nuggets coach knows that the Wolves are not good passers when pressed early in their transition. They will make the Wolves make many turn-overs just like the times the Wolves lost on this series. The Timberwolves should hustle on the defensive board if they wanted to win in game 7.
I can’t believe we’re stuck with this over inside the nba after this year
Steven...you are right. Jokic is CHAMP and Denver is CHAMP....until proven otherwise
Denver is winning game 7 there is no doubt about it.
Wrong question SAS. Its how Nuggets not to lose Game 7. They are the defending champs afterall.
If the timberwolves win basketball is back
I knew it will lead this series to game 7, its business fellas its all about business😁👌🏀
What business is a 45 point blowout??
Is not going to be easy for both team to win game 7 but one must win.
Bulls Vs Pistons 1990. He gots to lose to know how to win!! McDaniels the Scottie to Ants MJ.
Come back to this next year.
I do not think game 7 will be wild as in close, I hope it is though. It was cool seeing the first 2 games because it was unexpected...however most gmaes in this series were won pretty wide margins. As fan you want to see close games not blow outs. therefore game 7 will probably be another blowout
Bob Myers telling Malika to chill with correcting peoples grammar is classic
Nuggets will win game 7 im not worried about it.
idk about murray u need him
arrogance shall tide on the side of the sore loser, thee wolves are hungry
45? Cry more
I would be were coming to whoop that ass on your floor
Exactly. Luck is always on our side. They are hobbled and weak. We are healthy and strong. Our dynasty is inevitable. No need to worry.
We all know Dlo would have been the best player on that court if he was still on the Timberwolves
Based matchup, may the best team win in the battle of demigods.
This game is probably the best game we have left.
Bob Myers looking different to his pre game chat 😂🤡
Didn't Steven A say Wolves won't win another game?
Game 7 is like Avengers: Endgame
Stephen a suit so bright, it can be seen from the moon
Denver missed a lot of open shots in first quarter, it was more about DEN bricking open shots they usually hit
Jamaal Murray on a strait jacket right now??? He's been on strait jacket since Lakers series in spite of buzzer beating shots. His FG % has been 10-30% the most.
The wolves need go with the towns & naz Reid combo on jokic. That lineup is great
Malika is doing a fantastic job 😍
Wolves eliminate the Denver nuggets in game seven.
No
@@kthafinnese Yes. Yall are done.
Nope
I hope you’re right
@@discowolf25Who's done? The wolves had there chance and blew it by losing 3 straight
Im gknna tell my grandkids game 7 is avengers endgame
Why Perkins isn't fired yet?!
Oh yes Stephen A I bet that Denver’s coach is already adjusting the fear levels as part of the gameplan for game 7, such intricate analysis of the game! Especially at Denver, that fear factor might really make a difference 💀
Sunday is the nba finals
I think the winner of this series is the team that will go to the Finals.
What did SAS say? 2:58
Well damn I guess we know who they rooting for 😂
Give us the same Ref crew for game 7, less foul calls is better for the game. If they put scott foster, tony brothers or ed malloy on the call and theres 50 fouls called, the game will be gifted to the nuggets. Let the players decide the outcome
The way the Wolves extended their defense and completely disrupted the Nuggets from getting into their offensive sets is how they must play in the winner-takes-all game 7. The Nuggets will need to hit some 3 pr shots early to loosen up their defense. (Calling all cars, calling all cars... There's an APB out for Michael Porter Jr's jump shot)
Man listen if kat n mcdaniels aren’t in foul trouble it’ll be a great game I wouldn’t be surprised if MPJ has a 5+ 3 night tho can swing the momentum
right "ant" inc. is good I'm cheering on the reigning champs nuggets.
1:25 Perk' using the word "tenacity", he can't even spell tenacity lol
Here we go again
Wolves vs OKC wcf
I’m sure SAS will give his opinion loud and proud then apologize.
Boston celtics are rooting for Minnesota thats for sure.
Why is it that when I listen, everyone wishes Denver badly, each of them cheers against and no one says what both need to do to make the game better
Anthony “Alpha” Edwards! He’s going to lead the pack to the chip.
are we going to see one close game out of seven?
Meeks❤
lets go nuggets!
If you think about it, Denver never really had to play a good team all last year during their title run outside of the Wolves, whom members of the Nuggets last year said was their toughest opponent while having Naz and McDaniels and Anderson out for that series.
"Never had to play a good team." is wild. Heat beat the Celtics which means they were better than Celtics. As simple as that. Don't downplay a championship
@@anirudhranjan2934one hit wonder nuggets
@@anirudhranjan2934Tbf Celtics weren’t all that last year. Tatum shrinks big time. A better case to say it wasn’t easy would be the lakers series. Lakers were looking nice last year
@@moetown_2088 one hit wonders that didn't lose to the Celtics in the regular season lmao
@@moetown_2088 Nuggets one hit wonder but Timberwolves are champions after just beating 1 team right? Delusional
KG needs to play to win this game 7 imo💪
Despite the fact that Towns played like Perkins, the other Wolves played well and step up.
Rudy should come off the bench and have Reid at the 4. Start the game off big defensive prowess
Nuggets bringing it home..NBA wanted 7 series game..we saw the commercial before the game started..
Yes and we see all the commercials with Anthony Edwards in them as well
That shit was funny like damn game was still close than too
KAT must score 25 or assist 10 while McDaniels is the X factor
Feels rigged to get game 7 but go Wolves vs Mavs westcon 2024!!!
Malika....she is sooooOooooo Fooinnneee
Stephen A on how the Mavs aren't gonna get past the Clippers:
You not fly with 1 suit in different colors, like a cartoon character.
He's cleannn. Stop the HATE on the brother and get you your own suit!!
@@hamzamire7425 He has the legal right to hate as long as he doesn't break a law. Did his comment break a law or attempt to excite activity that would break a law? No. So he's a law abiding citizen! You're the one who needs to stop discouraging him from utilizing the entirety of his rights under the law. We need to check your background records to see if have broken laws because you sound like a law breaker.
@hamzamire7425 I tell you this my next suit won't be Tmobile magenta I promise you that. Frfr if he didn't talk about his clothes so much, I may have never noticed that it's literally the same suit.
Game 7 keys: referee crew, defense against JOKER, DEN shooting off JOKER finding them, TIMBERWOLVES defensive gameplan.
Stephen A we seen that pink suit like 3 times in the last month in a half mr sum new everyday all day
w suit sas
How can Stephen A explain how Minnesota can win.You guys never one anything but life .
