The game of Basketball has been my passion since I was 5 years old. I grew up as a kid watching my dad's recorded VHS tapes of playoff games through the 70s and 80s, and collected all the Basketball cards. Something about the game and what it represents just hooked me from a very young age.
My love for the game only continues to grow as time goes on. I love studying and analyzing the game, with an unbiased perspective. Feel free to subscribe, follow me on social media, and celebrate this amazing game and it's rich history with me!

Minnesota and Dallas, who wins and how many games? Indiana and Boston?
Here is the link to the Clips/Shorts channel! ruclips.net/channel/UCKu_hGN3nwOkApOC90TTWWw
Dallas in 7, Celtics in 6
I’ll take the other route - Timberwolves in 7 (but wouldn’t be surprised if it went Mavs way), and agreed on Celtics in 6
@LukaIsNonFlyingLBJ amd do you know that Dallas are actually underdogs in this series?
Wolves in 7 but I could see the Mavs winning, Celtics in 6
Wolves in 5, Boston in 5
That gobert fadeaway will always be as jaw dropping as the first time I saw it
was definitely something to see
Showed it was the wolves night when he hit that then two free throws after it
Gobert hits fadeaways at a pretty similar rate to me I think XD
@@kannon1610not like that
That shot is proof the game isn’t rigged lol. You can’t rig that shit
The fact that no champion has made it past the 2nd round in the past 5 years is astonishing. Your prediction about no repeat champions was spot-on.
Puts LeBrons 8 straight finals achievement into perspective
@iamsuperior4087 8 straight finals for 2 franchises and a revolving door of teammates highlights exactly Lebron's value, agreed
@@iamsuperior4087 puts 2 3peats into a kind of perspective
@@iamsuperior4087 To be fair LeBron also followed this trend. He won a championship with the Lakers and didn't make it past the 2nd round the following year.
@iamsuperior4087 don't compare this weak ass east with this west. There's a reason brons west opponents were constantly changing but he remained the same on his side
Hitting the jokic on jokic is the most diabolical thing Rudy could’ve done 😂
Facts
Timberwolves really are and play like a pack of wolves.
The strength of the pack is the Wolf and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
Nobody goes hungry in Minnesota. Really impressed with this squad moving forward even if they fall short this year.
Thank what I love about them, they are a TEAM . PEOPLE Soooo caught up in triple doubles and scoring
When you know … you just know. T-Wolves is the Best team fighting for NBA chips. Never underestimate your opponents but every season there’s a team or two that’s a cut above all others. And I will always think of my favorite teams as underdogs with more to prove - until they’re a team with 3 championships under their belt.
The fact that Ant figured out the double team during a game 7 at 22 years old is crazy. That's the kind of thing a young player figures out in the offseason after several failed attempts in the playoffs. This kid makes the adjustment under the bright lights in the first real test he's had. Very impressive.
There is one Wolves player that told Ant to accept and love double teams, I forget which one tho
Kat in the interview with Gobert basically said *_"They got Jokic, we got Rudy & Naz."_*
that pass Anthony Edwards made to an open Jaden McDaniels is such a MJ move
Gawking on it
The way Anthony Edwards wiped his ass was so Mj like omg 😱
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 I'm sooooo tired of the comparisons, let these players be great
About the craziest passes ask Luka....when he's on QB mode.
@@Lena-ks5ni and we all know Edwards can't be a QB lol
'THERE'S MORE WAYS TO WIN A BASKETBALL GAME WHEN YOU'RE NOT JUST AN OFFENSIVE PLAYER .. I'M NOT ONE DIMENSIONAL' - ANTHONY EDWARDS
A shot to all the offensive stars and role players in the league that wanna slack on defense. I love it and I’m here for it 😂😂😂
He wasn't even special there. That's a cope. He got carried period
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 hater lol salty asf hater
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 you should maybe try watching the games instead of only looking at box scores.
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 Sorry Anthony edwards didn't fit the current agenda where a star player has to carry his team every game for some reason . Like everybody is just so entertained by big numbers and scoring outputs nowadays it's quite astonishing and now the Minnesota timberwolves, a TEAM, playing TEAM BALL, Is somehow considered carrying a singular player?
Idk why but wolves gave me same feeling as the nuggets did against lakers. Like that we going to come back and win somehow and they did it....
Same. At the half I was thinking about going to sleep because I expected the Nuggets to lose (I am a Jokić fan from Serbia, a different time zone, the game started at 2 AM Serbian time).
Me too
Without Jokic, nuggets are a lottery team. The fact that he took them to joint 1st record in the ultra-competitive West is alone making his MVP case obvious. He had to play the entire game without rest. Jamal averaged 15 for the 6 games on 30% and the rest of the team couldn't even reach 7 points in a home game 7. He needs help. He's the only all star on his team and it shows
So one bad series where he is injured and Murrays last playoffs get completely forgotten?
Typical jokic glazing tbh. The nuggets are a good team even without jokic.
Blah blah blah
@@420_blaise_it6not really tbh. Jokic is the glue of the entire squad. Without him they’re a 40 win team.
@@420_blaise_it6wanna Livestream this
bro ive never seen gobert do a fade away, i got so startled 😂
It looked accidental lmao
I've only been able to find one other clip of Gobert making a fadeaway. And that clip has 300k views [because it's equivalent with Shaq hitting a 3] and a player from the opposing bench stood up in frustration and literally threw his towel, because it's so rare for Rudy to hit a shot like that haha
Thibodeau’s teams signature: lots of love and respect from fans, lots of minutes from starting lineup, lots of injuries and … no ring
He runs his starters into the ground. As a longtime Wolves fan, I came out of his time in MN thinking he's an extremely over-rated coach. He basically just tried to force his game plan from the Bulls onto a MN team that it didn't apply to. He did a terrible job.
as a knicks fan for 55 years, i agree.
he gets his guys to play hard-nosed defense, but he has zero offensive strategy other than dribble dribble iso-ball, and his player rotations are usually horrible. ALL the injuries can't be blamed on his refusal to use his bench, but some can. whatever that says about current nba players' conditioning is kind of beside the point.
it's like thibs is allergic to ball and player movement. i think brunson is great, a scoring force with some dog in him and pretty damn clutch. but i f*cking HATE watching him dribble the clock down while looking for his shot, not finding open teammates and forcing a shot. when he's making them of course all is good, but when he's not... i want to strangle him and thibs.
now that i have no....horse left in this race, i'm gonna root for the wolves. i like them
Lemme guess a lebalco fan?
IM a Bulls fan so u know I don't want any team in the East to win
@@mattrose1365 Denver fan more likely.
KAT and Gobert will upgrade their legacy big time if they pass Dallas
They gonna stomp Dallas to me..
Amen brother, the bar I was at with total strangers was absolutely electric during the 4th quarter for MN 🙏😅
Bro I kept refreshing and waiting for your upload!
Doing too much
Thank you Jonny! The game was insane, can’t believe the Nuggets blew their lead and led the Timberwolves get back on defense to determine the outcome of the game/series.
Jonny! As always, thank you! Although I was saddened that the Nuggets lost, the better team won. Shout out to Minnesota for that awesome win! Something you shared about the 70’s - there was no back to back winner in that decade. Honestly, we may be in that course if this keeps up. That kind of diversity in winning keeps us fans on the edge of our seats - that anyone at any time could win it all and I’m here for it. Fans of basketball, drink it in.
Yeah, loving this current decade of competitive parity. It felt like we were due after the super team era of the 2010s.
@@jonnyarnett agreed! And I’m glad we’re here bro!
@jonnyarnett super teams of the 2010s? Lol I'd say super teams existed way before that too. The lakers and spurs made 9 of the 10 years in the 2000s and it was only a competition between the bulls, Cs, lakers and pistons in the 80s-90s
@@iamsuperior4087 Superteam and dynasty are two different things.
@@serbarriston7177The Celtics, Lakers and Bulls were definitely super teams tho, especially if you think the Miami Heat was a super team.
For years I’ve been eating myself about NBA fans… leaving early, not having any songs sung… just “let’s go -team name-“
Damn that MSG crowd is what every NBA fanbase should aspire to be. I know you Americans don’t like soccer but you sure as hell could learn a lot from soccer clubs fanbases, and MSG crowd is the closest thing to it in the NBA
Exactly, like each fanbase has different chants and songs for their teams. Not just that, but fans will come up with chants/songs for individual players as well.
There is just much more creativity with europeans soccer/football fans.
@@diablejambe3460 I’ve been a heat fan since I was a kid, I like soccer too(not as much as basketball but I do like it a lot) my brother nurtured me to be a Manchester United fan, and I was at a match in the Old Trafford last year, meanwhile I was at (back then) AA arena, for a Heatles game back in 2013, as much good as it was, (I was also in another playoffs game in Chicago) nothing came close to the Man United match. They had songs for every player on the court…and they didn’t stop singing, standing up and cheering for a moment. (I was in a block with mostly people in their 50’s and 60’s, and they were louder than most NBA arenas, just that block alone , that wasn’t the ultras block)
76ers will be great when the old school song comes back in the cheap seats
European soccer fans can learn a thing or two from us about not chanting racist shit when it’s a black soccer player out there.
Soccer is actually growing rapidly in the US right now thanks to international stars like Messi playing in the MLS. It may not be as popular as basketball or football, but it's growing every year nonetheless
Its gonna be a Wolves/ Celtics finals & that Porzingis - Gobert matchup is gonna be interesting
Has he recovered from his injury?
T-Wolves in 6
@@alexkimani378there’s an entire series left. There’s no way he wouldn’t have recovered then
Dont forget twolves have 3 bigs not just Rudy to throw at Kristaps
Porzingis has and always will be injury-prone, and Tatum is an overrated so called superstar that shrinks and never steps up when it really matters during the playoffs especially during conference finals and finals. Wolves will destroy Celtics in 6
The Dallas disrespect!
KAT and Gobert earn my respect because of the way they never let the uninformed opinions of fans (who don't understand basketball is a TEAM game and no one can win with a bad supporting cast) get to them. They've both always been much better players, individually, than most fans realize or the media gives them credit for. It's just that now they have a good team around them, so they're winning.
KAT, in particular, earns my respect because he stayed with the team that drafted him, accepted lots of blame that wasnt his, never pointed fingers, didn't run away to join other stars, and now he's being rewarded for it. The Wolves will be competing for a ring for many years to come.
Facts and people act lime Minnesota was just a badly ran organization so what is KAT gonna do about trash management and mid players and coaching. I hope they win his haters that call him soft will eat crow
MPJ just shoots the ball everytime he gets it 😂😂😂
probably true, but that is the only reason he's out there anyway.
4:00 Totally agree about Ant and the double teams. We were getting really frustrated the 1st half watching him barely making any moves before giving up the ball...
That Rudi fadeaway sealed Denver’s fate right then and there. One of the clutchest things I have ever seen.
Facts
The first time in the modern NBA history that no former or current MVP winners are in the final four teams
love that they play defense!! Also i think league n refs are letting them play more instead constantly call fauls. Best playoffs in 15 years
Mavs in 6. McDaniels, naw and ant are great defenders but they don't have the strength to hang with luka. Naz Reid is a better Match up for him. My main concern is the rebounding and luka jumper. His jumper has been rough this post season and if that's not falling he's gonna have to go near rudy to score and if he misses, offensive rebounds are gonna be way harder when you have kat and gobert instead of chet
Did you really just say strength? Have you not been watching the t wolves? Minnesota got them clamps bro you must be making your predictions off of your emotion not the facts. Luka has been up and down the whole okc series 😆
@@kevinjustice9850 you'll see Wednesday
Thank you for the respect Johnny us Knicks fans have been through it all
If McDaniels made that dunk then it would've been the greatest game 7 ever
Hell no!
Great video, Jonny! I was rooting for the Nuggets because I like Jokic, but I'm happy for the Timberwolves. Like you, I would have been surprised if I had (before the game) heard the stats of Jokic, Murray, and Ant and heard that the Wolves won. But, as you indicated in a recent video, basketball is a team sport. One player can have an amazing game, but if most of the rest of the team doesn't step up, it won't be enough.
I think Minnesota will beat Dallas. Not sure if it will be in 5 or 6, but I think their defense will lead them to victory.
Hope you have a great week, Jonny :).
Joker about to get crushed by haters.
If so, that’ll be an instant way to out themselves as casuals. Jokic was unreal, and was the reason it went 7.
@@jonnyarnett I strongly agree. Had the Nuggets won game 7 everybody would be criticizing Rudy, KAT, and Ant for not coming back.
It’s unfortunate that Jokic’s abilities are being doubted and underrated because he’s a champion. I think next season could be something of a 2014 Spurs kind of season (I know it’s not a one-to-one comparison but it reminds me a little of it).
@@jonnyarnettyet you still put Moses above him. You're all time ranking of him is delusional and illogical
@@abiezerEscudenot Edwards. He's overrated and protected
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 Really how so?
90s basketball is back! defense also a part of the game with the wolves
I am not counting out Boston just yet
These unscripted videos are really good, Jonny! Please keep them coming, not just during the playoffs but throughout the offseason and regular season 🙌🏼
The wolves literally played like a pack of wolves. They sent different sets at Jokic and picked up Murray 3/4 court until they tired out their prey then feasted like a pack. Let’s go wolves!
Yes Payton Watson is great especially on defence but Nuggets imo should’ve kept Bruce Bowen and maybe try for another decent centre for when Jokic is off.
That doesn’t mean that TWolves are stomping on every competition because Celtics are also a major threat and I see them winning in 6.
Not sure if im new to this kinda format but i like this off-the-cuff scripting, you sound a lot more relaxed
Wolves really be out there uniting old heads and new heads with their game and intensity. Love this team, so happy for Minnesota fans
I really love this quick reaction videos, keep doing it pls Jonny
The nba makes its money with the sports books during the regular season. They aren't concerned about small markets in the playoffs because the fanbase has changed. Las Vegas is in control.
Haha the shirtless pose. Such a fun series, great video and breakdown. Cant wait for the next one!!
Bro u have the most accurate predictions
Me n my pops watched together,its been a Beautiful playoffs,Joker on had only a minute worth of rest on the bench
Denver got 5 points (5!) from their bench and they were all from Christian Braun who played harder than all of the starters not named Jokic or Murray, Denver's problem was the same as the Warriors after 2022 - they lost key bench guys and couldn't replace them and it bit them bad in the playoffs.
Hopefully they break the curse that the last 4 teams to eliminate the champs suffered and they actually win the chip.
When that Gobert fadeaway hit, i knew the nuggets are done 😂😂
Jonny is the best ❤
Some of that straying from the dubs was Ants age. As he gets older, better and more confident that'll change bug time.
As they say "Teamwork makes the Dream Work"!!!
I have them as favorites. So I'd say Antman is about to become the new FOTN 😉
This Wolves team is fucking amazing
I think they're the best team in the league, and it sucks that they might not win the chip. Sadly, there's a good chance that Boston wins it all this year, simply because they're going to be so rested thanks to their easy trip to the Finals. Of the top 5 teams in the league, 4 of them were in the West
And the best 2 teams in the league had the misfortune of meeting each other in the 2nd round. Damn. But what a fucking series that was
I believe in Bostons ability to fumble.
Also they are going to be very 3 reliant and thats probably not going to work in the finals. Down in the paint Minnys got this on wrap over Boston.
@@CryptidFlame I'm with you on that. I will never, ever underestimate that current Celtics team's ability to show up small in the big games
The Mavs have been underdogs in every series so far, and I feel people are STILL underestimating them.
If anything, don't sleep on their defense. Luka's getting healthier, and they actually have size with Gafford & Lively.
I also have the Timberwolves, but I think it's going to 6 or 7
I have the Mavs, but like you said the serie would be really close honestly
@@toshirohitsugaya857 I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Mavs won.
People keep bringing up how the team is drastically different after the trade deadline than they were the 1st half of the season, yet they keep making the mistake of treating them like they're still that 1st half team.
I think the games will be much closer than the ones in the Nuggets v Wolves series.
@@corey2232 yeah mavs keep humble and prove with the win. prove all doubter are wrong, and keep evolving game after game. I think we gonna see the better mavs team at WCF and Final. Every mavs series have make new hero, like kyrie and PJ against clippers, DJJ and DLive against thunder and other player still step up too like hardy, gaford THJ (at some moment). Hope that momentum keep continue, lets go mavs
Jokic tired
Jamal hurt
MPJ going through it
KCP is ass
Gordon dissapeared
Recipe for the best team in the nba to lose a series by 8 points
We'll be back
Hopefully not with KCP and mpj
The wolves are very similar to the 2004 pistons which was known for suffocating physical defense. If the wolves manage you should make video comparing this team to the 04 pistons both teams are built of the same blueprint imo. Great comparison by u
Dude, Knicks fans wouldn't leave because they paid 8 - 60k for those seats lol
Lmao. Good point 🤣
The hardest thing will be the mavericks, because now they might believe they are destined, and that is fatal...and let's not ignore the celtics...
Its fine, underestimate the Mavs... like every expert did before the 2nd round.
Just for your information. Dallas played just one game against the Wolves with Luka and Kyrie this season. Our starting (and only) Center was Dwight Powell in that game. And we won it. The Wolves also never played THIS Dallas team with Gafford/Washington. Means we know their team, they do not know ours.
Long story short... Dallas in 6.
I was very disappointed to see Jokic throw the towel with about 35 seconds to play in a game 7.
Man, I forgot to mention that, but it felt like they laid down kind of early!! Felt especially awkward as Reggie Miller was calling the game, who proved that you can make up that deficit in that amount of time. Smh.
@@jonnyarnett Absolutely. Even with 13 seconds left there was still a chance. At leadt pressure the ball, send a double team etc.! But Jokic already looked liked he untied his shoes with 30+ seconds to go.
Back in the day they wouldn't even do that in a regular season game. Whenever I try to really enjoy new school basketball things like this frustrate me again.😪
The one with the most points at the end wins. Defense is always more important then people give it credit sometimes. Better offense at the end is what wins.

That Gobert fadeaway made we go crazy. Was not expecting that
I am disgusted at the fact I’ve seen two polls on RUclips saying that over half of people Twolves are winning it all😂. Celtics gonna STOMP whoever they face
I really like this timeline where franchises that historically have not had a lot of success suddenly become the power houses of the NBA. It's really refreshing and something the NBA sorely needed after the dominance of LeBron and Curry for so long. I don't know how realistic it is, but I'd love to see a Pacers vs. Timberwolves final!
This game was utterly insane... what a game 7 🔥
How cool would a Wolves vs Pacers Finals be? Great offense vs great Defense
T-Wolves are looking good right now but statistically the '24 Celtics are the 4th most dominating team in NBA history based on point differential, which puts them behind only the '72 Lakers, '71 Bucks and '96 Bulls. They are in the driver's seat and the title is theirs to lose.
I can’t believe we did it. Lets go wolves!!
I predict this era of NBA will be like the 1970s NBA. A transitionary yet fun era. No repeat champions existed in that decade. Even Knicks and Celtics only won two one seperate seasons not consecutively.
Way too soon ... people are talking about Ant, but the real MJ successor is Luka.
As a die-hard Pistons fan, I appreciate the correlation but this Timberwolves team is way freaking better! I love that 2014, the most unique team in the history of the league since say the dawn of the superstar era with Bill Russell. The only team to win a championship without a true superstar.
I'm honestly rooting for the Pacers, I only have the right pieces to win the whole thing, of course my first team was Denver. I also think it'd be interesting to see what happens if Luka wins, I think there'll be a lot of Legacy talks after.
Watching ANT and the Wolves take on Denver was a wild ride! Speaking of watching, did anyone else catch those questionable calls in the Indiana-Knicks series? It's frustrating, but let's hope for fairer officiating going forward. Anyway, let's also give a shout out to the Knicks fanbase as they've been through a lot. Here's hoping the Knicks give the Celtics a run for their money - a glimmer of hope for us Lakers fans in this disappointing season! And kudos to the Wolves for that epic Game 7 comeback against Denver. ANT might not have had his best night, but their depth truly shined through!
This was a great series. Thought the Nuggets were gonna pull it out but it just didn't happen. The Timberwolves were the better deeper team and had the right personnel to stop the Nuggets.
I have an idea for a video series for you Jonny. I think it might be fun for you to make a video for each playoff team that gets eliminated telling us what they need to do to possibly win the championship next year. You could end the series by describing what you think the eventual champions need to do to repeat.
The effect of losin brown 🤷
I like Jokic and the Nuggets. But goddamn what a team the Wolves have become. Ant is it.
I've gotta give KAT his flowers.
I've never been his biggest fan, but credit where it's due - he pulled them through.
If he played like that more often, he would be All-NBA.
I got boston winning it its just seems everything opened up for them and they are very well equipped for dallas or Minnesota
Mavs in 6, I have a good feeling about them (totally no bias at all)
The Nuggets need a backup center. The conspiracy theory about them trying to boost Jokic’s advanced stats has to be true because no way they think it’s okay for 35 year old Deandre Jordan to be their backup
Team victory …
6 Wolves scoring in double figures vs 2 Nuggets
77% of Denver’s scoring was from Jokic / Murray
Wolves:
McDaniels - 23 / 6 / 1 -> 2 steals, 1 block
Gobert - 13 / 9 / 1 -> 1 steal, 2 blocks
Towns - 23 / 12 / 2 -> 2 steals, 1 block
Conley - 10 / 8 / 4 -> 2 steals
Edwards - 16 / 8 / 7 -> 2 steals
Reid - 11 / 4 / 1 -> 2 blocks
Nuggets:
Gordon - 4 / 4 / 2 -> 1 block
Porter Jr - 7 / 9 / 0 -> 2 blocks
Jokic - 34 / 19 / 7 - 1 block
Murray - 35 / 3 / 3
Caldwell - 5 / 6 / 3 -> 2 steals, 1 block
Braun - 5 / 3 / 3 -> 1 block
Let's not jump the gun on the "Team of Destiny".
Everyone wrote off the Nuggets series as another sweep after the Wolves jumped out to a 2-0 lead on decisive wins.
I'm hoping they win but as a Minnesotan, we're conditioned to not get ahead of ourselves because when we do, the bottom drops out from under us.
We've enjoyed this series win but we're not using the word "destiny". Especially after the big choke after the Vikings' "Minneapolis Miracle" against the Saints.
I think Ant wasn’t trying to force anything. It was early and he is still young. What I have noticed from Joker fans that I haven’t seen before is criticizing a player on the winning team. Like since when do we focus on that? Sometimes great players have off nights and it’s how their teammates respond that makes the difference. Ant wasn’t scoring but he made up for it on defense. That’s what you would want from your start player. Find other ways to contribute. But for Denver it seems like people are going out of their way to make excuses for them. They aren’t deep, the other players didn’t step up. How about the wolves were the reason they didn’t step up with their league leading number 1 defense.
well u were right ab the series ending in 5
Lol, well there’s that 🤣
U got a new sub
The game 7 of Raptors and Sixers is more dramatic ending than Wolves vs Nuggets
I was hoping for you to say the Dallas Mavericks
they're prepared, they're good, they have size and depth and they have ANT.
nuggets had a very strange series but yesterday they got shut down.
the series with the Mavs is likely to be easier.
Ugghhhhh,
IDK
I DON’T KNOW 😂😂😂
As an OG OG basketball head (all those videos of guys in the 70’s, I actually remember watching many of them play.
I do have rooting interest (Celtics and Spurs~ been supporting both longer than most of you have been alive 😂, )
I digress, I “FEEL” strongly that this is the Mavs year. Nothing more than a gut instinct.
I honestly thought the TWolves were the one team that had a legit shot of knocking off the Nuggets, stated this a lot on your channel,😂Lol.
I’ve also been keeping a close eye on the Mavs the second half of the season, and their bigs have been pretty damn good as well.
Although I still LOVE ❤my Celtics, I just think whoever wins the West will take out my fave Celtics…
I won’t be mad, nor surprised…
I LOVE❤THIS GAME!
I have totally enjoyed this renaissance of the NBA the later half of the into the playoffs.
It seems the competition is BACK!
I agree ! The TWolves have a pack of DAWGS! On defense. The wings sheesh.
I wonder if fans know ANT was the highest rated wing defender in the NBA in the regular season.
Jalen McDaniels was highly rated as well.
Let’s go Celtics!!!!
As a Pacers fan, I’m super but it seems like it the first time that the league is hating us, maybe the Miller Era but now we got so much hate
Man I love these new “reaction” style vids man you sound so normal. The written videos sound pretty robotic just being honest. Great video man
More of these non-scripted videos please!❤
Imagine a Pacers vs T’Wolves Finals - best offense vs best defense
Why so low on Boston?
Everybody is discounting the mavs way too soon. I can't wait for them to get to the finals and shut all these idiots up.
While I appreciate the props, as a Minnesotan, _no Team of Destiny here, thank you._ That label is a jinx.
Gotta keep it grounded and level. We are absolutely celebrating here today, but the Mavericks are going to be no easy test either. Time to face two more of the greats of this age of the NBA.
Watch them lose to Dallas….
The fall of the warriors superteam was the start of the greatest nba era. Parity, parity, parity. We don’t know who’s winning year after year and so many teams have great depth that simply stacking squads with stars isn’t sufficient because it’s no longer a top heavy league.
👏👏 GO, T-Wolves - All the Way to NBA Chip. Been saying since Wolves sent KD-Suns packing. No fluke there. This Wolves team with great defense is formidable and ready for the biggest stage with the pressure cooker turned on.
No knock on Jokic/Murray (and I really like them too) but it’s a Team sport at the end of the day and Wolves is just a better team in my opinion before the series started. They are the BEST team right now.
I also like Doncic - Mavs so I get to see two my favorite teams facing off.
My first team is the Warriors and unfortunately they lack the firepower this season.
