    Like the wolves game plan of letting kd cook while slowing down the others . Kd getting his regardless so best to put your best defenders on guys you can slow down instead of wasting them on a guy who will score no matter how good of defense you play . Sun's will likely bounce back but if wolves continue to play elite defense while getting contributions from your bench like they did game 1 & they have a great chance to go up 2-0

    It sucks because you can tell with Haliburton it’s almost completely mental. He had the same coverage from Beverly a couple times this season and he destroyed him. Now he hasn’t been aggressive and even his decision making has been off. I’m hoping he learns how to become “the guy” during this playoff run and figures out whatever has been holding him down 55:54

    JJ, pay attention to what Jamal Murray did on his last 2 clutch shots. He went full speed right and pulled up on the second to last shot. He went full speed *right* into baseline fadeaway. On both shots, Murray square in mid air. These moves and movements were standard in MJs game. *This is why Lebron is not the GOAT; he choked; he flops; his movement does not compare to MJ; he has no bag.*

    KD. Greatest scorer ever but... people will obviously disagree, he's not enough of a modern scorer. Doesn't shoot enough threes and doesn't get enough free throws for today's NBA. 31 points on 15 shots is amazing but is it as impactful as the 30 points u get from Ant fro example, when most of it comes from threes? Idk
