This series has been wild because we have a game 7 but every game is just one team beating the piss out of the other.
It feels like only 2 games weren't blowouts
The juxtaposition of ANT and Joker is so good in this series. Can’t wait for Game 7.
Huge Wolves fan, but it is so freaking hard to hate on Joker. I don't know how Shaq and others do it 😂😂😂
@@Phizzo4realunbridled racism helps them. I’m also a wolves fan. And not appreciating this guy in his prime is just sad.
@@Phizzo4realreal nuggets fans have a lot of respect for ant so this game can go either way may the best team win.
@@Phizzo4realwolves nuggets is peak NBA, The future and the present best player in the league. Feel like as a fan of neither team, whoever wins game 7 will end up winning it all.
@@michaelfox3940 "Unbridled racism" is so over the top. Stop it.
I knew this series was going to be a real banger. Great job, Rich.
The T-Wolves fell behind 9-2 last night before hitting the disinterested Nuggets with a crazy 27-2 run. In the 4th quarter, they hit them with a 20-0 run. That was the difference in the game - 45 points!
Nuggets totally had em at 9-2!!!!
Lol I'm joking.
The Lt. Weinberg comment at 2:14 was perfect.
These are the best two teams in the playoffs!
This is a good series is the best series this year
Please let game 7 come down to the final shot. This series needs a nailbiter!
As a Wolves fan I wouldn’t mind another game 6 outcome for game 7. My heart can’t take a final shot game 7 lol
Yes It Does 👍
It did
I'm a Nuggets fan, and it ain't over 'til it's over. But, I don't feel good about game 7. Denver will have to be a lot more inspired than they were in game 6 if they have any chance of winning.
I’m a Wolves fan and none of us feel confident about going into Denver for a winner take all.
Feels like either team could just put a beating on the other again, and we never know which team is going to do the beating on any given night.
Feel like whoever wins Game 7 on Sunday, will win it all.
If T-Wolves keep playing like they did last night, they will be champions.
“You Lt. Weinberg?”
Sunday game 7 will be great game
Best A Few Good Men reference ever! 😃
TWOLVES IN 7 🐜🐺👊
This series is like a heavyweight boxing match. One team throws a haymaker then the other team throws a haymaker.
If Ant drops 30 and wins game , I'm getting a pair of his shoes
I already got some they are super nice
I have 2 pair. Love them!
Don’t forget the #5 jersey. Dont need to be from Minnesota to love ant. Hes been this cool the entire time it’s been fun watching the country see truly him finally
@@jimbrewer5048 I’m not a wolves fan but I’ve followed Ant career since high school and lived in Minnesota last fall/winter so I’ve now sort of adopted them as my secondary team when my team is eliminated or not playing them
You might as well go ahead and place Ant Man's shoes on order.
Rich, you are the only one who can do a commentary on Ant Man presser...keeps me, laughing
Basketball players from GA. is another breed
Let’s go wolves!!!
Yup: rest up for last game : go 100% effort!
what legendary defense, Denver missed 50 open shots?!
Whatever makes you sleep at night, pal! Murray is 7 for 40 in the last two games. I'd call it the defense of the Wolves the reason why Denver is dead broke from the field.
@@cryptoOFkingz do you know how to read, I am not writing about contestant shots, I am talking about open shots...Where is your defense last 3 games?! Cut the BS. Denver was terrible in any aspect, it's because of Denver, not because of the Wolves.
@@racimegacar minnesota played bad and lost by 8. You're saying the defending CHAMPS lost by 45 solely on them playing bad and the Wolves had absolutely nothing to do with that?
@@cryptoOFkingz Yes.
I watch Denver 9 yrs, they had those kind of lost many times, where they played completely negative in any way...Team like Detroit, Wasington, SA, Orl...beat them...Minnesota played just one regular game, Denver was disquasting.
@racimegacar you should be concerned with denver losing by 45 in a game 6 against a championship level team. Do you think this is a joke? Denver beat them last year without Naz and McDaniels, and on top of that, most of the players said mn was the hardest team they faced. MN is at full strength, and we all are witnessing the potential of their team. Minnesota is hungry and wants to beat them! They remember last year and want to avenge themselves of that series loss. This game 7 is a serious game with more on the line. This ain't game 3 thru 5 where they aren't forced to play like this Is their last game. They won't play relaxed! I'm sure of it!!
I wouldn't really go all in those "Ant knew they were coming back". Nah, that's nothing. One of many things great with Ant is that he's always talking, win or lose, he'll believe it and he'll say it.
That's just who he is, and I wish we had more of guys like him.
The series has been controlled by whether the refs allow MN to play defense or not. Simple. They did let them Games 1 and 2, then didn't for 3 games, then did let them again for Game 6 (to bring it to 7).
Tomorrow, MN won't be allowed to play defense so that the defending champs win. MN is too small market to be allowed to take out defending champs with a 3 time MVP
Assuming Jamal's calf is not worse, I think the Nuggets win solidly in game 7.
After getting killed by 45 points? Nah, this is going to be close
Who?
And now an alleged elbow injury I don’t buy the calf strain either. Murray posterized LeBron after it got announced
This wasn’t just the Wolves playing well…Denver played like absolute dog sh!t in that game…especially Murray and Porter Jr. Porter has been dang near invisible this entire series…and Murray hasn’t been great in any of these games either. What a disgrace that game was.
Yeah bc Denver is just trash! You can think they just played bad and Minnesota wasn't the reason for that. It was a game 6 in the second RD and you say they just played bad hahaha ok. The game was over by the end of the 1st quarter!
@@cryptoOFkingz trash teams don’t spank their opponents 3 games in a row when they’re down 0-2. Denver had a terrible game..partially because of Minnesota’s play..and more because they played terrible.
Such a disgraceful effort by the Nuggets. Between starting point guard Jamal Murray and the three bench players that are allowed a few meaningful minutes in these playoffs (Christian Braun, Reggie Jackson, and Justin Holiday), the combined shooting percentage was 20% (5 for 35). That is just puh-THETIC!
I don't think the T-Wolves held the Nuggets to 70, the Nuggets held themselves to 70 by shooting like garbage the whole game. This has been the Nuggets problem all 12 games of these playoffs. Nuggets had plenty of open looks at the basket and missed pretty much all of them. T-Wolves had a smart gameplan though. They noticed that the Nuggets have no one playing well other than Jokic so they just clamped down on him and dared the rest of the team to beat them. Sadly the rest of the team can't score. The shooting numbers for the Nuggets in the playoffs this year are horrible other than Jokic. Even Jokic is shooting an embarrassing 27% from 3.
WE GOT JADEN MCDANIELS
You can tell Jokic is just simmering at that table, he is most definitely NOT cool with it.
The bench is useless and Jamal disappeared as always. Jokic deserves to be on a better team.
Ant had Murray in his pocket
You're a homer, like most people. Denver wins game 7 and Murray stars. What then? Do you say he disappeared "as always"?
@@Anthony-hu3rj Ant man may start guarding him before the anthem starts
@@Anthony-hu3rj he didn't win, so your hypothetical is pointless, and because he will still disappear as always I don't need to change anything. Stop eating paint chips.
I love how Nikola uses English better than us lol. They need him to clarify. "A great loss". Great doesnt mean positive or good. It means SIZE. This was a HUGE (great) loss.
The Nuggets don't deserve to advance with that useless bench of theirs. They're lucky that they have two days off before Game 7 so the starters will be ready to each play 40 minutes or more.
I don't think Rich understand basketball, these same teams will be in the playoffs for years to come and one will have a streak, thts how it works, always will and always have.....this is the first time in like 15 years there's actual parity, like if u just don't know and can't make an educated guess off of information available, thts on u, not the nature of the sport
Funny this guy just calling himself out unironically. You said it was a wrap. Yawn
There’s no way Nuggets are losing.
I wouldn't celebrate to fast,
IM GLAD MINNESOTA HAD A MONSTER GAME, BECAUSE THEY WONT HAVE ONE BACK TO BACK! NUGGETS WIN GAME 7, PERIOD! EDWARDS BRAGGED COMING BACK TO DENVER FOR GAME 7, HOWEVER, HE DIDNT GUARANTEE HE’D WIN, DID HE, THAT WAS RHETORICAL! GAME 6 WAS THEIR CHAMPIONSHIP AND THEY KNOW IT!!
The nuggets are the defending champs and the favorites to win it all. All of the pressure is on the nuggets who just lost by 45. Wolves are hungry and won twice in Denver already. Wolves in 7
🤡
Hey Dick, why did female Butker jerseys sell out
Because there are conservative women. It’s really not hard to understand.
@@RabidMNPandano duh it’s Rich who doesn’t get it
@@RabidMNPandareading comprehension take a tad bit of brains I guess
Because some women like being their husband's property
anybody watch this game? Curious cuz the comments paint the picture that the Wolves defense "forced" or "held" the nuggets to miss every shot they took. Yep the Nuggets effort was an embarrassment but the truth is the Nuggets beat themselves and there is much speculation that it was intentional
what?
Lmao
Dumb.
I don't remember hearing about how lucky the Nuggets were during their 3 game stretch when they were making every shot. Wolves forced them to miss, yes.
It was intentional? You are delusional.
These conspiracy theories don’t make sense.
Having professional athletes choose to lose in embarrassing fashion? Big stretch, there…
I know what it means for game 7. Games 2, 3 and 6 were all flukes. These teams are as evenly matched as it gets this year. Nobody is punking anybody in game 7. Whoever wins it will have actually earned it. The Wolves fans with their chests out thinking you are big and bad right now. Better suck em in if you think for a second the Nuggets are going out on a whimper like that. That was a half assed effort and everyone knows it. Game 7 we will see who truly is the best team.
Hope they enjoyed their last win of the season. Denver gonna kick them to the curb Sunday!
After the topsy turvy craziness of the first 6 games and you come out with exclamation mark prediction. You're precious.
Everyone has a comment on an over hyped spectacle of financial grifting as neighborhoods fall apart watching sporting events.
Damn bro, that's crazy. You doing anything about it other than whining here?
@@WolframeHDX Exactly. He's on CZcams watching Rich Eisen and also takes time to lay down a comment.
Denver literally didn't even try to compete. I know when you get the "memo" from the league to ease up you're supposed to sell it lol. They simply shut down and made it look like EXACTLY what it was!! Maybe that was the Nuggets way of saying to the league without actually saying to the league...."there...now you have your game 7".
If we’re selling crazy conspiracy theories here’s an alternative one: The league contacted Minnesota after game two and begged them to let Denver win a few games and they did then this is what it looks like when Minnesota actually competes.
OR Neither of those things happened.
I mean what are the odds another Porter brother would be involved in diminishing the integrity of the game?
Denver is going to win by 12 points game 🎯🎯 7 🧲🌍🙏
Simply the nuggets beat themselves, i watched the game, The nuggets did not suffer from an amazing defense, sure some shots were blocked but majority of it was missed shots
Jokic is a student of the game - always learning. This blowout will not happen in Denver, he won't allow it. All ANT man did was piss him off, and Game 7 will finally see what the Joker can do.
Don't worry Rich Wolves will be embarrassed since well their last blowout win, was returned with a blowout loss next game
the nba is more scripted than professional wrestling
Look scripted
A 45-point loss looks scripted? What world do you live in?
I know:
If the wolves get to keep gobert near the hoop. If they’re able to scheme him close to the hoop, and their offense is functional (basically guaranteed if they just Rudy him when he’s open, or Denver chooses to overplay and take him away. We’ll see if those things occur
